JLL Pittsburgh Chart of the Week: November 16, 2015Andrew Batson
Tenant activity has driven up rents in Pittsburgh over the last 24 months, and despite a softening of the energy industry, the industrial property sector remains incredibly tight.
Corporate consolidations over the next three years will place upward pressure on vacancy rates across the Pittsburgh metro office market. Rents have appreciated 3.3% year-over-year on average across all classes and submarkets as landlords maintained leverage amid tightening fundamentals. Office construction remains robust with nearly 1 million square feet under construction and 500,000 square feet scheduled to break ground next year.
JLL Ann Arbor Office Insight & Statistics - Spring 2018Harrison West
Office space in the Ann Arbor market remains in high demand in early 2018. Total vacancy has decreased 1.7 percent year-over-year to its current 8.3 percent. The average asking rent for the market is $24.09 per square foot, while downtown and suburban rents are $30.62 and $23.09 per square foot, respectively.
The U.S. labor market added a whopping 223,000 nonfarm payroll jobs in the month of May, blowing away economists' projections of 190,000. This is a substantial increase from the 159,000 jobs that were gained last month.
The national unemployment rate also slightly decreased to 3.8%, setting a newer 17-year low. This places the total number of unemployed Americans to 6.1 million, down 772,000 workers (or 0.5%) over the year. The labor force participation rate also edged down to 62.7%.

Industrial development anticipated to accelerate in 2016
After closing out 2015 with 19.1 million square feet of industrial deliveries, the Chicago industrial market is headed toward an even larger expansion in the coming year. The current development pipeline suggests that new industrial deliveries could approach 23.6 million square feet by year end.
We expect 15.7 million square feet of speculative completions in 2016 a significant leap from the 9.4 million square feet delivered last year that is outpacing the current built-to-suit pipeline by a near two to one ratio.
At present build-to-suit development is being largely driven by manufacturers and food and beverage users which have already committed to 2.7 and 1.9 million square feet respectively.

Industrial development is driving economic prosperity in the Winter Haven-Lakeland area, where there is a strong 0.99 correlation between growth in industrial inventory and wages. Over 2.5 million square feet of new industrial space is slated for development in the next two years, which should support continued wage growth. The area has seen significant economic expansion over the last 20 years, with total GDP growing 37.7%, population up 50.2%, and industrial sector jobs increasing 18%. Amazon's new $100 million air cargo facility alone will create 800-1000 jobs starting in July 2020.

Industrial demand in Cleveland has been increasing due to production gains by local manufacturing companies. A report projects gross regional product and productivity in Cleveland will surge 25% and 65% over the next ten years, respectively, putting downward pressure on industrial space and increasing demand for more warehouse and manufacturing space. Recent space gains have already lowered industrial availability in the area and further demand growth is expected as companies need more room for building inventories.

Rent growth has remained strong in the tri-county area around Miami aided by new construction since 2018, with rents growing 3.8% and now 25.3% higher than the 5-year average. Over 3.2 million square feet is currently under construction, with over 45% located in four notable CBD projects. While office employment has grown 2.7% since early 2018, office occupancy growth has plateaued, counter to expectations given employment growth. This is likely due to the rise of co-working spaces, more efficient space usage by companies, and relocations to new buildings.

Construction activity and tenant improvement allowances are growing as the US economic recovery continues. As more new construction comes online, landlords are offering more attractive tenant improvement packages to attract tenants, customizing spaces up to $50 per square foot in major city centers. Construction costs remain high but are growing more slowly, driven by increases in materials like gypsum board and lumber. Overall construction starts in Q2 2015 reached their highest point since before the recession.
Construction costs continue to grow nationwide, and many landlords are looking to redevelop existing stock in major markets.
Tenant improvements (TIs) are also gaining momentum, and office landlords are competing for by offering more attractive TI packages. These offerings allow tenants to customize interiors without paying for a full redesign out of pocket, and are a key piece of lease negotiations. The average TI allowance nationwide is $30.00 per square foot, and just over $50.00 per square foot in CBDs.
The industrial real estate market in the Greater Montreal Area saw improvements in the second quarter of 2015.

Now at its strongest point in the recovery, the economy grew by nearly 3.0 million jobs in 2014, pushing unemployment to its lowest level since the third quarter of 2008. As a result, markets across the country recorded expansionary activity as corporate confidence grew along with demand for office space. Annual net absorption totaled 54.7 million square feet driving vacancy to 15.6 percent—its lowest point since 2008—a trend expected to continue over the next 24 months.

Office employment in Detroit contracted in recent months, with professional and business services adding 2,300 jobs but financial services losing 3,900 jobs. Downtown Detroit saw a high-profile lease announcement from Fifth Third Bank for 62,000 square feet in One Woodward to become its new regional headquarters. In the fourth quarter, Bedrock Real Estate Services and Meridian Health purchased the 1.1 million square foot Compuware building for $142 million, planning to consolidate employees starting in 2015.
Downtown Detroit is in the midst of a renaissance, bolstered by a recent series of high-profile lease announcements, the latest of which was by Fifth Third Bank.
With the economy growing at its fastest pace in the current cycle, employers across industries are adding jobs, especially in urban and dense markets where talent is migrating. As a result, expansionary activity remained the dominant driver of leasing in the third quarter, accounting for 57.9 percent of lease transactions.
The document provides an overview of the office market in Toronto for the third quarter of 2014. It finds that vacancy rates continued to decline in the downtown core while rising in the suburbs. Demand was strongest in the financial and technology sectors, particularly for large spaces downtown. Investment activity remained constrained due to limited supply, though new development projects were attracting investors. Vacancy increased in the midtown area following a large space being sublet. The central north market saw a slowdown in leasing despite low vacancy.
Indian economic growth remained sluggish through the end of 2012, however we expect industrial activity to improve, thanks to recent government actions. These include the government-proposed National Investment and Manufacturing Zones and the newly approved 51% foreign direct investment in multi-brand retail trading.
Global Industrial Mid-Year 2013 ReportCoy Davidson
1) Demand for industrial warehouse space remains strong in North America despite slow job growth, with vacancy rates declining for the 8th quarter in a row.
2) In Asia, demand is supported by resilient consumer spending, with rental growth expected in most cities. Beijing and Hong Kong in particular see nearly full occupancy for quality warehouses.
3) Latin American markets like Mexico City and São Paulo see construction activity but absorption is matching new supply, while Buenos Aires suffers from an imbalance of high demand and little available space.
What's been driving the Fort Lauderdale office market?Marc Miller
The document discusses trends in the Fort Lauderdale office market from 2018 to present. It notes that while coworking space has seen limited growth, there has been strong interest from coworking operators. Additionally, there has been a "flight to quality" trend where tenants upgrade from lower-tier space to more institutional-grade assets. Specifically, nearly 288,000 square feet has been leased by tenants upgrading from untracked Class C space. Many of these upgrading tenants have been large companies moving to Class A properties. This upgrading of space by true occupiers has helped improve stability and increase landlord values in the Fort Lauderdale office market.
Grand Action, a non-profit organization of wealthy benefactors in Grand Rapids, led development of three major projects in the 1990s that transformed downtown - Van Andel Arena, DeVos Place Convention Center, and the Grand Rapids Downtown Market. These large-scale projects increased rents, occupancy, and attracted new investment across the region. With high demand, low vacancy, and low interest rates, new construction of industrial and Class A office space is beginning. Rental rates have risen as office building sales and leasing activity increase due to the expanding market and lack of quality office properties. Limited availability is forcing owners to get creative with multipurpose buildings to attract tenants and compete in the increasingly urban market, where two types
Employment levels and office sector expansions are at all-time highs in the St. Louis area. Net absorption of office space has also increased, with over 600,000 square feet absorbed so far in 2015 alone. While absorption is up, over half of leasing transactions for spaces over 10,000 square feet have been renewals due to a lack of large blocks of Class A office space. The tight market conditions are expected to lead to new multi-tenant office development in the near future.
Downtown Detroit office fundamentals are improving, with increasing rents, decreasing vacancy rates, and more refinancing activity for commercial properties. Over 300,000 square feet of new office space was delivered in 2015, marking an increase in construction beyond just rehabbing existing buildings. Urban office submarkets continue to outperform suburban areas, with rents in the city up 5.1% compared to a 3.8% increase in the suburbs. Vacancy rates have also decreased more substantially in the urban core over the past year. Recent large commercial mortgage loans on downtown Detroit buildings indicate growing creditworthiness and investment in the central business district.
W06.01 Summary Affordable Homes: Building mass housing in IndiaShuvashish Chatterjee
India has a deficit of 18 million homes in its cities. Majority of the demand is at a significantly lower price point compared to the mainstay industry. Over the next decade the country has to produce on an average 8500 low cost homes every day.
This adds up to an annual business potential of 30 Bn $.In our recent report Affordable Homes: Building Mass housing in India we evaluate the levers India has to pull it off.
The U.S. office sector posted the highest quarterly absorption of the recovery to date, 13.9 million square feet. Q2 also posted 61.9 million square feet of leasing activity, with levels up 6.2 percent from Q1. Vacancy dropped by 30 basis points to a recovery low of 16.3 percent. Asking rents declined by 0.7 percent to $30.00 per square foot, but that number is deceiving as blocks of Class A space have been taken off the market.
Overall, the leasing environment continues to favor landlords, putting tenants in tough negotiation positions.

Re-Thinking The Office Market: Office Sector Realities and Strategies (Christ...Virtual ULI
The document summarizes the current state and future outlook of the national office market in the United States. It notes that office vacancy rates have stabilized at 13.1% nationally, with net absorption nearly doubling in the third quarter led by strong growth in San Francisco. However, performance varies widely across markets. While demand is close to pre-recession levels based on GDP, hiring has not returned to the same degree. The future of the office market depends on factors like future corporate hiring levels and the amount of new office construction.
The Washington DC office market saw limited growth in the third quarter of 2012, with net absorption of only 12,000 square feet. Vacancy rates fell slightly to 10.3% despite uncertainty around elections and government spending keeping demand cautious. Average asking rents rose modestly by 1.2% over the quarter. Small to mid-size private sector tenants such as law firms and non-profits drove the limited demand while the public sector remained stalled awaiting policy decisions. No new supply was delivered in the quarter and vacancy is expected to remain flat with modest rental growth over the next 18 months due to a lack of significant demand drivers.
1) Downtown Detroit is experiencing a renaissance bolstered by large lease announcements like Fifth Third Bank signing a lease for 62,000 square feet to serve as its regional headquarters.
2) Office employment in Detroit grew in 2014, led by gains in the professional and business services sector, though growth tapered somewhat. Unemployment decreased to 6.3%.
3) Landlords in Detroit have begun pushing rents higher due to declining vacancy rates and steady demand gains in recent years. Class A asking rents were up 2.9% year-over-year in Q1 2015.

Manufacturing is driving Detroit’s industrial employment
Industrial employment sectors have experienced substantial employment
expansion over the last year, recording an annualized net gain of 32,200 jobs
across the metro. Employment gains were led by the manufacturing sector,
which added 14,200 jobs year-over-year, suggesting continued growth in
demand for warehouse space. Recent industrial employment numbers
demonstrate metro Detroit is still a vibrant manufacturing and distribution hub,
only it’s more technologically advanced and smarter than it once was. This
reflects the rapid growth of advanced manufacturing and e-commerce.
Modern space requirements spur new construction
Developers completed more than 1.1 million square feet of new construction in
the past two quarters and have about 1.0 million square feet currently under
construction. Warehouse construction has been developers focus of late,
representing about two thirds of construction activity. Of the product currently
under construction, 511,000 square feet is being built speculative while 340,000
square feet is set for owner-occupancy and the remaining 81,000 square feet is
build to suit. Looking forward, a focus on quality space and convenient location,
rather than price, will drive location decisions for Metro Detroit’s industrial
tenants.
Landlords gain leverage as fundamentals tighten
Detroit's industrial sector is continuing a solid run of activity that has pushed
availability rates in several submarkets to historic lows. Total availability in the
region sank to just 10.9 percent in the second quarter as users absorbed over
2.0 million square feet of space. As the market fundamentals have continued to
tighten, negotiating leverage has sifted into the landlord’s hands. This is
particularly true in the I-75 Corridor submarket where absorption gains have
totaled more than 1.8 million square feet. Based on demand trends and current
requirements, total availability is projected to decrease near 10.0 percent by the
end of the year.
