The medical office market is booming—particularly for landlords with quality spaces that serve tenants' needs. In most markets, however, there is a dearth of quality buildings, a trend that is putting upward pressure on rents. Smart owners will be able to capture the demand by filling tenant needs.

"Tenants want a building that reflects their image and a space that will create a positive patient experience.  Each submarket is unique as to what that looks like," Bryan McKenney, director of brokerage services at Cypress West Partners, tells GlobeSt.com.
