In this episode of The Industrial Real Estate Show Chad and Steve Kapp discuss why power — not rent — is now the first question advanced manufacturers ask when touring industrial space. Steve Kapp, Executive Managing Director at Newmark in San Francisco, breaks down why the East Bay has become the epicenter of a manufacturing and robotics boom, and what it actually takes to get a building ready for it.

In this episode:

• Why East Bay industrial vacancy sits in a balanced 7-12%, with the tightest supply in 100,000+ sq ft buildings

• The minimum power spec advanced manufacturers now require — 4,000 amps, with room to triple it — and what it costs to get there

• Why data centers have become the industry's "new whipping boy" and are losing the PR battle community by community

• Why manufacturing output in the Bay Area is climbing even as manufacturing jobs decline every year since 2019

In this episode of The Industrial Real Estate Podcast, Chad sits down with Carson Baird to discuss how to adjust your pitch depending on who's across the table — from institutional tenant reps managing global account surveys to local owner-users hunting for 5,000 square feet for a cabinet shop.

This episode covers how to identify what a client actually needs before you start showing properties, how institutional and local requirements differ in scope and process, and why the size of the deal shouldn't determine how much value you bring. You'll also get a grounded look at the Southwest Florida industrial market — how vacancy shifted after COVID and Hurricane Ian, what's driving land pricing in Collier County, and how the resources at a firm like CBRE stack up against boutique shops.

In this episode Chad is joined by Luis Miranda of DiscoveryCRE from Mexico for a deep dive into one of the fastest-growing industrial real estate markets in the world — and why "made in North America" is a more accurate way to think about manufacturing than any single country label.

Discussion Topics:

• Why Mexico, the US, and Canada function as one integrated, complementary region rather than competitors.

• The industries driving growth in Mexico: auto parts, pharma, food manufacturing, data centers, and e-commerce logistics...

• Mexico's real estate fundamentals: 1.1+ billion square feet of Class A industrial inventory, cap rates of 7–9%, and the rise of institutional REITs (FIBRAs) since 2011.

• How site selection actually works — matching industry, supply chain, talent, and infrastructure before ever picking a city.

Whether you're evaluating Mexico for site selection, curious about nearshoring's real impact, or just want a masterclass in how North America's industrial supply chain actually works, this conversation is packed with insight from someone living and working in the market every day.
