BPO Dynamics in I-4 Corridor / Maitland Center
The I-4 corridor between downtown Orlando and Sanford is the densest suburban office market in Central Florida. BPOs here must separate Maitland Center proper (trophy Class A) from the value-add Class B/C inventory along the I-4 frontage and SR 436. Industrial along the corridor has compressed cap rates as logistics users push north. Multifamily value-add in Altamonte Springs and Casselberry is the dominant transaction format. A credible BPO reflects current insurance renewal rates, not trailing twelve.
