The total market vacancy rate at the close of the quarter is 12.0 percent, down from the prior quarters 12.8 percent, and down year-to-year 2.9 percent. The third quarter pause in activity may be summed up to long summer vacations in this continued strong economy. Workers and executives fled to the South of France, South of the Border and South Kohala. Speculation is that some folks headed north as well, providing golf days and vacations for brokers too.

Removal of the large block of vacancy (410,180 square feet) at Rosewood Commons lowers the Class A vacancy rate to a very healthy 4.5 percent. That said, Rosewood Commons provided the excitement in the third quarter in the disposition of 4440 Rosewood Drive to The Gap, who had previously leased the entire building with an option to purchase. The Gap paid approximately $40 million for the 181,495 square foot Class A office building ($225/square foot). ServiceMax, Inc. is headed to Rosewood Commons, inking a deal for 62,559 square feet in 4450 Rosewood Drive and relocating from Hacienda West (3875 Hopyard Road). Workday, Inc. remains in continued expansion mode at Pleasanton Corporate Commons, taking 82,177 square feet at 6200 and 6210 Stoneridge Mall Road. They will scale into that space as other tenant leases burn off. Class B Pleasanton weighted average asking rents closed the quarter at $2.47 full service gross, up a robust $0.19 from the prior quarter, and substantially closing the delta in rent differential from its Class A big sister. That delta is now just $0.29 per square foot on the average asking rent, down from a spread of $0.47 in the second quarter of. Absorption for the quarter was positive 41,663 square feet, and vacancy is at 8.4 percent, down from 9.9 percent in the prior quarter. Sedgewick Claims Management Services, Inc. leased 11,019 square feet at Hacienda Lakes (4234 Hacienda Drive).

Net absorption was negative 10,947 square feet in a total inventory of 1,488,260 square feet. Vagaro leased 5,053 square feet at Dublin Corporate Center (4120 Dublin Blvd.). East Bay Center I & II, currently home of SAP, is actively marketing 405,000 square feet in this two building Class A project.

SAP has signed a lease for 150,000 square feet at 2600 in Bishop Ranch, downsizing from East Bay Center, Dublin.

The weighted average asking rents are $2.01 (adjusted to full service gross), and the direct vacancy rate is 8.7 percent.

Office/Flex weighted average asking rents are $1.93 (adjusted to full service gross) flat quarter to quarter but up $0.28 from one year ago. Absorption for the quarter was positive 39,931 square feet due in large part to Pacific Gas and Electric s lease of 25,142 square feet at Creekside Business Park (5875 Arnold Road). Office/Flex vacancy in the sector is 14.9 percent, down 4.5 percentage points from the first quarter s 19.4 percent vacancy. San Ramon Class A weighted average asking rents closed the quarter at $2.75 full service gross, up $0.03 from the second quarter. The direct vacancy rate dropped to 17.5 percent due to SAP America, Inc. signing a lease for 150,000 square feet at 2600 in Bishop Ranch. Plaza San Ramon (SteelWave, LLC, Landlord) inked a few deals in the quarter by signing Campos EPC Services (7,715 square feet), Prudential Real Estate San Ramon (5,644 square feet) and Galenda Biopharma, Inc.

4 The office/flex sector, specifically Canyon Corporate Park, enjoyed a nice quarter as Adept Technology, Inc. signed a lease for 48,931 square feet, relocating and consolidating from their three separate suites in two properties in Pleasanton (Inglewood Place and Diablo North). Their scheduled occupancy of Canyon Corporate is late in the first quarter of Additionally, the marathon process of the California Tissue Donor Network lab requirement came to a close in their lease of 23,633 square feet, also at Canyon Corporate Park (4550 Norris Canyon Road). Weighted average asking rents closed the quarter at $1.79 (adjusted to full service gross), and vacancy is now down to 9.1 percent from 19.2 percent at the close of the second quarter. Livermore The Livermore office and R&D/Flex markets continue to show progress, as vacancy dropped to 14.8 percent from 16.0 percent the prior quarter. This was primarily due to a sizable (39,860 square foot) sublease from Valmark Industries at the corner of National Drive and Greenville Road to Sensor Concepts, a local firm expanding and taking advantage of heavily built-out flex space. The owner of the property, Balch Investment Group, had originally built a 73,332 square foot build-to-suit building for Valmark. Sensor Concepts signed a ten year sublease. There is still no speculative office or flex development in Livermore, and we do not expect any to occur unless Dublin and Pleasanton see their vacancy numbers get into the single digits. Sunset Office Park has been reduced to a handful of tenants at the northeast corner of Concannon Avenue and Holmes Avenue; Sunset Development (Bishop Ranch) has not announced any plans to release or sell the property. Sunset has entitled and sold the other 2.2 acre parcel for forty-two townhomes, formerly known as Livermore Financial Center. The Livermore office market needs a larger user, such as one of the resident national labs or the back office portion of a large Silicon Valley or San Francisco user, to populate the largely vacant Vineyard Office Center off Greenville Road and Southfront Road to put a real dent in its overall vacancy. But given the relatively small size of the Livermore office market compared to the rest of the Tri-Valley (11.0 percent), it would not take too many large deals to absorb what product it does have. Until that happens, most office users coming to the Tri-Valley region will opt to be closer to BART and I-580/I-680 in Dublin, Pleasanton or San Ramon.
