Residential property isn't the only sector with exceptionally tight vacancy rates. Industrial property - warehouses and factory units at the edge of every city - has become one of the hottest parts of the market. But why has it boomed, and how should everyday investors approach this investment area?

In today's show, we cover: how online retail changed the shape of the property market, the reason industrial property is outperforming and how deep the problems in the office sector are.

Charlie Buxton, CEO of the Cadence Property Group, is Wealth Editor James Kirby's guest in this episode.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
