PACE Loan Group Arranges $4.4M C-PACE Loan for Northern California RV Resort

by Amy Works January 30, 2024

DILLON BEACH, CALIF. — PACE Loan Group has arranged a $4.4 million commercial property assessed clean energy (C-PACE) loan secured by a special assessment for Lawson’s Landing, a RV resort and campground in Dillon Beach, approximately 60 miles northwest of San Francisco. The loan will support the nearly 70-year-old campground’s new wastewater treatment, solar energy and efficiency improvements. The improvements will facilitate and enhance new restrooms and rental cottages at the 608-acre property. C-PACE is a tool that can finance energy efficiency and renewable energy improvements on commercial property. The family-owned and -operated campground features 311 RV and tent sites and a general store. The planned upgrades include installation of a wastewater management system, which will support 20 new cottages and additional restrooms with hot showers. The addition of the wastewater project will eliminate emission-intensive septic waste removal by truck and create operational cost savings of approximately $1.1 million per year. Slated for completion by December, the project received approval from the California Coastal Commission in April 2020. The campground has already completed a new 5,000-square-foot barn, which used part of the C-PACE financing to add a 76.7 kW Photovoltaic system to partially offset the property’s operating energy requirements.

Orange County’s Industrial Market Thrives, but Office Market Struggles

by Jeff Shaw January 30, 2024

— By Robert Ritschel and Andrew Herron, Senior Vice Presidents, The Saywitz Company — The industrial sector for Orange County commercial real estate continues to be one of the strongest in the country. Vacancy rates in Orange County for industrial space remain at approximately 2 percent. What this means for tenants out in the marketplace is a continued struggle to find viable space. When combining limited availability with the fact that some of the buildings are older or obsolete, or may have lower ceiling height or reduced power, this makes the challenge even more difficult. With that said, we have seen the sales prices for industrial space level off and we have also now, for the first time in the past several years, begun to see landlords offer free rent and move-in concessions, and come off of their asking prices. The days of five or 10 different tenants looking at one available space in the marketplace seem to be over, and those with good credit looking to sign long-term leases clearly stand out from the mom-and-pop operator that may be looking to sign a short-term lease. Landlords on the industrial side appear to be much more conscious of the changing …

Property Owners Recalibrate Expectations Following Financing Challenge, Shifting Vacancy Rates

by Sarah Daniels January 30, 2024

High costs, modulating occupancies and a lack of financing options reshaped the industrial, office, retail and multifamily sectors in the fourth quarter of 2023, signaling the determining factors for 2024, according to Lee & Associates’ 2023 Q4 North America Market Report. The industrial sector saw stabilizing tenant demand — the number of new buildings delivered increased in the fourth quarter, while new construction starts slowed. Meanwhile, the office sector’s struggles deepened as more than half of the office leases signed pre-2020 approach their expiration by 2026. With low-rate loans maturing into a high-rate environment, the factors troubling the office sector seem insurmountable in this decade. In the retail market, low vacancies did not lead to booming construction in that sector in the last quarter of 2023 — financing costs plus land and labor costs have hampered new development in spite of high demand. Finally, the health of multifamily markets is tied closely to geography. Sun Belt multifamily properties and their Midwest and Northeastern market counterparts are seeing reversals from the multifamily trends of 2021: formerly fast-growing Sun Belt markets are experiencing slowed rent growth or rent decline, while rent growth for slower-growing, major North and Midwestern metros has grown steadily.
