All information in this study was taken from reliable sources and is adjudged to be correct but is not guaranteed. Scope The focus of this survey is mid-to large scale Class ‘A’ and ‘B’ office buildings in the downtown core of Hamilton.

Assumptions Vacancies shown are typically an aggregate of multiple suites unless otherwise specified. Space available directly from landlords is shown as a separate item within the survey (“Direct”). Space that is available for sublease and space that is currently being subleased is shown as a separate item (“Sublease”). Rates quoted are building asking rates and not sub-lease rates. Space that will be vacated based on a firm tenant commitment elsewhere is included in the total building vacancy, and space that will be occupied based on a firm commitment will be omitted from the total building vacancy.
