FIRST QUARTER REPORT: BULLISH TONE STARTING TO REAPPEAR IN SOUTHERN NEW JERSEY COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE MARKET

south-jersey-industrial-spaceWCRE Research Finds Positive Trends And Signals Of Cautious But Steady Growth

The local commercial real estate market continued its steady climb in the first quarter of 2013, free from dramatic headlines about natural disasters and government crises that marked the end of 2012, Wolf Commercial Real Estate said in its latest quarterly analysis of Southern New Jersey commercial real estate. Movement in the federal jobs and housing markets fueled consumer and investor activity locally, helping the market sustain several positive trends.

“The Dow Jones reached an all-time high, the federal and New Jersey unemployment rates fell slightly, home values and retail sales increased, and interest rates remained near historic lows,” said Jason Wolf, founder and principal of WCRE. “We saw several positive trends indicating improving growth, but we are still in a weak labor market, and more robust job growth is needed to lower the overall vacancy figures in our region.” Overall vacancy in the office market for Class A and B product is still hovering in the range of 18-19 percent, but the market has stabilized, and average rental rates continue to improve.

WCRE’s research into Southern New Jersey commercial real estate includes snapshots of the office and retail markets, and details on the major deals being consummated or planned.

According to the WCRE office report, there were approximately 300,000 sf in new lease and renewals transactions in the Southern New Jersey commercial real estate market during the first quarter, with new lease transactions comprising almost 43 percent of the transactions. This is only a four percent increase from the first quarter of 2012, but Wolf said that better figures were on the horizon. “There are more than 200,000 sf of new deals and renewals awaiting signature in April alone, so we expect substantial gains in the next quarter,” he said.

Office market highlights from the Southern New Jersey commercial real estate report:

— Average rents for Class A & B product remained at or above the improved level they reached last year, continuing to show strong support in the range of $10-$14.00/sf NNN with an overall market average of $11.00/sf NNN for the deals completed during the quarter.

— Positive absorption for the first quarter was in the range of 130,000+/-sf of new deals and/or expansions. This is a gain of 8.5 percent compared to the first quarter of 2012, which WCRE attributes to pent up demand from last year, reflecting that much of the uncertainty of the fourth quarter is behind us.

— Healthcare, computer services, insurance, defense contracting, consulting, engineering, and financial companies all were very active in Southern New Jersey during the first quarter.

— Demand for high quality investment properties is high, while supply remains low, intensifying competition for these properties.

Retail market highlights from the Southern New Jersey commercial real estate report include:

— Area retailers reported that first quarter sales figures exceeded those from the holiday shopping season of the previous quarter, an excellent sign for the economy.

— Overall retail space vacancy is still hovering in the 17-18% range, but the market has stabilized, and community and lifestyle shopping centers have very little vacancy, while neighborhood and strip shopping centers have more vacancy and less growth in rental rates.

— Average rents for upscale lifestyle centers continue to show strong support in the range of $30-$40.00/sf NNN, and average rents for neighborhood and strip shopping centers remain in the range of $15-$23/sf NNN.

— As with office properties, demand for high quality retail investment properties is outpacing supply, driving prices up further and CAP rates down.

The full report, including details about several key deals, is available upon request.

WCRE Q4 2012 Report: Neither Hurricane, Nor Election, Nor Fiscal Cliff Can Stay The South Jersey Commercial Real Estate Market From Its Slow, Steady Climb

WCRE (Wolf Commercial Real Estate) reports that the South Jersey commercial real estate market exceeded several of its third quarter benchmarks, despite uncertainty caused by a natural disaster and other major news events.  The latest quarterly analysis from WCRE, a premier South Jersey Industrial Real Estate Broker, found that while the third quarter was marked by caution, the fourth quarter market proved its resiliency.

“Though Hurricane Sandy, the election, and the threat of the temporarily-resolved fiscal cliff exerted pressure on businesses, investors, and consumers, there were signs of accelerated growth and reasons for optimism amid the overall climate of cautiousness,” said Jason Wolf, founder and principal of WCRE.

According to WCRE, the fourth quarter showed a significant uptick in both new deal activity and expansion in the market for South Jersey industrial properties and other South Jersey commercial properties. Several deals of significant size were completed, and Southern New Jersey industrial space and other Southern New Jersey commercial properties in prime locations performed better than the overall market vacancy rate. There were approximately 389,000 sf of notable South Jersey commercial property deals executed in the market, a nearly 25% increase over the third quarter. This includes new lease and expansion transactions of approximately 235,000 sf. Notably, expansions and new deals for Southern New Jersey industrial properties and other Southern New Jersey commercial space outpaced lease renewals this quarter.

“The report from this Southern New Jersey industrial broker also noted that New Jersey’s unemployment rate improved to 9.6% – coming down from a 35-year-high notched during the previous quarter – and that there are many new South Jersey commercial real estate deals nearing completion. Other South Jersey commercial real estate market highlights from the report:

— Average rents for Class A & B product remained at the improved level they reached earlier this year, continuing to show strong support in the range of $11-$14.00/sf NNN with an overall market average of $11.00/sf NNN for the deals completed during the fourth quarter.

–New deals and expansion transactions of 235,000 sf for the fourth quarter was more than double the third quarter mark of 106,000 sf.

— Moorestown, Marlton and Mount Laurel (3M) continue to show strength, while a large share of the region’s vacancies remain in Voorhees, Pennsauken, and the west side of Cherry Hill. Burlington County continued to maintain a significantly lower vacancy rate than Camden County.

— Tenants continue to take advantage of low rental rates and are securing long-term lease commitments. The pattern of this flight to quality – upgrading to better locations and spaces – is expected to continue, especially among larger firms.

— All of the the new major owners and REITS are showing a significant increase in deal activity and occupancy – both renewals and new deals – and are all cautiously optimistic.

Retail market highlights from the report include:

— Moorestown has issued its first ever liquor licenses, and PREIT acquired them in order to bring four new high-end restaurants to the Moorestown Mall.

— Overall South Jersey retail space vacancy is still hovering in the 17-18% range, but the market has stabilized, and prime retail locations have very little vacancy.

— Average rents for Class A retail product continue to show strong support in the range of $30-$40.00/sf NNN. Class B product shows support in the range of $15-$23/sf NNN.

— The Haddonfield Road corridor, Route 70, and Route 73 are the prime destinations for retailers.

The report also anticipated challenges in 2013, with at least 250,000 sf of additional South Jersey industrial space and South Jersey commercial space vacancies expected to return to the market as Lockheed-Martin, Catalent Pharma, and others follow through on plans to downsize. But Wolf said that even this development could be positive, because large blocks of quality South Jersey office space and other South Jersey commercial space in excess of 30,000 sf have become scarce.

The full report is available upon request.
