Odessa is a relatively small market, containing 12.9 million square feet of industrial space. Thanks to the resiliency in oil prices in 2023, the oil-rich Odessa market has bucked the national trend as vacancy rates have remained relatively steady through the end of the year. For Q4 2023, the vacancy rate sat at 9.5 percent, down only 20 basis points year-over-year. Despite availability tightening, market rent growth continues to slow, up just 3.4 percent annually for 2023. However, with only about 63,000 square feet under construction (representing less than 1.0 percent of current inventory), market rents and vacancies should largely be unaffected by new supply for the foreseeable future (CoStar).
Although crude oil prices have pulled back in recent months, market fundamentals suggest prices will be elevated in the near future. Given the recent oil cuts by Saudi Arabia and Russia (the top two oil exporting nations), oil prices have more room to move up as global oil demand is projected to outpace supply. Adding to the upward pressures on oil prices is the rebuilding of oil stocks from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (which previously fell to 1983 levels). Even with the potential threat of recession, the near-term outlook for oil looks bright, which is good news for the Odessa industrial market.
Located in West Texas, the Midland-Odessa metro is considered to be an energy capital, as the Permian Basin is one of the biggest oil fields in the world and is home to some of the largest petroleum-producing companies. The metro consists of Martin, Midland, and Ector counties. The public sector is a top job provider, but the private sector is the economic driving force. The two largest cities are Midland, with over 140,000 residents, and Odessa with roughly 123,000 residents.
