Construction trends for 2023 indicate that large works will continue to be concentrated in urban areas with industrial growth above the national average, said Gerardo Nevárez Solís, general director of Anáhuac Organización Constructora, based in Nuevo León.

Although there has been some recovery in the construction sector in 2022, not all regions of the country have lifted the brakes imposed by the pandemic. The industrial sector is experiencing a historic boom, vacancy rates have never reached such low levels and, consequently, rental prices, which have already broken all records, continue to rise, says Nevárez Solís.

For this reason, we could expect a 2023 with a shortage of industrial spaces in most markets, where all the existing demand cannot be met, indicates the analysis of Perspectives 2023 of the real estate market, prepared by Newmark Latin America.

For its part, the consultancy Solili indicates that Monterrey completed a little more than 56,000 square meters in October and November and a little more than 1,590,000 square meters are still under construction, with a difference of 2.5 times that of its closest competitor. It's Mexico City.

Another trend that will continue next year is the incorporation of sustainable elements and services in real estate developments, where the preservation of the environment prevails with clients determined to curb pollution, which increasingly increases the demand for more efficient buildings and integrated with the environment.

A recent example of this type of works is the concrete structure of the 50-story building (more than 101,747 m2 of construction) of Be Grand Reforma, in Mexico City, which has central water heating systems that save 50% on energy and gas consumption; With this, half of the CO2 emissions that this building would generate will be avoided.

The verticalization of real estate projects, whether for housing or offices, is a trend that has been increasing in recent years. This type of construction helps prevent urban areas from expanding into rural or agricultural areas, keeping the soil and natural resources of these areas surrounding the metropolis intact.
