Lisa Bridges Director of Market Research | Houston

Houston’s office market continues to take baby steps towards filling vacant space emptied during the energy downturn. In Q4 2018, the market posted positive absorption of 1.9 million SF, a substantial increase from the negative 0.4 million SF of absorption recorded one year ago. Leasing activity remained steady over the quarter at 3.5M SF pushing the year-end total to 14M SF. Houston’s overall vacancy rate fell slightly from 20.6% to 20.0% over the quarter, but it is still well above Houston’s 5-year average vacancy rate of 16.4%.

Construction activity decreased in Q4 2018 from 3.2M SF to 2.5M SF as several new buildings were delivered. HP’s and ABS’s new CityPlace buildings in The Woodlands submarket delivered during Q4 2018.

Houston’s job growth increased by 3.7% over the year, according to recent data released by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics. The Houston MSA created 114,400 jobs (not seasonally adjusted) between November 2017 and November 2018, growing faster than the U.S. during the same time period. Employment sectors with the most substantial growth include support activities for mining which grew by 11.7% over the year, construction increased by 10.8% and durable goods manufacturing was up by 9.0% over the year.

Vacancy & Availability

Houston’s citywide vacancy rate decreased 60 basis points from 20.6% to 20.0% over the quarter. The average suburban vacancy rate also decreased 60 basis points from 20.3% to 19.7%, and the average CBD vacancy rate fell 40 basis points from 21.7% to 21.3% between quarters.

The average Class A vacancy rate in the CBD dropped 70 basis points over the quarter from 19.7% to 19.0% and the average Class B vacancy rate in the CBD remained stable at 30.1%. The average suburban Class A vacancy rate decreased 100 basis points from 22.7% to 21.7% between quarters, while the average suburban Class B vacancy decreased 30 basis points from 18.7% to 18.4%.

Of the 1,734 existing office buildings in our survey, 79 buildings have 100,000 SF or more contiguous space available for lease or sublease. Of these, 26 buildings have 200,000 SF or more contiguous space available. Citywide, available sublease space decreased over the quarter from 8.9 million SF to 8.0 million SF. Available space differs from vacant space in that it includes space that is currently being marketed for lease but may be occupied with a future availability date. In contrast, vacant space is truly vacant and is immediately available.
