San Gabriel VALLEY | INDUSTRIAL Q3 2016
Accelerating success.
>> Rents Rise & Vacancy Remains Flat Key Takeaways
Market Indicators | Relative to prior period
> Average asking rents increased $0.02 PSF NNN over the quarter to end at $0.66 PSF NNN. Rents have surpassed their previous cycle peak of $0.62 PSF NNN reached in late 2008.
Vacancy
> Vacancy remained steady at 1.3% despite the addition of 323,000 SF of new supply. Tight market conditions continue to limit expansion opportunities for firms in the region.
Rental Rate
> Sales and leasing activity totaled 2,269,000 SF, broken out into 21 sales (838,700 SF) and 33 leases (1,430,300 SF). > Net absorption totaled 234,200. We expect net absorption to be higher in future quarters as the recently completed space is absorbed. > There remains only 813,200 SF of space under construction as we reach the tail end of the recent construction boom that has taken place over the last two years in the San Gabriel Valley industrial market.

RENTS
> Forecast: This quarter saw the completion of 323,000 SF of vacant space and next quarter will see the addition of 429,800 SF. It is expected this will have little impact on the vacancy rate as the San Gabriel Valley remains one of the most sought after markets in all of the Los Angeles Basin.

> Sales and leasing activity totaled 2,269,000 SF this quarter. There is a growing lack of property for sale, limiting the amount of net absorption that can take place.
> Average asking rents increased $0.02 PSF NNN over the quarter to end at $0.66 PSF NNN. Asking rents have hit their highest point and will continue to increase as market conditions remain favorable. > Asking rents are highest ($0.75 PSF NNN) in the infill sub market of San Gabriel, which mostly includes smaller industrial buildings. Rents are lowest in the Industry sub market ($0.63 PSF) which accounts for over 70% of the industrial space in the San Gabriel Valley. > Forecast: Rents have continued to press upward, blowing past their previous peak and will continue to rise in future quarters. Tenants can expect to pay a premium for all types of industrial space and those who signed leases 5 years ago can expect to their rent to increase roughly 50% upon renewal. This is one reason why tenants in the San Gabriel Valley chose to own their property and be insulated from fluctuating market conditions.

Outlook > Tight market conditions, limited development and rising industrial rents are expected to persist in the San Gabriel Valley industrial marketplace. The surge in rents is prompting many users to consider buying their properties, however the available inventory is insufficient to meet demand. New projects that completed this quarter will likely be leased or sold in short order, leading to further decreases in the vacancy rate. Market conditions will continue to remain tight as the major industrial drivers of the San Gabriel Valley, import / export businesses, food manufacturing and life sciences, continue to expand.
