The total available sublease space decreased for three consecutive quarters. For the first time since Q4  2021, the sublease market has recorded positive absorption, totaling 330.2K SF.

Over the next 3 quarters, 800K SF of active subleases will expire.  And a total of 2.9M SF of active subleases are set to expire before the end of 2025 or 34% of all sublease space on the market.
