Despite challenges the commercial real estate industry has faced in the last few months, Stream Realty Partners is maintaining a positive outlook on industrial fundamentals within the Houston market.

“We are very encouraged by the deal velocity within our portfolio but are maintaining vigilance while guiding our trusted customers through lease transactions,” said Stream Houston Managing Director Tyler Maner. “The past nine months have been very dynamic as many macro-economic headwinds become a reality.
