WareCRE FAQ

WareCRE is the industrial real estate marketplace built for small-bay and co-warehousing space — everything under 10,000 square feet. We connect businesses looking for warehouse space directly with the operators and owners who have it. Listings show real pricing, market reports are free, and there’s no broker in the middle. Think of it as the marketplace the big platforms forgot to build — the one for businesses that don’t need 100,000 square feet.

Two audiences. Businesses looking for space — ecommerce operators, contractors, small manufacturers, distributors, food producers, and anyone who needs 200–10,000 SF of warehouse, flex, or industrial space. Operators and property owners — co-warehousing brands, multi-tenant building owners, small-bay flex operators, and CRE brokers with small-bay listings who want qualified tenant leads.

Yes. Searching listings, reading market reports, and contacting operators are all free for tenants. No account required to browse. No paywall on data. For operators, the base listing tier is free. Premium tiers with enhanced visibility, analytics, and portfolio tools are in development.

LoopNet, Crexi, and similar platforms are built for big deals — large distribution centers, institutional investors, national brokers. If you need 1,000 square feet of warehouse space, your listing gets buried under results for 200,000 SF distribution centers. WareCRE is built specifically for the under-10,000 SF segment. Every listing on the platform is relevant to you, and you can contact the operator directly without going through a broker.

No. That’s the point. WareCRE listings include pricing, specs, and direct contact information for the operator or owner. You can search, compare, and reach out on your own. If you already have a broker, they can use WareCRE too — the platform is open.

Browse listings by metro area, city, or zip code at warecre.com/properties. Filter by size, lease type, price, and features like dock-high, drive-in, or clear height. Every listing shows pricing upfront — no “contact broker for details.”

Co-warehousing units (shared warehouse buildings with individual units), small-bay industrial (standalone units in multi-tenant buildings), and flex space — typically ranging from 200 to 10,000 square feet. Listings include warehouses, flex/industrial suites, and light manufacturing space.

Yes — every listing includes direct contact information for the property owner or operator. No broker middleman, no gated information. Click “Contact” or “Schedule a Tour” on any listing to reach them.

WareCRE publishes free market reports for 18+ metros covering warehouse vacancy rates, rent trends, and small-bay performance data. If you’re about to sign a lease, these reports tell you what businesses in your market are paying, whether vacancy is tight or loosening, and whether you have room to negotiate. It’s the data brokers use to advise clients — and we publish it free. Read the reports.

NNN stands for triple-net — it’s a lease type where you pay a base rent plus your share of the property’s taxes, insurance, and maintenance. Those add-ons are often called CAM (common area maintenance) charges. Together, they can add 15–30% on top of the base rent you see on a listing. WareCRE listings include the lease type so you can compare apples to apples. Our Industrial Real Estate 101 guides break down every term you’ll encounter.

No. WareCRE is a marketplace — we connect you with the operator or owner, but we don’t participate in negotiations, contracts, or payments. You deal directly with the space provider.

Tenant inquiries from businesses searching for small-bay and co-warehousing space under 10,000 SF. These are tenants who found your listing while searching for space in your market — they’ve already self-qualified by searching your size range and location. Leads come directly to you, not through a broker.

Property address, available unit sizes, pricing (with lease type — NNN, gross, or all-inclusive), amenities, clear height, loading dock info, and high-quality photos. The more detail you include, the more qualified your leads will be — tenants can self-select before reaching out.

Yes. WareCRE is a supplemental lead channel, not a replacement for your broker relationship. Many operators list on WareCRE alongside LoopNet, Crexi, and their own website. No conflict.

Yes. You can list multiple properties across markets from a single account. Portfolio-level analytics and management tools are in development for premium tiers.

Yes. Our free market reports for 18+ metros include small-bay vs. big-box breakdowns — vacancy, rents, absorption, and construction pipeline. It’s the data that institutional reports either don’t break out or charge thousands to access. Use it for pricing decisions, investor presentations, or market evaluation. Read the reports.

No. You can browse all listings and read all market reports without an account. You’ll need one to save favorites, list properties, or contact operators directly through the platform.
