Jorel Guilloty's questions to Vesta Real Estate Corporation, S.A.B. de C.V. (VTMX) leadership • Q2 2025
Question
Jorel Guilloty of Goldman Sachs asked about expectations for leasing spreads going forward and the framework for initiating new development starts, as none were added this quarter.
Answer
CEO Lorenzo Dominique Berho Carranza stated that the strong renewal rent spreads of 20-30% are expected to continue as legacy leases are marked to market, unlocking significant value. Regarding development, he explained that Vesta will be disciplined, starting new projects only after leasing up existing inventory in a given market. An exception is a market like Guadalajara, where Vesta is fully leased and has a strong pipeline, justifying new starts on recently acquired land.
