Raleigh-Durham’s Strong Job Growth Lifts Office Fundamentals, Investment Sales

by Alex Tostado February 25, 2019

The Raleigh-Durham region’s continued strong job growth is fueling sustained demand from tenants, keeping the office market firmly in favor of landlords despite a notable increase in construction activity in recent months. The region added 26,500 jobs between October 2017 and October 2018 for a growth rate of 3 percent. Unemployment fell from 3.8 percent to just 3.0 percent during this time, hitting its lowest level since 2000. Despite not making the final cut for massive headquarters expansions from Amazon and Apple, Raleigh-Durham experienced significant economic development wins in 2018. Major job announcements came from office-using tenants such as Advance Auto Parts (435 jobs), Pendo (590 jobs), Arch Capital Services (365 jobs), Ipreo (250 jobs) and LabCorp (422 jobs). As in many markets across the United States, co-working operators significantly increased their presence in the region in 2018. Spaces has signed leases at five Raleigh-Durham properties, and WeWork committed to two locations and has stated that it plans to triple its local footprint in the near term.

TD Bank: Construction Delays have Bolstered the Multifamily Market

by Jaime Lackey February 23, 2019

It may sound counterintuitive, but Gregg Gerken, head of U.S. commercial real estate at TD Bank, believes some of the challenges the multifamily development market has faced have actually benefited the market. He specifically references labor shortages and construction delays. There were concerns in some areas that too much product might come online too fast, hampering absorption and rent growth. But the recent speedbumps have allowed the pipeline to even out a bit, staggering the delivery of new units and preventing overbuilding. Demand still outpaces supply in many markets, which has led to average vacancy rates of around 5 percent and healthy rent growth. Both developers and renters can look forward to new product delivering at a steady pace in 2019. Watch the video to hear takeaways from MBA CREF and 2019 predictions from Gerken.
