Inland Empire Industrial Remains Strong, but Sees Signs of Equilibrium

by Jeff Shaw February 20, 2023

— By Jerry Holdner, Southern California Region Lead, Innovation & Insight, AVANT, Avison Young — The industrial market in the Inland Empire has been performing beyond what most of the industry projected over recent quarters. The region boasts a low unemployment rate of 4.2 percent, as of November 2022, which is below the anticipated 5.4 percent estimated a year ago. It is important to highlight, however, that job creation has been uneven. Leisure and hospitality jobs are still underwater, for example. The bright spot is that high-value-added jobs in a broad range of sectors like technology, software development, aerospace, scientific research, medical products and pharmaceutical development continue to grow, which bode well for the industrial sector. Here are some key market indicators, according to Avison Young’s fourth-quarter Inland Empire Industrial Insights report: • There was 38.9 million square feet of new industrial construction underway at the end of 2022. This is down 37.1 percent as compared to the end of 2021 when 28.4 million square feet was under construction. • There was 13.9 million square feet of positive absorption in 2022, down 53.5 percent when compared to 2021’s record-high total of 29.9 million square feet of positive absorption. This represents 2.5 percent …

Alameda Housing Authority Receives $20.6M for North Housing Senior Apartments Development in California

by Amy Works February 16, 2023

ALAMEDA, CALIF. — The Alameda Housing Authority (AHA) has received $20.6 million from the State of California Department of Housing and Community Development. The funds will support development of North Housing Senior Apartments, an affordable housing community in the island city, located just south of Oakland in San Francisco Bay. North Housing is the first phase of a long-planned community development project. Plans call for 40 studio apartments, 23 one-bedroom units and a two-bedroom residence for the onsite manager. The land, which AHA originally owned in the 1940s, was granted back to AHA in 2019 via the Surplus Land Act by the U.S. Navy. The land will now serve as the home for a property that houses military veterans — 25 percent of the residents at North Housing will be veterans in need of supportive housing. Island City Development (ICD), an affiliate of AHA, will be the developer of this project. HKIT Architects designed the property, which FPI Management will operate. Groundbreaking is scheduled for late 2023 or early 2024.

Rising Costs Create a Challenge for Inland Empire Office Landlords

by Jeff Shaw February 13, 2023

— By Kyle Yocum, first vice president, and Phillip Woodford, senior vice president, CBRE — The Inland Empire office market is experiencing a rise in cost, much like all sectors and markets throughout the U.S. As tenant improvement costs continue to increase, it’s becoming more and more challenging to find win-win situations with landlords and tenants. Landlords are having to increase their TI allocations, while tenants are having to show more flexibility as it relates to working with existing space. That, or they must cover a portion of the TI costs themselves or commit to longer-term leases to help the deal pencil for the landlord. Due to TI costs, both parties need to meet halfway and make concessions. I think one of the reasons our market has done well is that we are a smaller market. Most parties involved seem to understand the give and take needed to make deals pencil for both sides. Concessions are entirely contingent on TI costs, with landlords offering significant amounts of free rent and slight discounts on the rental rate if the TI costs are low. If a tenant is seeking major changes to the space, landlords are staying close to or at their …
