Commercial Real Estate Market UPDATE
Commercial real estate fundamentals
appeared to be favorable, with
declining vacancies, space absorption,
rent increases, and—to a lesser
degree—leasing
improvements,
according to the 2Q14 CCIM Market

range of industry data sources.

On a national basis, net absorption continued on a positive trend,
while moderate new construction Vacancy Rate

square feet during the quarter.
Job growth provided the major
differentiator in office performance
across markets. In technology and
energy centers, employment gains
led to strong office demand and high
rent growth. The top 10 markets by

Asking rents for office space advanced
0.7 percent in the 1Q14, according
to Reis. Effective rents rose by 0.8
percent during the same period,
averaging about $24 per square foot.
Asking rents are expected to grow by
2.5 percent this year.
INDUSTRIAL
In the wake of strong performance
figures in the latter part of 2013,
industrial fundamentals softened
during 1Q14 as the economy dipped.
Availability rates declined 10 basis
points from the previous quarter.
Net absorption for warehouses was
15.4 million square feet, while
absorption of flex space totaled 2.4
million square feet. Flex space
demand jumped more than 50
percent from 4Q13, as new supply
slowed in tandem with rising
demand. Completions of flex space
were a scant 150,000 square feet in
1Q14, according to Reis. New warehouse space came online to the tune
of 9.4 million square feet.
Regionally, distribution centers registered the strongest numbers. Markets
such as Houston and San Bernardino/
Riverside, Calif., posted rent growth
in excess of 3.0 percent during 1Q14.
Atlanta and Kansas City, Mo., also
showed upbeat rent growth with
identical increases of 2.9 percent.
Memphis, Tenn., and Chicago
recorded rent gains of 2.7 percent and
2.6 percent respectively. Asking rents
are estimated to grow 2.4 percent by
year-end as demand for space is
expected to remain strong.

Commercial Real Estate FORECAST
Due to a number of factors, the U.S. economy is expected to perform at a quicker pace during the remainder of
2014. However, the pace of growth remains muted, tempering expectations for commercial real estate. Absorption is
projected to continue growing, leading to declining vacancies across most property types. The forecast below projects
conditions for the commercial sector through 2015.

Quarterly Market Trends
U.S. Economic OVERVIEW
Employment and job growth appear
to be the most important drivers of
the need for commercial real estate.
To a significant degree, the country’s
gross domestic product and jobs vary
together. The overall performance
of the economy has been mediocre
in recent years following the Great
Recession—growth has been positive
but somewhat less than what would
normally be expected. However,
economic growth is expected to pick
up over the next several years, which
should have a favorable impact on
the demand for commercial space.

GDP growth was around -2.9 percent,
and unemployment was in the neighborhood of 6.7 percent, declining to
6.3 percent in May. The harsh winter
weather appears to have been a major
cause of the decline in GDP, but the
economy had already been performing
at a sluggish rate—essentially since
the end of the Great Recession.
Most economists expect the economy
to pick up in the forthcoming
months, and preliminary indications
suggest a growth rate in the neighborhood of 3 percent by the end of
the year. However, on a yearly basis
the overall GDP growth projection
for 2014 is 1.9 percent, along with
unemployment at 6.3 percent and
continued low inflation and interest
rates. In short, recent economic
performance could be termed as
mediocre with the economy now
expected to be on an uptrend.
However, a number of economic
uncertainties, such as energy problems from the Middle East, a
potential decline in the stock market
that shakes consumer confidence,
and a lack of enthusiasm and confidence about economic conditions,
may pose problems that cause
economic growth to be less than
would normally occur.
Real GDP growth for 2014 is
projected at 1.9 percent, below the
normal 3 percent growth rate.
However, exports will probably pick
up as foreign economies continue to
expand and business inventories
appear likely to increase. Therefore,
economic growth is projected to
resume for the rest of the year in the
neighborhood of 2.7 to 3 percent.
U.S. ECONOMY:
A DETAILED ANALYSIS
Economists analyze the economy in
terms of consumption, investment,
government expenditures, and net
exports when making projections
of economic activity. A focus on
the factors that could cause the four
categories to vary can show potential
upward or downward shifts in the
economy.

Quarterly Market Trends
U.S. Economic OVERVIEW
Consumers account for approximately 70 percent of GDP economic
activity. The Consumer Confidence
Index is an indicator measures the
degree of optimism on the state of
the economy that consumers are
expressing through their activities
of saving and spending. The index
is issued by The Conference Board,
based on a monthly survey of 5,000
households. Opinions on current
conditions make up 40 percent of the
index, with expectations of future
conditions comprising the remaining
60 percent. The index has recovered
from its depth of 25.3 in February of
2009 during the Great Recession but
still continues to be somewhat lower
than would be expected in a normally
expanding economy. One would
expect an increase in consumption to
occur with an increase in consumer
confidence, part of which appears
to be currently driven by emotional
reactions to news reports. Assuming
continued economic recovery, the
uncertainties are probably more
towards the upside.
Recent fluctuations in household
wealth coupled with continued
job market problems have probably contributed to the currently
muted level of consumer confidence.
Changes in consumer confidence
can occur relatively quickly, so the
current Consumer Confidence Index
level and direction suggests that
good economic news could impact

the index, thereby setting the stage
for additional economic expansion
in terms of personal consumption
expenditures. Nevertheless, income
and wealth issues are relevant
in examining the overall level of
personal consumption expenditures.
Another factor affecting consumer
confidence appears to have been
declining median family income and
a lack of growth in worker earnings.
Stated in constant dollars, families do
not appear to have benefitted from
the economic recovery. These factors
tend to limit consumer spending from
what it would otherwise have been in
addition to creating rancorous press
coverage which also appears to negatively impact confidence. On a longer
term basis, there are numerous reports
in the press concerning the concentration of wealth and income in
upper-bracket individuals as the
economy changes. In contrast, about
one-third of American households
are reported as living hand-tomouth, meaning that they spend all
their paychecks.

U.S. Economic OVERVIEW
EMPLOYMENT’S EFFECTS
Employment trends and job availability have been difficult for many
consumers. The unemployment rate
continues to fall, based on people
actively seeking work. However,
unemployment continues to be high
relative to normal expectations. Most
of the recent drop in unemployment
appears to have occurred as a result been out of work for six months

In order to meet the expanding job
needs of the U.S. economy due to
population growth, the economy
needs to add approximately 150,000
new jobs every month just to stay
even. Any jobs added above 150,000
can help to reduce the number of
unemployed and underemployed
potential workers. Employment
has accelerated modestly in recent
months, which should help to
continue the downward pressure on
the unemployment rate. However,

both job and GDP growth are positive. Considering all of the factors
mentioned, on balance we could even
see some upscale potential beyond
that which is projected. However, for
the longer run, in order for personal
consumption expenditures to achieve
significantly greater growth it may be
necessary for lower income earners to
leave part-time employment and to
participate to a greater degree in the
growth of the economy.
INVESTMENT
Both residential and business investments continue to recover from
the depths of the Great Recession.
Total investment is approximately
16 percent of the GDP and has
been rising. The change in private
inventories—which
makes
up
approximately 4 percent of total
investment—is, however, quite volatile and through a multiplier effect
can have some impact on GDP. For
the next few quarters any changes in
investment impacts on the economy
are likely to be positive.
Looking at quarterly changes in
investment, it is clear that inventory
investment is relatively small but is
also subject to fairly wide swings in
magnitude. During 1Q14, there was a
significant decline in business inventory investment, reportedly due to
weather. Companies were reported
as sharply cutting back on their
restocking of goods—partly due to
weather, partly due to demand. This
should reverse for the rest of the
year: The economy is on an upswing

and weather impacts are unlikely.
There do not appear to be any major
changes in investment likely over the
next year which would impact the
economic projections.
GOVERNMENT EXPENDITURES
Federal, state, and local government
expenditures account for approximately 19 percent of the GDP.
Measured on a constant dollar basis,
government expenditures have
declined slightly in recent years.
Looking to the future, one would
expect government expenditures to
stabilize and probably rise. Some of
the areas prominently mentioned
include medical, infrastructure,
education, and social services. However,
major changes in government
expenditures are unlikely this year
and will probably not affect current
economic projections in this paper.
NET EXPORTS
Net exports declined slightly during
the first quarter of 2014, accounting
for a portion of the negative 2.9 percent
decline: Exports declined and imports
increased. Foreign economies on
balance now seem to be on an expansionary track, suggesting a pickup in
exports in following quarters.
ADDITIONAL FACTORS
In addition to looking at the components of GDP, it is appropriate to
consider trends in monetary policy,
inflation, housing, and general
risks in making an economic forecast. Overall, the trends in these
areas seem to be favorable, further

substantiating that there may be
some upscale potential to the forecast and continued evidence that the
expansion will continue.
MONETARY POLICY
In the case of monetary policy, the
good news is that interest rates are
projected to remain relatively low
by historical standards. Credit standards have been unreasonably tight
in recent years, largely as part of the
fallout from the Great Recession. In
recent months there has been some
easing in terms of credit availability,
and hopefully this will continue.
The Federal Reserve is expected to
continue decreasing quantitative
easing, and an interest rate hike
seems likely at some point in late
2014 or 2015. However, none of the
possible changes that seem likely in
monetary policy are seen as having a
significantly negative impact on the
economic forecast.
INFLATION
Inflation has been relatively modest
in recent years. The Federal Reserve
has indicated that an inflation rate of
2 percent would provide the appropriate stimulation to the economy.
A major component of the inflation
rate is the cost of housing, which
factors very heavily into the CPI and
is based to a significant degree on

imputed homeowner costs based
on apartment rents. In the past
year, apartment rents have been
increasing, and the impact will be
an increase in the reported inflation
rate. In addition, declining unemployment should eventually put
upward pressure on prices. However,
the inflation outlook does not appear
to have a significant impact on the
current economic forecast.
MANUFACTURERS’ SHIPMENTS
Manufacturers’ shipments declined
in January—presumably due to
weather--but subsequently resumed
their upward trend. Shipments
are an indicator of the strength of
the economy and substantiate the
current economic forecast.
HOUSING
Housing is a major economic driver.
The sale of an existing home adds
approximately $30,000 to the GDP,
and the sale of a new single family
home adds over $250,000 to the GDP.
Home sales for new and existing
homes have been climbing out of the
valley created by the Great Recession.
However, several factors have been
holding sales back.
Although interest rates have been
and continue to be low by historic
standards, credit availability has been
excessively restrictive. In the case of
new construction, small builders,
who have typically accounted for
approximately one half of new
construction, have been unable to
obtain adequate access to credit or

were eliminated by the Great Recession. In any case, this has had a
major negative impact on housing
permits for single family and multifamily units, which have been in the
neighborhood of a million units
per year or less instead of the
expected 1.5 million units yearly. In
addition, the Millennials are the
next generation for home ownership, but so far that has not occurred.
Family formation for Millennials
has been slower than expected,
possibly due to a combination of
factors such as the slow economy,
changing social customs, debt levels,
and expectations as a result of the
Great Recession. Between 2007 and
2014, median incomes for the generation segment aged 25 to 34 (the
typical age for a first-time home
purchase) have decreased at a rate
of 9 percent.
For the short run, none of the
negative factors impacting housing
appear likely to get worse in the next
year; in fact, there appears to be a
modest increase in lending as well as
job growth, so any risk to the
economic forecast is upwards rather
than downwards.
RISKS: UNCERTAINTIES
AND PROBLEMS
In the short term, the major risks to
the economy are a dip in consumer
confidence or higher energy prices.
Consumer confidence has continued
its fragile recovery, but a major
pullback in the possibly overheated
stock market would again have
potentially major impacts on household balance sheets. This could work
its way through the economic system,
resulting in declining consumption
and falling GDP.
The international outlook is also
a risk, particularly in terms of a
potential energy problem and
accompanying higher gasoline prices.
Middle East turmoil could become a
threat to the economy, particularly if
curtailed shipments from Iraq caused
oil prices to increase. Decreased
consumer demand due to spending
on energy might limit economic
growth. Iraq accounts for approximately 1.7 percent of global crude
consumption. An interruption of
Iraqi oil would raise prices and create
heightened uncertainty in financial
markets, possibly depressing the

values of various assets. The short
term impact could be substantial,
probably wiping out GDP growth.
Longer term, energy markets could
adapt to the loss of product.
Longer term, the major risks appear
to be associated with household
formation and job creation. Household formation has been relatively
slow in recent years. The major
drivers of residential and commercial real estate demand in the long
run are household formation and
job creation. Both have been slower
than expected. Explanations for slow
household formation include the
state of the economy, changing social
mores, a slow job market, and rising
levels of consumer debt. Explanations for slow job creation include
the impacts of the Great Recession
as well as technological change and
major realignments in the economy.
Both household formation and job
creation appear likely to be picking
up in the foreseeable future.

ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
For the next year, the economy
appears to be in a slow growth
mode—an economy expanding
at slower than expected rates. The
economic outlook is favorable for
supporting at least the current level
of commercial sales and rentals; in
addition, based on cutbacks during
the Great Recession there appears to
be a level of pent-up demand, so on
balance the outlook for commercial
real estate is positive.
The positive factors associated with
the economic outlook include rising
home prices, easing credit terms,
reasonable energy prices, recovery
from global economic slowdowns,
recovering consumer balance sheets,
and the potential for additional
household formation. Uncertainties with the international situation
(energy, recessions, and political
instability) coupled with lingering
consumer confidence issues are the
negatives. On balance, the economic
forecast is positive and, to the degree
there is uncertainty and risk, the
outcomes are probably more towards
the upside than the downside. In
short, the economic environment is
moderately favorable for commercial
real estate.

The leading market index uses an array
of factors to assess the relative health of
an individual market. The factors
include job creation, unemployment
claims, bankruptcy filings, and permits
for construction. The first two factors
provide an indication of potential
business expansion/contraction as well
as of labor market health and a leading
indicator of multifamily rental growth.
Bankruptcy filings allude to the health
of the business environment, while
the permits data point to business
plans and have an indirect impact on
inventories.
The leading indicator is weighted
based on both the current measure
as well as its recent trend or lagged
measures. These weighted measures
are then added to create a score.
This score is then ranked relative to
a fixed scale where a measure of 85
or better indicates a robust market,
75 to 85 a strong market, 65 to 75 an
average market, and a score below 65
coincides with a weak market.
