Research & Forecast Report GREENVILLE SPARTANBURG ANDERSON SOUTH CAROLINA OFFICE Q2 2018 Greenville is a tenant s market Crystal Baker Research Coordinator South Carolina Key Takeaways > > Large blocks of available space are prompting landlords to offer competitive leasing concessions. > > Vacancy rates are expected to temporarily rise over the next few quarters as new construction is added to the market. Market Indicators Relative to prior period VACANCY NET ABSORPTION Q2 2018 Q3 2018* Landlords compete Greenville is currently a tenant s market. Due to large blocks of available office space, landlords must compete in order to gain or retain office tenants. A successful way to sway a tenant s final location decision is by offering the best concessions that will incentivize a tenant to choose one space over another. The concessions should be catered to the tenant s specific needs, offering a unique deal; this will not only assist the tenant with their move and/or decision, it may also make the tenant feel appreciated. A few concessions being offered in Greenville now are: > > Free rent the amount of free rent varies, but it may be up to a full year of free rent for large, long-term tenants. > > Moving allowance a moving allowance is funded by the landlord and the tenant may use it to offset any moving fees incurred due to the move. The average Greenville moving allowance ranges from $3.00 per square foot to $5.00 per square foot; however, in some special cases, usually with larger tenants, a landlord will offer the tenant a lump sum amount to be used during the relocation process. > > FF&E allowance a FF&E allowance is for funding new furniture or equipment for the tenant upon their move. It is usually given in a lump sum upon the signing of a new lease. > > TI conversion This type of concession allows unused tenant improvement allowance money to be converted in order to offset rent or to fund tenant s furniture or equipment. CONSTRUCTION RENTAL RATE** Note: Construction is the change in Under Construction. *Projected **Rental rates for current quarter are for CBD. Rent forecast is for metro-wide rents.

There are other types of concessions that may be offered by landlords, but currently, in the Greenville-Spartanburg-Anderson region, these are the most frequently-used concessions that are proving to be successful. Due to these concessions, vacancy is expected to eventually decline as tenants fill large blocks of space currently being offered with valuable lease incentives. Market Conditions The Greenville-Spartanburg-Anderson market consists of 398 office buildings within five submarkets, which total 16,694,614 square feet. The vacancy rate during the second quarter of 2018 was 11.87%, slightly lower than last quarter s 11.89% vacancy rate. The Greenville-Spartanburg-Anderson office market absorbed 3,910 square feet this quarter, and no new office buildings completed construction within the region. The average full service weighted rental rate is on the rise and was $20.43 per square foot during the second quarter, 1.34% higher than the first quarter rental rate of $20.16 per square foot. Central Business District (CBD) Conditions The Greenville-Spartanburg-Anderson central business district has 66 office buildings totaling 4,167,000 square feet. The vacancy rate during the second quarter of 2018 was 13.08%, which is lower than the first quarter vacancy rate of 13.44%. The CBD absorbed 15,228 square feet of office space this quarter, 14,833 square feet of which was within Class B office buildings. The full service average weighted rental rate dipped slightly this quarter and was $24.65 per square foot, marginally lower than the first quarter 2018 rental rate of $24.84 per square foot. There are currently three central business district office buildings under construction, which, when complete, will add 161,217 square feet to the CBD office market. Suburban Conditions The Greenville-Spartanburg-Anderson suburban office market has 332 buildings consisting of 12,527,614 square feet. The suburban market posted a net negative absorption of 11,318 square feet and office vacancy rose to 11.47% during the second quarter of 2018, up from 11.38% last quarter. The full service average weighted rental rate in the suburbs was $18.89 per square foot this quarter, up from $18.54 per square foot during the first quarter of 2018; likewise, Class A suburban rent also rose slightly from $21.60 per square foot during the first quarter to $21.69 per square foot during the second quarter. There are currently four buildings under construction within the suburban markets, which will eventually add 70,340 square feet of office space to the suburban markets. Significant Transactions This quarter there were 39 sale transactions, according to CoStar, the majority of which were buildings under 10,000 square feet. CoStar reported a robust leasing quarter, with 111 leases signed; most of the leases were between 1,000 and 3,000 square feet. Sales > > The Jacobs Building located at 1041 East Butler Street in Greenville was purchased for $24,300,000. > > The Ogletree Building located at 300 North Main Street was purchased for $11,420,000. > > 3 Caledon Court, a 15,300-square-foot office building within Caledon Wood Professional Park, was purchased for $1,725,000 > > A 15,634-square-foot office building located at 155 Deacon Tiller Court in Duncan was purchased for $1,100,000.

Construction Pipeline Construction activity remains brisk in the Greenville market; there are currently 231,557 square feet under construction. Under Construction > > 125,000 square feet of office space is under construction at Camperdown, located at 305 S.

> > A 26,567-square-foot Class A office building is under construction at 615 Congaree Road and the delivery date has been pushed back to November of 2018. > > Plush Mill at 200 Easley Bridge Road is a 23,500 square feet under construction. > > Located at 485 North Main Street in Mauldin is a 18,333-squarefoot Class B office building expected to deliver in July of 2018. > > A 14,000-square-foot Class B office building is under construction at 340 Business Parkway. > > 110 North Markley Street has a projected completion date of December of 2018 and will be a 12,717-square-foot, Class B mixed-use office/residential building in Greenville. Office-Using Employment Office-using employment, those jobs related to the professional and business services, financial activities and information sectors, is growing within the combined Greenville-Spartanburg-Anderson Combined Statistical Area (CSA). According to the most recent April 2018 data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, there has been an increase of 2,600 office-using jobs over the last 12 months, which is a 2.2% annual increase. Non-farm employment in the Greenville-Spartanburg-Anderson market has increased by 12,000 jobs over the last year. Market Forecast As landlords compete for tenants in the Greenville-Spartanburg- Anderson market, tenants will receive lease concessions to offset the cost of moving fees, space upfits and rent. Due to new office construction expecting to deliver within the next few quarters, the vacancy rate will rise temporarily; however, landlords offering enticing lease concessions will help counterbalance the rise in vacancy as more office space is leased. Weighted rental rates are expected to continue trending upward due to the high quality of the available space within the market. 145 North Church Street Spartanburg, South Carolina 110 East Court Street Greenville, South Carolina 200 Verdae Boulevard Greenville, South Carolina Commercial Real Estate Growth Cycle: Where the market stands and where it is going NEW CONSTRUCTION RENTAL RATE EMPLOYMENT OCCUPANCY PHASE 1: RECOVERY COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE GROWTH CYCLE PHASE 2: EXPANSION PHASE 4: RECESSION PHASE 3: HYPERSUPPLY 3 South Carolina Research & Forecast Report Q2 2018 Greenville-Spartanburg-Anderson Office Colliers International

The new standard includes: all office buildings 10,000 square feet or larger, except medical office and government-owned buildings; all single tenant office buildings; buildings in an expanded geography; data for all quarters beginning in Q4 2008; and excluding office condominiums. In addition, the submarkets are separated by class levels A, B and C (A being the highest quality space and C being of lesser quality), and are also divided into 2 divisions: Central Business District (CBD) and Suburban. The Central Business District submarket consists of a highly-populated business area with infrastructure and an office building/high-rise environment, which is often accompanied by heavy daytime foot traffic. A Suburban submarket is an area or town existing as a mixed-use community within commuting distance of a larger city. Due to the adjustments of the building inventory, comparison of data included in previously published market reports should be avoided. 4 South Carolina Research & Forecast Report Q2 2018 Greenville-Spartanburg-Anderson Office Colliers International
