Analysis of Raleigh-Durham’s Office Real Estate Usage Trends

5/5/2025

Office Utilization Survey Results

Cushman & Wakefield sought to explore how Raleigh-Durham firms are adapting their office utilization strategies in response to recent shifts in workplace dynamics. While some businesses find that employees are just as productive working remotely—avoiding office distractions and long commutes— others emphasize the importance of in-person work for fostering innovation and maintaining a strong company culture. Many employers fall somewhere in between and take a hybrid approach, offering flexibility based on individual needs. Having a deeper understanding into these strategies will help provide valuable insights into current trends and practices in Raleigh-Durham’s office market. 

To achieve this understanding, Cushman & Wakefield developed and distributed a 22-question office utilization survey to clients and contacts throughout Raleigh-Durham. The survey gathered responses from more than 50 companies ranging in size from five to more than 500 employees across ten different industries.
