1 NAI MEMBER NAME Office Report First Quarter Q 15 Market Summaries

2 3Q15 ECONOMIC REPORT National Highlights Citing global uncertainly, chiefl y China s murky economy, Federal Reserve Chairwoman Janet Yellen postponed any change in its stimulus campaign. Yellen stressed that the Fed s fi rst increase in almost a decade was more important than the timing, and indicated interest rates will most likely be raised by year s end. Though the U.S. economy is in its 7th year of steady job growth, the median American household still reported a lower income in 2014, in infl ation-adjusted terms, than it did in According to the Census Bureau s annual income report released in September 2015, the 2014 real median income was 6.5% below its 2007 level and 7.2% below its 1999 level. However, falling oil prices have slowed temporary infl ation and middle-income Americans feel like they have more money to spend. Despite broad wage stagnation, consistent job stability has encouraged more Americans to buy homes. Portland s sizzling residential market is evident to this fact, with home sales closing at record pace. According to Redfi n Realty, more than half of homes close in Portland s core sell in less than 10 days. Regional home prices have gone up 19% in the last two years alone. Consistent home price gains can make homeowners feel wealthier and are more likely to spend, providing a boost to the economy. Local Highlights Mayor Charlie Hales announced plans to ask the City Council to declare a housing emergency with the hope of providing shelter for all homeless women by the end of the year. It s not clear if the emergency would have any impact on Portland s rental crisis and housing affordability. City offi cials estimate roughly 1,800 homeless people lack shelter on any given night in the Portland-metro area. The housing emergency is seen as tangential to Portland s skyrocketing apartment rental market. Not too long ago, Portland s low vacancy rate was a welcome sign of a rebounding and thriving economy. Now, the surge in rates is symptomatic of a much larger, national concern. The majority of new multifamily development, both in Portland and throughout the U.S., has been priced and marketed toward the same demographic, consequently pricing out a large chunk of middle class and working class residents. In August, Axiometrics reported Portland at a 15% year-over-year average rent increase, the steepest increase in the country.

3 3Q15 OFFICE REPORT Portland s Central City vacancy rate barely increased to 9.48% during Third Quarter Despite a higher vacancy rate, demand and leasing activity remained robust this quarter with speculative offi ce construction gaining traction for the fi rst time since the Great Recession. Proposals have increased and 8 projects totaling 662,402 sf are currently under construction. In the CBD, Moda Health Services Group expanded its presence with an additional 16,700 sf at Moda Tower. CDK Global downsized by 24,564 sf with their 90,000 sf lease renewal at CDK Plaza, and Examworks LLC leased 14,504 sf and will move-in by First Quarter In the Lloyd/Central Eastside, Hanna Andersson moved into its newly renovated 51,335 sf at 541 NE 20th Avenue. In the Northwest, the Pacifi c Northwest College of Art moved into 31,644 sf at 321 Glisan. The Suburban s offi ce vacancy rate dropped to 12.63% with signifi cant activity owed to the Sunset Corridor submarket. Nike was the biggest driver behind that submarket s low 8.68% vacancy rate, and the sportswear juggernaut committed to the largest lease of the quarter with more than 100,000 sf at AmberGlen Business Center. Vancouver offi ce vacancy dipped to 12.55%. The Hudson Building, a new creative offi ce building located at 101 E 6th Street, will deliver 45,000 sf of Class B offi ce space by December The highly anticipated $1.5 billion Waterfront project completed infrastructure construction in September. The sprawling 32-acre site is master-planned to include 1 million sf of offi ce space. Creative offi ce users have long favored the natural aesthetic of exposed wood. Now, thanks to the technology of cross laminated timber (CLT), Portland is leading the charge for more commercial use with the hopes to boost local timber and manufacturing jobs in the process. The Framework project, a proposed 12-story offi ce in the Pearl District, was announced with the expectation to break ground in October The CLT project was one of two winners in the U.S. Tall Wood Building Prize competition and earned a $1.5 million prize. Featured Deal Nike Lease Nike, Inc. has signed the largest offi ce deal to date in the Portland metro area, inking a 105,005 sf lease at the AmberGlen Business Center campus managed by Unico Properties.

5 3Q15 INDUSTRIAL/FLEX REPORT Portland s industrial market remained strong Third Quarter with vacancy slightly increasing to 8.86%. 7 buildings totaling 430,013 sf are currently under construction with considerable development in the Southwest I-5 submarket. The 2-building, 62,000 sf Franklin Business Park is expected to deliver by November Buildings A, B and C of Southwest Industrial Park, a combined 156,573 sf, will also deliver by November The quarter s activity was largely due to move-ins with a few, notable lease transactions. In the North/Northeast submarket, heating equipment supplier Geary Pacifi c moved into its 31,628 sf space and Fujicolor Processing Inc. expanded its space by 26,823 sf at Southshore Commerce Center, Building 2. Committing to 383,040 sf, KeHE Distributors signed the largest lease of the quarter at PDX Logistics Center. Trailblazers Food also signed a signifi cant lease, taking 134,400 sf at the I-84 Industrial Center. In the Southwest I-5 submarket, Wineshipping.com had the largest move of the quarter with its 145,136 sf space at the newly constructed Southwest Industrial Park, Building D. In Southwest Sunset, Engle Dental System moved into 30,060 sf at Building E and 7,555 sf at Building B of Evergreen Business Park. With little activity to report, Vancouver s vacancy rate barely increased up to 5.3%. The flex market s vacancy rate bumped up to 11.40%. In the Southwest 217 submarket, Forensic Analytical Labs moved into its 11,221 sf space at Tech Center Business Park, Building A. In Southwest Sunset, Portlandbased sportswear giant Columbia Sportswear moved into its 27,379 sf offi ces at AmberGlen Business Center, 1385 Building. Market Trends Oregon s industrial market may need to brace for a green rush with heightened warehouse demand for marijuana grow operations. In the wake of marijuana legalization on July 1 and dispensaries selling to recreational customers on October 1, Oregon is likely to experience similar economic and market fl uctuations to that of Colorado, which legalized marijuana in If Portland follows suit, the metro-area warehouse inventory may dwindle, especially for spaces smaller than 80,000 sf. In Colorado, growers and distributors now account for more than a third of the state s total leased warehouse space. Converting warehouse space into grow facilities typically requires expensive upgrades, and the building s specialization could pose a challenge to relet. Additionally, limited warehouse availability equates to higher costs for logistics and transportation providers. The extra cost is evident in higher rents. Rents for Colorado warehouses rose 10% in 2014 with similar projections for the Portland metro area. 12% 10% 8% 6% 4% 2% 0% 1,000, , , , , ,000 Industrial Flex Industrial Trends for 3Q15 Flex Trends for 3Q15 Vacancy Comparison (%) 0 Industrial Flex Absorption Comparison NET ABSORPTION ASKING RATES NET ABSORPTION ASKING RATES

7 3Q15 RETAIL REPORT Portland s retail vacancy held steady at to 6.08% Third Quarter with 170,836 sf absorbed. 4 buildings totaling 45,267 sf are currently under construction. In the Central City, Eddie Bauer moved into 4,738 sf at Pioneer Place. In the Southwest, Makato Japanese Buffet moved into their 9,600 sf restaurant at Tigard Marketplace.

In the Eastside submarket, an 8,203 sf Green Zebra Grocery is set to anchor the new Lloyd Center project, Hassalo on Eighth, and will open in early Vancouver s vacancy dwindled down to a low 8.34%. It s been in the works since 2006, but the long-awaited, 155,961 sf Walmart Supercenter at Evergreen Crossing fi nally opened its doors on September 23.

Oregon passed legislation allowing dispensaries to sell to recreational customers beginning on October 1. Portland also plans to accept license applications for all marijuana business on this date. City offi cials project 360 marijuana businesses with $1.1 million in revenue in city fees, which will undoubtedly boost the local economy. Nationally, Americans stepped up their spending on cars, restaurants, groceries and clothing in August, suggesting resilience in the U.S. economy versus the current global slowdown. Overall, retail sales have kept up with solid job gains during Third Quarter. The nation added another 2.9 million jobs over the past 12 months, which is evident by the spending surge on luxury goods and disposable income items like cars, clothing and restaurants. However, improved retail sales weren t shared by all and a lag of growth at furnishers and home improvement stores forewarn a potential cooling down of the housing market. NET ABSORPTION

9 3Q15 MULTIFAMILY REPORT Portland s multifamily market continues on a tear without any signs of slowing down. Though it barely increased, the Portland metro-area benchmarked another low vacancy rate at 2.45% for Third Quarter. A 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom apartment now fetches an average of $1,183 per month versus the average of $1,026 reported a year ago. Though the rate of construction has subsided, capital continues to fl ood the market as evidenced by the soar in multifamily property sales. Portland s accelerating rents have attracted the world s biggest institutional investors. With a combined 684 units, 3 properties in Vancouver the Bluff, Miramonte and Walden Pond sold for $93.6 million. In Beaverton, the 630-unit Sterling Pointe sold for a hefty $91.08 million. In downtown Portland, the Museum Place, a 140-unit apartment building, was sold for $59.5 million. The high volume of high transactions only underscores Portland s global market value and appeal. Market Trends Not too long ago, Portland s low vacancy rate was a welcome sign of a rebounding and thriving economy. Now, the surge in rates is symptomatic of a much larger, national concern. The majority of new multifamily development, both in Portland and throughout the U.S., has been priced and marketed toward the same demographic, consequently pricing out a large chunk of middle class and working class residents. According to an analysis by Apartment List, the price of renting a 2-bedroom apartment in Vancouver rose faster this summer than any other city in the country. In July, Vancouver showed a 9.8% year-over-year increase in rent and Portland posted a 8.5% increase. In August, the data grew grimmer with Axiometrics reporting Portland at a 15% year-over-year average rent increase, the steepest increase in the country. 3.5% 3.0% 2.5% 2.0% 1.5% 1.0% 0.5% 0.0% $1,800 $1,700 $1,600 $1,500 $1,400 $1,300 $1,200 $1,100 $1,000 $900 $800 $700 $600 Overall Newer Seasoned Vacancy Comparison (%) Rental Rate Comparison Overall Newer Seasoned 3Q,14 4Q,14 1Q,15 2Q,15 3Q,15 The number of U.S. households that spend at least half their income on rent, otherwise known as the severely cost-burdened, could increase by 25% to 14.8 million people over the next decade as reported by the Enterprise Community Partners, an affordable-housing nonprofi t group, and Harvard s Joint Center on Housing Studies. Renters simply don t have the same fi nancial options afforded homeowners. Today s home buyers can take out new mortgages and homeowners can refi nance existing loans at lower rates. In contrast, the number one reason cited for not affording a home is the inability to save for a down payment, which soaring rents only exacerbate. Trends for 3Q15 PERMITS RENTAL RATES
