The Commercial Rents Services Price Index increased 0.4% in the third quarter following a 0.8% gain the previous quarter.
The increase in the third quarter was mainly attributable to higher average rents for retail as well as industrial and warehousing buildings. Meanwhile, average rents for office buildings decreased during the same period.
The index was up 2.1% in the third quarter compared with the same quarter in 2014.
