Research & Forecast Report Long Island OFFICE MARKET Q4 2015 Office Market Remained Steady in Q4 Rose Liu Research & Financial Analyst Long Island Takeaways Class A & B Continuing the momentum, the Long Island office market remained steady in Q4. Long Island s unemployment rate declined 50 basis points (bps) from Q3 2015 to 4.1% in Q4 2015. GDP growth shrank to 2.0% in Q3 due to the stronger US dollars and reduced exports. In December, the Federal Reserve finally raised the long-waited short-term interest rate by 0.25% since the financial crisis in 2008. Strength in the economic fundamentals and stronger job market were the key reasons of the rate increase. However, it has little impact on US properties or returns as well as the long-term mortgage rate. Q4 vacancy rate dropped 10 basis points (bps) to 10.0%, 90 bps lower than a year ago. Likewise, Class A buildings continued to record a lower vacancy rate at 9.9%, down 40 bps from Q3. The average gross asking rents dropped to $26.50 per square foot (psf), a 0.6% decrease from Q3. The rental rates for Class A buildings declined slightly to $31.39 psf. Long Island net absorption, however, rolled back to 86,196 square feet (sf) in Q4 from its peak at 299,385 sf in Q3. Leasing activity totaled 289,240 square feet in Q4, which however was below the Long Island average of 667,032 sf in the past five years.

The Long Island vacancy rate continued to drop, standing at 10.0% in Q4, which marked the 5th straight quarterly decline and the lowest rate in the past 9 years. The vacancy rates decreased to 9.7% and 10.3% in Nassau and Suffolk Counties respectively. Submarkets have been seeing mixed vacancy rates in Q4. The Western Suffolk submarket had the most existing inventory of 19 million square feet, taking up nearly one third of the entire Long Island office market. In Q4, the Western Suffolk and Southern Nassau submarkets outperformed other submarkets, posting 10.8% and 6.8% vacancy rates respectively. The Long Island office market remained tight due to the scarcity of product and high demand, partly because of companies migrating from Queens and Brooklyn. For Class A buildings the vacancy rates in Nassau and Suffolk continued to drop 40 bps to 9.9% in Q4, the lowest rate in 2015, which posted 180 bps decline from the beginning of 2015. Suffolk County continued to improve benefitting from its high demand, with the vacancy rate dropping to 10.6%, a big decrease of nearly 1% from Q3. Source: NYS Department of Labor Rental Rate The Long Island average gross rental rate experienced ups and downs in the last four consecutive quarters, which declined slightly to $26.50 psf in Q4. The average asking rent in Nassau County rolled back to $29.26 psf in Q4, but a $0.36 increase from Q1. Suffolk County saw an improvement in the rental rate, up from $23.49 psf in Q3 to $23.62 psf in Q4, which increased for the first time since the beginning of 2015. The rental rates varied in each submarket because of the various building types and locations. The Western Nassau submarket continued to be the top performer, recording the highest rental rate of $31.75 psf in Q4, despite a decrease of 1.7% from Q3. The rental rate of the Central Suffolk submarket remained at the bottom amongst the submarkets, down 0.25% from Q3 to $19.79 psf in Q4. The Central Nassau and Western Suffolk made gains in the rental rates, averaging $27.85 psf and $25.05 psf respectively. The overall Long Island rental rate for Class A buildings slid to $31.39 psf, a quarterly decline of 1.13%, but an annual increase of 1.82% from a year ago.

Absorption Long Island net absorption dipped to 86,196 square feet in Q4 from 299,385 sf in Q3, down 58.6% from a year ago. The Q4 net absorption in Nassau County shrank significantly to 3,387 sf in Q4 from its peak in Q3. A few phenomenal buildings had negative net absorption including 3 Dakota Drive in Lake Success posting negative 21,353 sf, 333 Earle Ovington Boulevard (The Omni) in Uniondale recording negative 46,373 sf and 1025 Old Country Road reading negative 56,991 sf. Yet, buildings such as 1981 Marcus Avenue in Lake Success and 100 Quentin Roosevelt Boulevard in Garden City had total net absorption in excess of 41,000 sf. In contrast, Suffolk County stood out with a major improvement in net absorption reading 82,809 sf in Q4. The net absorption for Class A buildings totaled 116,025 sf, a slight decline from Q3 but a surge from Q1. The total YTD Long Island net absorption was 592,004 sf. The Western Nassau submarket continued to be the key player, with the highest YTD net absorption of 182,553 sf. Sale & Lease Activity Leasing activity somewhat slowed in Q4 partly due to the limited supply and the holiday season. The leasing activity quarterly during the past five years averaged 667,032 sf, while leasing activity in Q4 2015 was under the average level. A few major deals took place in Q4. Co-working places remained popular that Regus a global workplace provider leased 16,000 sf at 100 Duffy Avenue in Hicksville. Waterstone Development closed the $113.7 million deal for a 940,000 square foot office condominium unit and will lease to North Shore-LIJ Health System at 1111 Marcus Avenue in Lake Success. A 170,000 square foot office building at 1377 Motor Parkway in Islandia was inked by Damianos Realty Group for $11.5 million.

It also continued the trend that demand outpaced supplies with a matter of fact of limited product and stronger demand for office spaces in Long Island. With the growing new business and technological firms, people desire to move to more efficient space layouts, such as Regus. 3 Long Island Research & Forecast Report Q4 2015 Long Island Colliers International Even though the Federal Reserve raised its interest rate target range by 25 bps, it would have little impact on the property value and returns in the short term. In the long run, it might affect the long-term borrowing rate, however, this small rate increase would be offset by the higher rate of return. The Long Island office market has been benefitting from the stronger national economic fundamentals and continues to make positive strides outperforming expectations in 2016.
