Office
Aurora’s office inventory includes Class A, B and C product with rents below metro market averages in each class. As of 2010, Aurora’s vacancy rate is 15.8 percent, close to the metro-wide average of 20 percent.

Industrial
Industrial property comprises Aurora’s largest real estate segment. Interstate-70, the region’s major distribution corridor, runs through the northern portion of the city, and drives Aurora’s industrial real estate development. Eighty-percent of Aurora’s industrial inventory is located in the I-70 corridor.

Eleven of Aurora’s fifteen business parks have significant industrial elements and are on or near the I-70 corridor. Several national developers like ProLogis, Lowe Enterprises, Majestic Realty, Lauth Properties and the Pauls Corporation have put in parks on the corridor with more to come as development moves east.

Aurora’s industrial sector has traditionally been stable. Over the last five years, vacancies have ranged between 7.7 and 12.4 percent (8.7 for Q4 2009) while rents have remained relatively stable. Aurora’s professional developers have worked hard to match their construction activity to market conditions. 

Land
Land availability is one of the hallmarks of Aurora’s real estate mix and one of the city’s key economic drivers. With its location on the eastern perimeter of the metro area, Aurora features plenty of open land. Proximity to Denver International Airport and access provided by I-70 and E-470 have combined to make Aurora’s land highly attractive for development. As a result, in the last decade, entitlement and development activity has involved about 25,700 acres on Aurora’s I-70 and E-470 corridors.
