VENTURA COUNTY OFFICE THIRD QUARTER 217 QUICK STATS Direct Vacancy 13.9% Overall Vacancy 14.3% Lease Rate FSG $2.25 Gross Absorption Under Construction MARKET TRENDS Current Quarter 34,43 SF 18,112 SF Change from Last Quarter Year Overall Vacancy Rental Rates Gross Absorption Under Construction OFFICE SUMMARY & OUTLOOK The Ventura County office market witnessed vacancy rates edge lower from 14.4% to 14.3%, during the quarter. Average asking rents increased 4.7%, year over year, moving from $2.15 FSG to $2.25 FSG. Gross absorption finished with 34, square feet of activity, while net absorption posted a gain of 19, square feet for the quarter. Under construction activity was unchanged during the quarter, with 18, square feet currently underway, as the market has not delivered any new space this year. Unemployment rates have declined from 5.4% to 4.7%, year over year, and is equal to California (4.7%) and above the U.S. at 4.1%. The office market remains more balanced between landlord and tenant, with vacancy generally trending lower and rents rising at more normalized rates, with overall activity and demand pretty remaining steady. Job creation will remain the key to increased office demand. Non-farm employment grew by 3.%, year over year, adding 9, new jobs. The investment and sale market for office buildings in Ventura County continues to see solid activity levels as the total square footage sold in 216 recorded its second highest total since 27, with 1.2 million square feet and is on pace to match that total for 217. The capital markets remain active with plenty of liquidity, but we do expect interest rates to rise in the coming year, which is expected to slow price growth. We expect vacancy levels to trend slightly lower in the coming quarters, and expect rents to increase another 3% to 4% for most submarkets in the coming year.
