MARKET HIGHLIGHTS

Industrial inventory is unchanged from 2013, increasing only .65%. Net absorption of existing space drastically increased in 2014 over 2013 by 362%. Inventory of Industrial has become scarce.

Central Business District gains momentum with growing interest in residential development; businesses have a renewed interest in locating in CBD, and new Retail development led by Publix Grocery store is providing much needed community support.

Retail development is focused on the reuse of existing space, and few majors continue to add locations except: Walmart Neighborhood Market and Publix. New-to-market retailers are showing interest in the market such as the about-to-be-complete Field & Stream store.

Residential development is on the rise with home sales up 15% over the prior year. Apartment development continues to be strong with unit values on the rise in the midst of stagnant growth in employment and wages.

The Office sector is experiencing positive absorption, leading to lower vacancy. Rental rates in Class A Office space are firming up and starting to increase. The strongest occupancy is in midtown to CBD. Overall vacancy rate for all markets is 9.2%. It is a healthy Office market. Look for technology to impact this sector more in the future.

INTERESTING FACT: Above average public education is available per capita. Hilly terrain provides beautiful vistas. There are four distinct seasons. Automotive production is now listed as a base industry in the MSA, which is a shift from steel production of the past. CONTACT

The Flagstaff, Arizona market is growing from the 20,000 student enrollment at Northern Arizona University. It is expanding regional medical services, becoming a hub for research and development companies with commitment to the Dark Skies coalition and city sponsored incubation centers, and is capitalizing on its location at 7,000 SF to attract second home buyers and other investors from Phoenix.

Due to the number of students attending Northern Arizona University and the many people seeking heat relief from the Phoenix, Tucson and Las Vegas markets, rentals are at an all time high for demand.

Flagstaff does not have enough development-ready residential projects online. As the city reaches the 100,000 mark in population, the need for commercial goods and services is growing rapidly.

Flagstaff average prices have caught up considerably since the recession and are now at $286,000 as compared to $340,000 in 2006.

Flagstaff is growing in banking, private schools, university support services and goods-providing entities, a VA hospital and all regional medical, educational and service industries.

INTERESTING FACT: Flagstaff is located at the foot of the San Francisco Peaks which reach almost 13,000 feet into the sky. Flagstaff is 79 miles south of the Grand Canyon and is known for its beautiful scenery and clean air. CONTACT

Publix is expanding its footprint in the Keys, adding to its existing 4 stores by acquiring a site in Islamorada and expanding its store in Marathon. Dollar Tree has added two new stores, one in Key Largo and one in Marathon. Starbucks is also adding another store in Key West.

The economic recovery driven locally by increased tourism has resulted in absorption of most of the vacancy in Retail and Office space. The high cost of new construction along with the significant constraints on development insulate the market from any overdevelopment of commercial space.

Significant new construction in the Hospitality sector Keys-wide includes the Hyatt Place and Marriott Courtyard in Marathon, Marker Resort in Key West and the Marriott Autograph in Key Largo.

The State of Florida has extended the Rate of Growth and Building Permit allocation systems in the Keys providing for continued measured residential growth; allowing for 3,500 new homes over the next 10 years. The moratorium on new transient units has been continued, which only provides for redevelopment of existing hotels, motels and RV parks.

The number of listings for sale (and lease) continues to decline while sales increase, resulting in price increases averaging almost 1% per month during 2014.

While Miami-Dade’s recovery proceeded slowly at first, increasing rates of job creation have now redeemed all recession-related losses. As of November, employment was up 39,500 jobs (3.7%) from the total recorded 12 months prior, following a gain of 22,900 jobs (2.2%) over the preceding 12 months.

Foreign investments continue to be key to Miami’s transformation as foreign investors view the market as a safe haven for investments.

A combined total of 3,409 market-rate apartments are currently under construction, the majority of which are located in the Miami and South Beach/Bayshore submarkets.

MARKET HIGHLIGHTS

With the advent of the Orlando area’s new SunRail, the new Dr. Phillips Performing Arts Center and multiple other area projects, new jobs and falling vacancies have returned Orlando to one of the top growing areas in the country!

New jobs emerging in multiple economic sectors, including the return of baby boomer retirees, have dramatically increased the migration to the Orlando area as the landing pad of Florida.

New construction has continued to blossom in all real estate sectors, with new projects in the Lake Nona “Medical City” area and several infill projects in Winter Park and Downtown Orlando, including new municipal projects like the Orlando City Soccer Stadium.

Residential transactions and values have gone up significantly over the last 12 months, including home builders ramping up new developments in emerging areas. Additionally, re-profiling infill urban residential and suburban subdivision remains strong as custom builders look to take advantage of existing lots and redevelopment projects left over from the downturn.

The Orlando area continues to grow beyond the economic boundaries of tourism, real estate and agriculture. New Technologies and their manufacturers continue to seek out Orlando as a home for their corporate offices, as well as their research/development and logistics.

INTERESTING FACT: Orlando is known as the #1 tourist destination in the world! Destinations like World Walt Disney World, Universal Studios, SeaWorld and others draw over 55 million visitors per year! Little known fact: Orlando intends to become the Biomedical Capital of the South with Lake Nona’s “Medical City” featuring Burnham Research, UCF, UF and FIT!

Health Care Industry expansions continue in Indian River County with the ground breaking of the $40M Indian River Medical Center’s (IRMC) Scully-Welsh Cancer Center. This deepens IRMC’s long affiliation with Duke Medical Center having opened the Duke Heart Center in 2009. Medical Office buildings (MOB’s) have traded in the $1M - $12M range with CAP Rates between 6-9%.

With Governor Scott’s significant statewide investment and commitment to tourism, the tourist industry continues to expand statewide. To meet the growing demand, Vero Beach broke ground on a new $12M 90 room Hampton Inn & Suites, scheduled to open in March 2015. It will be centrally located in Vero Beach along the popular Retail hub of Miracle Mile.

Retail expansion continues to increase. In 2014, two new Cumberland Farms stores opened, and in 2015 a Wawa convenience store and a Walmart Neighborhood Market are well into their planning stages. Vero Beach Outlets, a 329,000 SF outlet center, was purchased by Wharton Realty Group (WRG). In addition, in Vero Beach, McDonald’s, Chipotle, and Aspen Dental all opened new stores in 2014.

Southwest Florida, Naples and Fort Myers have finally recovered from the 6 year depression. Housing start-ups and developments are starting to increase again, although at a much slower rate than seen in the booming years of 2005-2007.

With the recovery of Residential, the Commercial markets are starting to pick up. Prices are up, but are anticipated to increase at higher percentages in the next two years. Rent rates are also increasing and probably will for several years.

Retail is king. Vacancy is down to 7.3%. Rates are increasing with Fifth Avenue South in Naples going for $50 or more PSF and $7.50 SF pass-throughs when and if you can find space. Old Time Pottery leased 70,000 SF in Bonita Beach; 39,795 SF to RLR Logistics in Fort Myers; and 25,000 SF to The Ranch. Naples is almost fully leased with limited availabilities in small spaces at higher rates.

The Office market is recovering, but the vacancy rate sits at 12.5%. Hertz is moving their world headquarters to Estero. Other nationals are giving the area a close look; more announcements are expected soon.

The Industrial market is extremely tight in Naples. Vacancy is only 4%, and there is no spec building because rents are too low. Fort Myers has a vacancy rate of 8%.

INTERESTING FACT: This is a great time to invest in Southwest Florida. There has been little new construction in 6 years. The strong residential market is expected to drive the demand for commercial and Industrial. CONTACT

Tradition Medical Center, which opened in 2014, is already at capacity with plans for continued expansion to its full 300 bed capacity. Nearby, Mann Research Center, which also opened in 2014, continues to lease its 45,000 SF Medical Office center. Together, both are merely the first phase in a multi-year commitment to create at 22-acre Medical Office and Life Sciences complex.

National chains and investors are eyeing the Sunshine State. Statewide, WaWa continues to build and open new stores with 25 opened in 2014 and 25 stores expected in 2015. Several will be located in St. Lucie County and on the Treasure Coast. Two national chains that are also coming to the Treasure Coast are Cumberland Farms and O’Reilly Auto Parts.

The Commercial market in St. Lucie County is poised for growth. Due to its central location between Orlando and Miami, South Florida commercial investors are coming back strong. With undeveloped parcels and land available for development, Land investors are back in the market. Another good sign is that several older Retail plazas are undergoing renovations and are re-tenanting.

Shrinking inventory, steady economic improvement and consumer confidence led to overall gains in the local housing market. In St. Lucie County, median single family homes prices rose 11.6% over last year to $155,000, placing it fourth in the state overall for median price growth. In addition, with 500 new construction jobs added in St. Lucie 2014, residential construction is rebounding.

Infrastructure projects have once again become a priority for the county, with expansion plans announced for several key artery roads including Floresta, Becker and the announcement of a Crosstown Parkway Bridge.

Tampa and Saint Petersburg are both experiencing a surge in urban core Apartment construction. Channelside, Harbour Island, Seminole Heights, Tampa Heights, SoHo and Ybor City all have projects under way or online. St. Petersburg also delivered multiple high-end Apartment projects and is riding a boom partially spurred by the craft brewery industry that has taken root in that city’s core.

The largest lease transaction in Q4 2014 was signed by WorldPay US: 130,000 SF at Atlantic Station in Midtown. The largest sale transaction in Q4 was Cousins Properties’ purchase of Northpark Town Center’s Portfolio: 1.53M SF Office complex for $348M or approximately $227 PSF.

Just over 20.3 million SF of net absorption was recorded in Atlanta’s Industrial market in 2014, a record annual amount for the city. The Atlanta Industrial market continues to be a focal point for companies structuring warehousing and distribution networks to serve their growing business.

The Central Perimeter Office market is swarming with new construction. Currently, 1.2M SF is underway in that market, with rumors of more corporate tenants entering in Q1 2015. Lease rates increased overall by nearly $0.40 PSF to $20.37 PSF, with Class A rising $0.57 PSF. The market remains a landlord market, but tenants are now gearing occupancy towards efficiency more than cost.

Favorable signs are emanating from the Atlanta housing market. The new home market is bouncing back in an impressive way. Builders are reporting that it is challenging to meet the level of demand within the Atlanta marketplace. Median metro area sales prices were up 13.9% over 2013.

At almost 9 million SF, Q4 2014 Industrial absorption was the highest in Atlanta in 13.5 years. The average quarterly absorption totaled over 5 million SF. As a result, Atlanta’s Industrial vacancy rate fell below 10% for the first time since 2001.

Industrial lead the way again, followed by national retailers developing several new projects. New developments along both Interstate corridors in all 4 directions continues.

Several new hotels have been built complementing existing hotels that have sold and changed their flagships. The Multi-Family sector has added new units, mainly with expansions to existing complexes. The University area has added student housing both on and off campus.

The Office sector is stable with most of the existing inventory absorbed during the year. No new high rise Office was added in 2014, but a new single story detached Medical Office is being built and sold.

Residential sales in 2014 surpassed the previous record year of 2013. The residential market has remained strong for the past 5 years in both new construction and existing homes. Days on the market consistently average less than 90 days.

The market will continue to be driven by the Oil and Gas industry. It will be challenged in 2015 if the price of oil remains less than $60 per barrel. Deep water drilling and natural gas production will be impacted less by the lower pricing. The key factors affecting supply and demand are independence from foreign oil imports because of increased U.S. production and the slow Global economy.

INTERESTING FACT: Lafayette’s economy has diversified since the last oil crisis in the 80’s and we have four strong industry legs now; Oil, Medical, The University and Technology. Entertainment and Tourism are just for FUN!

Chiquita Banana relocated its Gulf Coast shipping facility to the Port of New Orleans with shipments arriving in Q1 of 2015 and the addition of over 300 new jobs to the New Orleans region.

Vacancy across all sectors is decreasing due to increased population in the CBD, which has also resulted in the re-positioning of several failing properties to alternative uses like an office conversion to multi-family or office conversion to hotel.

Howard Hughes Corporation completed its conversion of the 250,000 SF River Walk Retail development, which is the nation’s first downtown outlet Retail center. River Walk was originally built in 1984 as part of the World’s Fair and spent much of the last decade in a state of disrepair prior to the acquisition and conversion by Howard Hughes Corp.

Approximately 1,500 new units of Multi-Family housing are slated for delivery in 2015 in the New Orleans CBD as a result of increased demand for rental housing near the city’s center.

Interest in single-tenant free-standing buildings or build-to-suit sites is brisk but also challenged by a shortage of Class A locations.

Several major renovations of Retail space between I-40 and 26th St on Georgia have re-energized that traditional Retail corridor into one of the hottest plays in the market.

El Paso’s economic activity continues to expand, according to the Dallas Fed. The unemployment rate fell by 1.6% at a much greater rate than 2013. While home sales increased from the year earlier, the median home sales price fell. However, inventory levels have declined. While El Paso Trade numbers fell slightly in 2014, manufacturing and employment in the El Paso/Juarez metro area have improved.

Retail vacancy rates decreased during Q4 to 4.9% according to CoStar. While quoted rents decreased slightly, rates have increased significantly over the past eighteen months, and certain premium shopping center locations are achieving rental rates in excess of $22.00 per SF per year.

The strong performance of the Retail sector coupled with much of the Retail properties being controlled by a few owners, a shortage of quality investment properties exists, with owners demanding record low cap rates.

With Office vacancy hovering just below 10%, the market has tightened. While the El Paso market is enjoying better occupancy than the national average, rental rate growth was lower compared to the national rate. Some significant Office transactions have been reported in the market, showing good demand for Class B and Class C properties that appear to offer a good opportunity for repositioning.

Mostly due to a couple of large tenants moving out of their buildings (Hoover vacating 423,000 SF, and Electrolux giving up 355,000 SF), the Industrial market took a slight dip in occupancy in Q4 of 2014. However, leasing activity on smaller inventory has been strong enough to reflect a positive absorption, allowing owners to increase asking rents.

The 160,000 SF Blue Bunny manufacturing plant was vacated in 2014. The CBC office in St. George is co-listing the building with DTZ Barry (Formerly Cassidy Turley). There are currently prospects considering the opportunity.

Vacancy rates across the board have fallen to historic lows due to an influx of new companies over the last few years, resulting in the absorption of most of the available properties in the market. Another contributing factor was employment growth, which has been steady throughout 2014.

A cursor of growth is the advent of new grocery stores coming into a market. Currently, there are 3 different grocery chains that have announced additional sites in Washington County.

REO and other bank owned properties have been absorbed. Several major residential subdivisions that were on hold are now in expansion mode.

St. George has seen continued growth in the Industrial sector.

The newly branded “Silicon Slopes” is considered one of the hottest markets in the nation, experiencing 636,160 SF of net positive absorption. Most of this absorption comes from large users seeking 25,000 SF or more. North Utah County had the most significant amount of positive absorption for any one submarket along the Wasatch Front.

Notable transactions observed this year included: Xactware, who moved into their 200,000 SF headquarters at Traverse Mountain in April; Henry Schein’s 100,000 SF new 4-story building at North Pointe Business Park; and Vivint occupying 125,000 SF at Thanksgiving Center. Thanksgiving Park completed its 100% leased Building 5 in 2014.

Thanksgiving Point/Traverse Mountain erected over 1.6 million SF of new space during the past 7 years. Pre-leasing success not only occurred in Thanksgiving Park: Traverse Ridge Center I and Thanksgiving Center also leased the entirety of their buildings prior to receiving the building’s certificate of occupancy in 2014.

Residential areas continue to grow as companies such as Adobe, IM Flash, Oracle, Microsoft, AtTask, Domo and Xactware have created an appealing and synergistic tech hub. The new $2 billion NSA facility will only add to this hyper-growth environment.

The level of net positive absorption in Utah county is even more impressive when comparing the Salt Lake and Utah County markets’ base square footage amounts. Utah County is approximately 1/3 the size of Salt Lake’s market base with approximately 12 million total SF of Office product, compared to 33 million SF in Salt Lake County.

REIS reports that Multi-Family vacancy in Pierce County is down to 4.2% and expected to go to 3.5%. This should continue through 2015 unless the Fed decides to increase interest rates in 2016. The units completed and absorbed are about equal, driving rents up and CAP Rates down.

The Seaport Alliance, signed in October, is expected to benefit both Seattle and Tacoma Port authorities. The outlook for Industrial in the greater Pierce/South King County is that modest growth will keep vacancy down and rents slowly rising. Notable sales include 24th St Industrial Park at $17.5 M, represented by CBCO, and The Park in Puyallup for $11.6 M.

State Farm Insurance will occupy 220,000 SF in downtown Tacoma, which is a welcome change to the sub-zero absorption rates for the previous 3 years. REIS reports that B/C properties in Pierce County are stable at 16.5% for 2014, with a significant downward trend in the next two years.

Bass Pro Shops and Hobby Lobby both made their debut in Pierce County with the backfill of a former Lowes Home Improvement and K-Mart, respectively. The vacancy for Neighborhood Community Centers in Pierce County was 12.9%, up 120 basis points for the year.

Optimism for a strong 2015 in Vancouver is high. Healthcare, education and government remain the largest employers in the Vancouver/Clark County area. Companies located within the county have access to a labor force of more than a million workers within a 30-mile radius.

Vacancy has been falling against moderate demand due largely to the fact there was never an overabundance of available space in any sector. Rates have remained steady with lease concessions.

• •

The most active sector experiencing new construction is Residential. There is very little true speculative Office development.

Multiple jurisdictions in Clark County currently offer fee-holidays on a range of traffic, building, site and engineering permitting, impact and development fees. The developer of a large project could expect to save over $100,000.00.

The Residential market continues to be hot. Land for Single and Multi-Family development sells quickly at ever increasing prices. Industrial properties remain in strong demand. Commercial development is steady at a measured pace supported by “leases in hand.”

INTERESTING FACT: Vancouver offers all the amenities of a big city, accompanied by affordability. The favorable business tax structure and zero personal taxes complement the low cost of living. I-5 connects the area to all the major markets along the West Coast. Washington is ranked #1 in the US when it comes to the concentration of science, tech, engineering and math jobs. CONTACT

Free trade with China has provided secure opportunities for investors and businesses entering into the Brisbane market.

Vacancy is falling due to business confidence, the global economy, and lending issues.

The Asian investment sector in Brisbane is performing well, releasing greater return rates compared to investments in Asia. Lending rates are at a record low of around 5%, which is also providing a favorable environment. As motor trade businesses are not performing as expected, developers are taking the opportunity to secure sites they once occupied for development opportunities.

INTERESTING FACT: Brisbane is the capital and most populous city in the Australian state of Queensland, the third most populous city in Australia. Brisbane’s metropolitan area has a population of just over 2.2 million, and the Southeast Queensland urban conurbation, centered around Brisbane encompasses a population of more than 3 million.

International company Liebherr Mobile Cranes and Earthmoving Equipment leased a 3,041sqm facility equipped with a new 16 and 5 tonne gantry cranes and heavy vehicle external washbay. International company Flexopack secures 5x5 year lease on a 2,528sqm facility backing onto M1 Pacific Motorway in Yatala.

The first half of 2014 struggled to gain momentum, mostly due to a slowing of the mining sector resulting in a overall lack of confidence in consumer spending and the willingness for businesses to consider expanding. Q4 of 2014 saw an increase in sale and leasing activity due to progressive increases in consumer and business confidence and forecasts of lower interest rates.

Construction has mostly been led by private developers with the ability to oversee and subcontract trades to reduce margins and provide viable leasing opportunities for Industrial tenants.

There is a dramatic uplift in residential towers being pre-sold off the plan to Chinese investors, and “Mum and Dad” investors via self-managed Super Funds.

An increase in Industrial leasing activity is driving the sale of Industrial land.

INTERESTING FACT: Prominent Industrial suburb Yatala, located midway between Brisbane and the Gold Coast, was home to Bullens African Lion Safari Park in the 1970’s and visitors could drive through to see camels, water buffalo, tigers, hyenas, elephants and lions. The park is now owned by the Telford family who has created a highly successful Industrial estate. CONTACT

The Gold Coast, located in Southeast Queensland, Australia and defined by its spectacular beaches, hinterland ranges, forests, waterways and vibrant communities, is an outstanding global city, which is proudly looking towards the future.

Gold Coast holiday markets are clearly back in vogue, as the sun is shining on the Gold Coast, one of Queensland’s largest holiday markets. Industry figures show that the Gold Coast accommodation market picked up in the past peak season after several quiet years due to poor weather and a high Australian dollar. Improvements in the Queensland economy and an increase in tourism from Asia have helped the market.

Further boosting tourism on the Gold Coast will be new multi-million dollar developments to attract tourists. Among the exciting new developments are the new $1 billion luxury hotel and apartments, “Jewel,” and the Jupiter’s Casino makeover. The project will consist of a luxury five-star hotel and two towers with restaurants, conference rooms and a beachfront park.

Taking a look at the prospects for Commercial property on the Gold Coast, Australia’s regional cities are increasingly seen by investors as an opportunity to add Commercial property to their portfolio at a lower entry price than in major cities such as Sydney, Brisbane or Melbourne. While there are plenty of challenges, there are also plenty of opportunities for the canny investor.

The quality of local government and business leadership is an element many investors overlook. A push is underway in Australia’s fastest growing city, the Gold Coast, which has seen the introduction of a new light rail service, a new Chinatown in Southport and with lots of employment and development opportunities with the Commonwealth Games in 2018 fast approaching.

The Office market in Perth is the barometer for the State’s economy. The lack of demand is a reflection of Western Australia’s (WA) economic performance. At the same time, Perth is undergoing a spike in CBD Office stock with over 145,000 SM due to come online in 2015.

Premium-grade buildings were the only category to report a single digit vacancy rate at just over 8%, almost double its rate in July. These results are in line with what the industry was expecting and preparing for.

Long term, there is great optimism for Perth as the commercial Office market stabilizes. The Office market in West Perth is feeling the pinch. It is anticipated that this will remain steady, with no additional stock coming online in the near future. There will be greater moves for Office building refurbishment, and the government has a role in incentivizing these changes.

The WA economy is still holding up well and is expected to do so for the medium term at least. Growth in WA’s gross state product has consistently outperformed national GDP growth since 2000, and while it is expected to slip slightly below the national growth rate in 2014-2015, forecasters are tipping a quick return to form thereafter.

The increased availability of space in combination with softer demand has seen incentives increase in Q2 to an average of 10% in Osborne Park/Herdsman and other non-CBD or suburban precincts, and 25% in the West Perth precinct.

INTERESTING FACT: Perth is the capital and largest city of the Australian state of Western Australia (WA). It is the fourth most populous city in Australia, with an estimated population of 1.97 million (30 June 2013) living in Greater Perth. CONTACT

Most metro markets in Sydney are seeing declining vacancy rates, driven by continuing tenant demand and a limited supply of stock.

Residential developments are becoming increasingly popular throughout Sydney, and this is influencing metropolitan commercial markets. Some metro markets have seen a reduction as a result of residential conversions, whilst, in others, development sites that would once have been developed for commercial use are being developed for residential.

Leasing has been steady across metro markets in the first half 2014. Tenants have been cautious though, seeking to renew leases rather than upgrade. Tenant inquiry has been increasing, and as business confidence grows nationally, greater activity occurred in the second half 2014.

Lack of new Commercial floor space supply has been inhibiting metro markets with low vacancy rates. Tenants are therefore being forced to consider other locations in order to access stock, in particular, large contiguous A Grade floor space.

Sydney’s metro markets have experienced a flow-on effect from the rapidly increasing acquisition costs of CBD commercial sites. The influx of foreign investor capital has brought pressure on domestic purchasers to compress their feasibilities.

INTERESTING FACT: Sydney is the state capital of New South Wales and the most populous city in Australia. Located on Australia’s east coast, the metropolis surrounds one of the world’s largest natural harbors, Sydney Harbor. Residents are together known as “Sydneysiders” and constitute the most multicultural city in Australia and one of the most multicultural cities in the world. CONTACT

As of 2014, the estimated value of major projects within Edmonton Capital region was $57.8 billion; of which $34.4 billion are within the oil and gas, oil sands and pipeline sector.

The Edmonton region has been rated as one of the most diverse economies in Canada by the Conference Board of Canada, and it has some unique drivers that form the backbone of economic growth: Alberta’s oil sands, the government sector and entrepreneurship.

The Office market net absorption for 2014 was over 210,000 SF. There was $693.5 M in investment sales completed in 2014. Volatility in the crude oil market is projected to continue throughout 2015.

The Office Market in 2014 did not end on a high note. 2015 looks like a continued “Tenant’s Market” as downtown’s core and most suburban markets are experiencing higher vacancy rates. Landlords continue to offer various incentives to attract and retain tenants. The overall vacancy rate is currently at 11.4%.

With limited new supply and continued demand, Ottawa’s Industrial scene continues to flourish. Rental rates continue to be healthy and are approaching $10 per SF. This trend is expected to continue into 2015 as tenants are looking for quality, welllocated spaces with exposure and good access to main highways.

KRP, Kanata’s largest Office landlord, acquired 7 more Office properties from GM Pension Fund to control over 50% of all Class A and B Office inventory in Kanata. Monopolistic play is expected to cause ripple effects as rental rates are on the rise and inducement packages are in restraint. Expect tenant concerns!

New Residential high-rise condo developments are slowing as the market becomes saturated. Selective developments are planned over time.

Ottawa’s new $2B LRT project is under construction with 2.5 KM of tunnel-drilling under the downtown core being active. Landlords are now looking to accommodate access points along the surface. Sun Life Financial Centre is planning a major retrofit for a transit station on site.

Vancouver’s Commercial real estate market continues to see record sales and low vacancy rates driven by net migration, low interest rates and a world class safe environment.

• •

B.C. will experience net immigration in 2015 of about 34,600 immigrants and 2,600 provincial migrants.

Vancouver has very low square footage of Retail space per capita (13 SF), compared to a Canadian per capita rate of 19 SF and the U.S.’s 30 SF.

“China Widens the Door to Outbound Investment” noted that offshore Chinese investment is encouraged, rather than directly in the financial district. The area expects a huge increase in sales of B.C. Commercial real estate to buyers from China.

INTERESTING FACT: Vancouver is experiencing its most mild winter in history with next to zero snowfall and above normal warm temperatures. Famous for the natural beauty of the Pacific Coastal mountains and scenic waterfront setting, Vancouver attracts tourists and immigrants.

“Mumbai Next” is an initiative by the state government to transform the country’s financial capital into a global financial and entertainment center. The geographical location of the city between Singapore and London is best placed strategically in terms of time zone to become an international finance center.

Facebook has secured 120,000 SF of new Offices in Dublin’s Grand Canal.

Property prices in Ireland are now rising at a higher rate than anywhere else in the EU, according to figures from Eurostat. The agency’s latest property price barometer indicates house prices here rose by 15% in the 12 months to the end of September last year, more than six times the EU average of 2.3%.

All Primary Markets of Investment, Retail, Office, Industrial & Logistics and Residential have seen hardening of yields and price increases year over year.

Vacancy levels are falling due to a lack of new Office building projects. Only 8,000 new homes have been built in Ireland compared to 90,000 in 2007. Society of Chartered Surveyors Ireland say 30,000 homes are needed per Annum.

INTERESTING FACT: ESRI expects GNP to grow 4.6% in 2015.

Several large scale energy suppliers and services have been opening in sectors inside the island and are making large purchases of land in the central and south regions. This includes two new recycling plants on the island.

Hotel and Hospitality sectors have seen an increase of over 20% with new chains absorbing independent hotel owners. Financial investment and upgrades have given a positive forecast, and two new large scale luxury hotels are soon opening on the island.

The lack of funding for Commercial structures on the island has caused a decrease in market value. The buyers pool of outside investors who are looking to buy Commercial buildings have increased due to their attraction to the high rents, and lower property tax benefits.

Foreclosures of Land and Commercial buildings are leveling off, giving investors great opportunities. Financial institutions are more open to price negotiation with their Commercial properties.

Major Retail and food industry franchises are opening shop on the island. Their main focus has been in the center of the island and other larger cities with higher density. Consumer product purchase is high with a 15% increase from last year.

INTERESTING FACT: Many of the tax incentives that were offered to outside inventors and overseas investors have been brought back after they were eliminated. Tax incentives in and outside of the Commercial real estate sector have attracted more small-to-midsized investors. CONTACT

Top three Romanian telecom players will move their actual headquarters, as Orange leased 13,700 SM in Green Court. Developed by Skanska in Barbu Vacarescu area, Vodafone chose the same area and pre-leased 5,733 SM in Bucharest One, while Telekom Romania pre-leased approximately 25,000 SM in Globalworth Campus from the Pipera area. Globalworth investment fund is the owner of these three buildings.

Bucharest prime Office rent remained stable at 18.75 euro/SM while the vacancy rate slightly decreased to around 14% for the whole market. Barbu Vacarescu is the hottest area facing rapid take-up, new developments in progress, and was offered the largest transaction in the past 5 years when NEPI bought Promenada Mall for €148M and totaled more than €300M investment in 2014.

Bucharest’s outskirt areas recorded in the last 3 years a boom in terms of new Residential construction. Projects like Cosmopolis, Military Residence, Confort Urban or Sud Residential delivered last year more than 1,000 apartments, accounting for more than 40% of the total market. Most of the investors have Romanian nationality compared to the 2005-2008 period when the majority of investors were foreign.

More than 80% of the residential new market is focused on affordable dwellings that meet “Prima Casa” government program standards with less than 70,000 Euro criterion. Recently delivered projects offer small size apartments with less than 70 SM and 1 or 2 bedrooms at average prices ranging from 600 to 900 euro/SM. This trend was driven by stringent financing polices and low GDP growth.

The Real Estate market in Bucharest has strongly developed towards a more standardized market with well established segmentation. Speculative investments are over, off-plan sales are no longer sustainable and the end-users are generally well informed.

The “Citizenship By Investment” program continues to dominate the real estate sales in St. Kitts and Nevis.

• •

The second-home leisure market is finally showing improvement in sales.

Villa rentals and hotel occupancy show some improvement in occupancy, but still have not recovered to pre-recession levels. Several new “Citizenship by Investment” projects in St. Kitts and Nevis have received planning approval or have already broken ground, including The Kingfisher Club on Nevis.

Commercial opportunities include rental accommodation for offshore medical and veterinary school attendees.

INTERESTING FACT: The economy of Saint Kitts and Nevis continues to improve and is receiving high praise from the IMF, as it is one of the best performing economies in the Caribbean region. Government debt fell drastically from 200% to 85% of GDP and continues to fall each year.

MARKET HIGHLIGHTS

Spain is recovering faster than expected from one of the deepest crises in history.

The crisis decimated the real estate sector, leaving incredible opportunities behind. Investors are taking advantage of these opportunities, which is driving the market upwards.

The lack of backing from the financial sector and the locals opened the door to foreign investors, who were taking advantage of low prices. The situation has now changed, with Spanish Banks opening financing to the locals. This, together with the ECB support through the new QE programs, will drive the market in the coming months.

The Residential market in premium areas of Barcelona and Madrid is expected to trend up again in 2015. There is a need for new construction in the downtown areas of Barcelona and Madrid.

In 2015, Spain is expected to be the fastest recovering market in Europe. During 2014 and 2015, foreign investment is flowing to Spain again.

INTERESTING FACT: Spain also includes the Balearic Islands in the Mediterranean Sea, the Canary Islands in the Atlantic Ocean and a number of uninhabited islands on the Mediterranean side of the Strait of Gibraltar, known as plazas de soberanía (territories under Spanish sovereignty), such as the Chafarinas Islands, Alhucemas, and the tiny Perejil islet.

Large companies, such as Apple, have moved to Dubai.

Prices have appreciated a lot in 2014 and are now decreasing for residential properties. The market is expecting to be stable in the next 2 months.

Developers are taking an interest in buying plots for residential projects as there is a great demand for residential projects.

Vacancy levels have increased due to a rapid increase in population. Developers have started construction on all projects that were on hold during the recession because of strict instructions from the Dubai Land Department. They have to complete their projects by 2016.

INTERESTING FACT: Dubai is famous for the best hospitality in the world and some landmark structures like the tallest building in the world (Burj Khalifa) and the best shopping malls, like Dubai Mall, Mall of the Emirates, etc.
