The greatest number of vacancies is in soma. The neighborhood that emptied out during the pandemic. Soma was startup central. It has been a ghost town since march 2020. I suspect a lot of startup people moved out of the city. I imagine it is quite tough to get those places rented since there’s negligible demand. Everyone is probably hoping return to work will bring companies back. I suspect we’ll never get back to where we were. A vacancy tax would probably incentivize landlords to drop rents which could be a great thing.
