The West Midlands is one of the markets the major property research houses report on directly, which is why the figures above are genuinely regional rather than estimated. We arrange commercial mortgages and the full range of warehouse finance across the region, from the purchase and term loans that hold an income-producing industrial unit to the bridging, development and stabilisation finance behind a build or a value-add play.

The West Midlands recorded the strongest Q4 leasing of any UK region in 2025, helped by its manufacturing base at a time when manufacturing became the largest occupier type nationally. Prime rents sit at 11 pounds per square foot with yields holding at 5%. Rising availability favours occupiers in the near term, while the thin development pipeline supports rental growth for landlords over the cycle.

Figures are West Midlands-level benchmarks from Cushman & Wakefield. Full sources: Cushman & Wakefield (Marketbeat Logistics & Industrial, Q2 2025).
