Frequently asked questions

How meaningful is the Buckhead vs. Midtown rent gap?
Trophy assets in both submarkets trade at broadly comparable rents; the differentiation is tenant culture (Buckhead more finance/legal, Midtown more tech/media) rather than economics.
Is the Downtown CBD recoverable?
Significant adaptive reuse and conversion is in early stages, but absorption recovery is unlikely before 2027-2028. Downtown trades at a 40-50% discount to Midtown trophy.
What is the impact of MARTA on rents?
MARTA-served trophy buildings now command a measurable premium of roughly 10-15% over otherwise-comparable car-dependent Class A — a recent shift driven by post-2022 commute economics.
