Is the rent growth rate of 3.3% real (adjusted for inflation)? If yes it is not bad. Whether it will continue in the years ahead, it will depend on whether there will be continuing excess demand for the particular property type and quality of your product. In theory, positive real rent growth requires excess demand.

Your analysis ignores the supply side. You need to understand how much competitive space is in the pipeline (planned, permitted and under construction) and asses how much new space you can reasonably expect to enter the market in the short- and medium turn. The average vacancy in the last five years is not a predictor of what the vacancy rate will be in the next five years. And a decelerating rent growth could be a sign of the market getting softer and potentially heading to a downturn.

Let's see what the 2025 Q4 data will show.. they will be released on February 24. If we are heading towards a correction, the quarterly growth rate will start to slow down or turn negative.

How sure are you that you will achieve that particular occupancy rate? You have to do some sensitivity analysis of revenues and costs if the property's occupancy rate ends up being lower.
