Opportunities Abound on the Sunny Side of the Bay
Oakland has undergone a transformation in the past five years. Once a secondary market to San Francisco and Silicon Valley, Oakland has grown into a destination in and of itself on the sunny side of the Bay. From trophy office space in a dynamic downtown to state-of-the-art lab in one of the nation’s hottest life science markets, the region offers real estate solutions as diverse as the tenant’s that call it home.
What’s behind the momentum? As the entire Bay Area struggles to address housing shortages, Oakland is facing the issue head on. Since 2020, over 4,500 apartment units have been delivered in the city of Oakland, creating an opportunity for people to live where they work. With a growing housing stock, and situated at the geographic center of the bay, Oakland is a transportation hub that appeals to a growing educated workforce and has drawn the attention of major tenants and investors alike.
