Colliers International, Boston Executes 14 Leases in Surging Dedham Market

10/18/16

The Southwest team of Colliers International, Boston has executed 14 leases on behalf of KS Partners, LLC in Dedham, Mass. totaling more than 42,000 square feet.

“Dedham has been and consistently continues to be a strong submarket,” said Colliers Senior Vice President David Goodhue. “The accessibility of the area is excellent and booming with new and improved amenities like Legacy Place and University Station.”

Leases were signed at 980-990 Washington Street, 3 Allied Drive and 333 Elm Street, all with direct access to 128, and equidistant to the Mass Pike and 93/95 split. The latter two are within walking distance to the Dedham Corporate Center MBTA Commuter Rail stop via the Franklin/Forge Park Line.

Seven total leases were executed at 980-990 Washington Street, bringing the total vacancy rate to 4.5 percent. New tenants include TCAA, Inc., The Law Office of Kenneth S Federman, Broker Solutions Inc., Adult Day Health Inc., and ELK Consulting. Six transactions were executed at 3 Allied Drive, lowering the total vacancy rate to 14 percent, and the final transaction was executed at 333 Elm Street, elevating its total occupancy rate to 100 percent.

“Tenants are relocating from Boston to the 128 belt so they can achieve cost savings without sacrificing access to great amenities and public transportation, making cross-market movement a no-brainer,” added Goodhue. “KS Partners provides its Dedham tenants with amenity rich, first-class environments. Having already renovated the common areas of 980-990 Washington Street, KS has since moved on to renovations at 3 Allied Drive and 333 Elm Street, which they are excited to unveil in early 2017.”
