Opportunity, Demand Define Las Vegas Industrial Market

by Taylor Williams October 2, 2018

The Las Vegas industrial sector set records in 2017, with more new construction and higher net absorption than any other time in the market’s history. New construction was dominated by pre-leased space primarily driven by transportation and logistics companies, namely ecommerce and retail-related businesses. As a result, the overall vacancy rate decreased to the second lowest level in market history. As a percentage of overall market size, Las Vegas led the country in both new construction and net absorption. The significant momentum of 2017 did carry over to the first quarter of 2018, albeit at a relatively slower rate. New construction totaled 1.3 million square feet and net absorption lagged deliveries at a positive 1 million square feet, marking the 22nd consecutive quarter of positive net absorption. The overall direct vacancy rate in the first quarter of 2018 was 4 percent, an increase of 50 basis points over the previous quarter. This provided much-needed inventory for tenants looking to enter or expand into the Las Vegas market. While the North Las Vegas submarket dominated 2017, accounting for nearly 70 percent of total net absorption, it is the Southwest submarket that is surging in 2018 with 53 percent of net absorption …

Office Trends Toward Creative, Collaborative in Las Vegas

by Taylor Williams September 25, 2018

Some of the larger companies with long-term growth forecasts are focusing on expansion and amenity-rich office environments for recruiting purposes. However, more people in less space continues to be the trend for companies with slower growth opportunities that are focused on efficiencies and overhead costs. The average standard amount of office space per employee dropped from 225 square feet per person to between 150 square feet and 175 square feet per person in the past couple years. That being said, occupancy cost is not always the main driver in choosing an office location. There seems to be much more emphasis now on quality, functionality and conveniences. In many cases, this is based more on how we work rather than just cost savings. Open work spaces, perks like on-site dining and retail, and providing collaborative environments that foster employee interaction have proven to increase employee productivity significantly. Design is a critical component of this type of work space. Companies are looking for workplace designs and furniture systems that offer flexibility and adaptability as technology evolves. Technological infrastructure enhances the culture and efficiency of a business and protects the security of a company’s trade information. It also saves resources like …

Labor, Population Growth Drives Las Vegas Multifamily Market

by Taylor Williams September 18, 2018

Las Vegas continues to benefit from a strong labor market, which is driving demand and strong fundamentals in the multifamily sector. Employment in Southern Nevada increased by 3.4 percent over the past year, reaching one million workers, while the total population in Southern Nevada increased 2.2 percent, surpassing more than 2.2 million people. With a well-documented shortage in housing, developers added more than 3,200 new apartment units during the year and still saw vacancies decrease 30 basis points to 5.2 percent. Part of what is driving the tremendous growth in Las Vegas is the billions of dollars in commercial developments. This includes several major resort renovations (Palms, Monte Carlo, Caesars), several new resort developments (Paradise Park, The Drew, Resorts World), and the $1 billion expansion of the Las Vegas Convention Center. There is also the $1.9 billion football stadium that is helping usher the city into a new era of professional sports. On the capital side, multifamily properties continue to be highly sought after by both private and institutional buyers. Although transaction volume slowed in the first quarter of 2018 compared to the same period a year ago, total volume was more than $350 million in the first quarter, marking …
