Market Snapshot

Total Vacancy Rate Decreases As Market Fundamentals Strengthen

Los Angeles County has recorded a decrease in the unemployment rate from 10.0% in May 2013 to 8.2% in May 2014. The improvement in the LA County economy was driven by the addition of 89,300 jobs or a 2.2% increase in job growth between May 2013 and May 2014. The industries that led this job growth are educational and health service (+36,400 jobs), health care and assistance (+32,900), and professional and business services (+23,500 jobs). The only industry to experience a reduction in jobs was manufacturing, with a loss of 14,500 jobs.

The Los Angeles office market recorded positive absorption as the mid-year 2014 total vacancy rate decreased 70 basis points since mid-year 2013 to 17.5%. Midway into 2014, the weighted average asking lease rate was $2.67 per square foot (psf) on a full service gross basis (FSG). The difference in market dynamics is illustrated by the range of asking rents in the seven markets within the Los Angeles office market ranging from $1.99 FSG (Hollywood/Mid-Wilshire) to $3.61 FSG (West Los Angeles).

The Los Angeles office market recorded 217,900 square feet (sf) of positive absorption in Q2 relative to 369,600 sf of positive absorption in Q1. The only markets to experience negative absorption in Q2 were Downtown Los Angeles (-86,000 sf), South Bay (-56,600 sf), and San Gabriel Valley (-46,100 sf). The strong demand for creative office space has been very apparent in the West Los Angeles market as the majority of positive absorption was derived from West LA.

New leasing activity in Q2 was 3,748,300 sf with the West LA market accounting for 30% of the leasing activity in the Los Angeles office market. The sales activity in Q2 was not concentrated in any particular market; however, the South Bay market garnered the most activity in terms of the dollar value of investment sales transactions. The average cap rate in the entire Los Angeles office market was 7.1% in Q2 relative to 6.0% in Q1.

Development has ramped up in the Los Angeles office market in certain submarkets as developers seek to participate in the strengthening of market fundamentals. There is a total of 2,758,600 sf under construction or renovation in the Los Angeles office market. The majority of the construction is catered to creative office tenants in Hollywood, El Segundo and the Olympic Corridor. An indication of the strong demand from creative office tenants is evidenced by the Riot Games lease for the entire Element LA campus along the Olympic Corridor.

The Los Angeles office market is experiencing a measured recovery as strong markets continue to strengthen and weaker markets continue to heal. A trend that is expected to continue in the second half of 2014 is that Class B buildings will surpass the other classes in terms of positive net absorption.
