What does the Orlando commercial real estate market look like?
Orlando's commercial real estate market extends well beyond its tourism base, with the Lake Nona Medical City attracting major healthcare and life sciences tenants, and the University of Central Florida Research Park generating demand for tech-oriented office space. The International Drive corridor remains the hospitality epicenter, but submarkets like Downtown Orlando, Maitland Center, and Lake Mary have diversified the office market. Industrial demand has surged along the Florida Turnpike and SR-429 corridors as distribution companies seek central Florida positioning. The metro's population growth — consistently among the top five nationally — underpins strong multifamily and retail fundamentals.

- ●Theme park and hospitality ecosystem along International Drive and surrounding corridors
- ●University of Central Florida Research Park technology and defense tenants
