Read the bifurcation

Yokohama's broad Class A index reads 6.8% vacancy and trends flat. That headline masks a real bifurcation — trophy product (Minato Mirai 21) is structurally tight; older Class A and Class B carry the long tail. Cycle decisions should be made at the submarket and tier level, not at the headline.

Time your decision

For occupiers up at renewal: a softening market favours staying or relocating to better-quality stock at attractive terms. A tightening market favours early renewal and locking in expansion options.
