However, the rise in rental rates has led to increased vacancies.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"200\" data-end=\"327\">\"Overall, the market is still tight in comparison to the other submarkets,\" said Bert Checa, a principal at Lee and Associates South Florida. \" It's still the market with the lowest vacancy. However, the increases in rental rate have caused there to be an increase in vacancy in the last three quarters.\"<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"200\" data-end=\"327\">Similar to all submarkets, Mr. Checa said, Coconut Grove's demand has slowed.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"200\" data-end=\"327\">\"It was a very slow summer,\" he said. \"The activity is starting to pick back up now, after August, after school came back, but it has been, so far, a very slow 2025.\"<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"200\" data-end=\"327\">The Grove's appeal is its live, work and play lifestyle, said Carlos Villanueva, a managing broker with The Keyes Co. One's ability to work there while also being in an area with a high level of walkability \"contributes to what people are looking for, which is more of a balanced lifestyle than just being an essential business district of a downtown or in a suburban market. It kind of gives you the balance between the two.\"<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1315\" data-end=\"1483\">Another appeal is the area\u2019s boutique Class A buildings, he said, that have character to them in terms of the mix of architectural style, luxury and social atmosphere.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1485\" data-end=\"1740\">Mr. Villanueva told Miami Today in January that he\u2019d seen long-time tenants moving out of Coconut Grove as they were being priced out. Now, Mr. Villanueva said, not only are they being priced out, but they\u2019re being inventoried out as buildings are repurposed.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1742\" data-end=\"1883\">\u201cWhat\u2019s happened,\u201d he said, \u201cis there's been several of the older buildings that have actually now been leveled, and they're building new buildings in their place. There's a Four Seasons being built in the hard corner of South Bayshore Drive. There used to be an office building occupied by the very prominent attorney, Kendall Coffey. That building has been leveled since, and so that reduced inventory.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1885\" data-end=\"2140\">Mr. Checa noted a similar common theme as he shared that many of the tenants are being handed renewal rates causing them to leave the Grove.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2293\" data-end=\"2638\">\u201cSome of the legacy tenants that have been in the Grove for a long time are getting priced out,\u201d said Mr. Checa, \u201cand they\u2019re going to the Gables, which is a more affordable sister market with comparable amenities and walkability, and some of the tenants in the Brickell market that are getting priced out of the Brickell market are coming to the Grove.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2640\" data-end=\"2839\">Additionally, Mr. Checa shared, Coconut Grove\u2019s vacancy increased to 5.5% from 4%. The reason for this increase is a combination of a slow market and record-high rental rates in the Grove, he said.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2841\" data-end=\"3013\">As of Aug. 22, Coconut Grove\u2019s Class A and Class B rental rates, said Mr. Checa, were averaging $65 a foot. Class A ranging from $70-$85 and Class B ranging from $60-$70.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3015\" data-end=\"3655\">\"Legacy tenants,\" said Mr. Checa, \"continue to play like a carousel type of wheel, where the legacy tenants in Brickell are getting priced out and coming to the Grove, and the legacy tenants in the Grove are getting priced out and they're coming to the Gables, and the legacy tenants in the Gables are getting priced out, are going to Waterford. There's an interesting movement of tenants that are looking for affordability, that are kind of interchanging between these markets. And I don't know how much longer the landlords are going to try to hold onto these rates before they notice the increase in vacancy continuing.\"<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2303\" data-end=\"3164\">...<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-10346-1\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-10346-1-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-10346-1-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_siteorigin-panels-builder panel-first-child\" data-index=\"2\" ><div id=\"pl-w68b86d1cf1e41\"  class=\"panel-layout\" ><div id=\"pg-w68b86d1cf1e41-0\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-has-style\" ><div class=\"panel-row-style panel-row-style-for-w68b86d1cf1e41-0\" ><div id=\"pgc-w68b86d1cf1e41-0-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-w68b86d1cf1e41-0-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-image panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"0\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-image so-widget-sow-image-default-c67d20f9f743\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"sow-image-container\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.lee-associates.com\/southflorida\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2025\/09\/08-28-2025-Miami-Today_Page_1.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttarget=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" \t\t>\n\t\t\t<img \n\tsrc=\"https:\/\/www.lee-associates.com\/southflorida\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2025\/09\/08-28-2025-Miami-Today_Page_1-512x423.jpg\" width=\"512\" height=\"423\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lee-associates.com\/southflorida\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2025\/09\/08-28-2025-Miami-Today_Page_1-512x423.jpg 512w, https:\/\/www.lee-associates.com\/southflorida\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2025\/09\/08-28-2025-Miami-Today_Page_1-1280x1057.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.lee-associates.com\/southflorida\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2025\/09\/08-28-2025-Miami-Today_Page_1-768x634.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lee-associates.com\/southflorida\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2025\/09\/08-28-2025-Miami-Today_Page_1-1536x1268.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.lee-associates.com\/southflorida\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2025\/09\/08-28-2025-Miami-Today_Page_1.jpg 1994w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" title=\"08-28-2025 Miami Today_Page_1\" alt=\"Miami Today Discusses Office Market with Lee &amp; Associates South Florida Principal, Bert Checa\" \t\tclass=\"so-widget-image\"\/>\n\t\t\t<\/a><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-10346-1-0-1\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-last-child\" data-index=\"3\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3><strong>About Lee &amp; Associates South Florida<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Lee &amp; Associates South Florida is a fully vertical commercial real estate brokerage firm focused on industrial, office, retail, multifamily, investment and land sectors.
