EAGLE'S NEST In case you haven’t heard, Austin is hot. We’re now in the dog days of summer and the mercury is regularly reaching the century mark. Despite the fact that you could cook your breakfast taco on the pavement (and probably sell it at a nice premium by calling it “homegrown”), people continue to move to Austin in droves. As of June of this year, the Austin-Round Rock MSA added over 38,000 jobs in twelve months – the fourth most of major metros in the country. The month of June alone saw an

increase of 10,645 people joining the labor force. Where are all of these people moving? The short answer is everywhere – anyone will tell you it’s hard to find a spot in central Texas that is less crowded than just a few years ago. The longer answer is Georgetown, New Braunfels and Pflugerville. These three cities rank among the fastest growing cities in the country with populations of 50,000 or more, with Georgetown topping out the list.

The Central Eastside is tamer than the Lower Eastside, as residents are typically graduate students or young families, often new to Central Texas. To that end, multi-national retailers are more apt to lay claim to this area, most notably in the Mueller Community. After Austin’s first civilian airport, Robert Mueller Municipal Airport, was replaced by Austin Bergstrom International Airport in 1999, the 700-acre site was redeveloped into a Planned Unit Development (PUD) by Catellus. The area is replete with single and multi-family housing for over 13,000 residents, 4

SPECIAL REPORT

Eastside Village

Thoroughfares such as Airport Boulevard, Manor Road and Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard are examples of core transit corridors connecting the Central Eastside to the rest of Austin, and many retailers are capitalizing on the added traffic generated by the increased accessibility. Manor Road, for example, has several of the hippest new bars outside of the downtown and East 6th areas, as well as Salty Sow, one of Austin’s must-eat restaurants, as evidenced by Michelle Obama’s recent patronage during this year’s SXSW conference. Lincoln Ventures is one of the first office developers to capitalize on the Manor Road frenzy with two creative office buildings under construction at The Station on Manor – just blocks away from the MLK Station TOD – and another mixed-use development set to break ground later this year: 2015 Manor, which has already signed Texas Mutual Insurance Company for approximately 270,000 sf.

Upper Eastside The Upper Eastside, defined by the area north of 51st Street, south of Highway 290 and west of Highway 183, is the least developed office market. Here you will find mainly older, Class B and C office buildings along the highways and mid-to-late-century homes in between. The area is not to be dismissed; however, as just north of Highway 290 lie several industrial complexes, and many would argue that the Lower and Central Eastside looked much like this area does now just a few decades ago. As the popularity of East Austin continues to grow, tenants and residents alike will surely desire the next, hippest spots with affordability and proximity to downtown. Furthermore, with Round Rock just to the north and quickly expanding down I-35 as plans are set in place to ease the traffic flow, the two growing areas will have to meet somewhere in between.

CBD

2Q UPDATE Last quarter, Austinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s CBD saw the biggest quarter-over-quarter jump in asking Class A rental rates of all time: a $3.88 jump from 4Q 2015 to 1Q 2016. The primary cause of this spike can be attributed to the dramatic increases in operating expenses. This quarter, the positive trend continued, though much more steadily, with a stable $0.41 increase to $47.93. The fact that there was not a negative shift in rental rates from such a drastic spike in the first quarter points to the strength of the market.

CBD UPDATE

Downtown asking rental rates reached all-time highs for the second consecutive quarter across all classes of buildings this quarter. While the CBD saw negative absorption for the first time in two years, the majority of this negative activity occurred in Class B and C buildings. When looking at the list of Class A buildings in or near the core of downtown (the list of these competitive set buildings can be found on page 47), over 100,000 sf of space was absorbed. This comes in the wake of the delivery of Lincoln Property Group’s 5th + Colorado, the first Class A office delivery since 501 Congress one year ago. 5th + Colorado delivered 84% occupied with an asking rental rate of $40.00 – tying it for the highest asking rate in Austin with 100 Congress and Frost Bank Tower. One of the largest increases in vacancy occurred at 301 Congress, which saw an increase in vacancy of 44,541 sf this quarter. This can be attributed to the fact that Gerson Lehrman Group was occupying about 40,000 sf of temporary space while their new space on the 14th & 15th floors was being built-out and off market. Considering this, only six buildings saw a true increase in directly unoccupied space,

25

with the average of those increases totaling approximately 10,500 sf. In total, there was just over 400,000 sf available to lease within the downtown Class A competitive set at the close of the quarter. This is the highest total of available square footage in three quarters, but well below the ten-year average of approximately 700,000 sf. Over the past ten years, the CBD competitive set has added 1.3 million sf with an average total vacancy rate of 12.3%. With rental rates continuing to squeeze upwards, the market for prime downtown office space further tightened this quarter. Between the two new office projects under construction – 500 W 2nd and Shoal Creek Walk – there is only 320,213 sf remaining to pre-lease. Given these statistics, it appears as though there is no slowdown in sight for downtown rental rates, further highlighting the importance of comparable spaces on the periphery of downtown.

For an in depth analysis of increasing operating expenses, see the special report in AQUILA’s 2015 Q4 Austin Market Report 1

Direct & Sublease Vacancy Rate

$35.44

Avg. Class A Full Service Rental Rate

Following a drop in vacancy rates at the end of 2015, the NW submarket has experienced an uptick in vacancy rates this year. The 1Q 2016 vacancy rate rose significantly in response to the delivery of two major projects, Domain 1 and Domain 5, which introduced over 200,000 sf of new space to the Northwest submarket. Coupled with the addition of IBMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Broadmoor Campus, the vacancy rate rose over two hundred basis points from 4Q 2015 to 1Q 2016.


NORTHWEST UPDATE

Domain 8, currently under construction with an estimated delivery date of 1Q 2017, will add another 300,000 sf to the NW submarket. This addition, which will be the largest Class A office building at The Domain, is currently 0% preleased. However, it is widely believed that there are deals in place to fill most of this space upon delivery. This quarter, the bulk of the availability in the competitive set can be attributed to Braker Pointe III. As renovations are underway at the old Harcourt building, almost 200,000 sf of vacant space is being counted against the areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s absorption. Out of the 132 competitive

set buildings in the Northwest submarket, only 17 saw an increase in directly available area, while 27 experienced positive direct absorption. Several transactions occurred this quarter in the NW submarket. Two major properties exchanged hands, including the 137,000 sf Quarry Oaks III, leased by Bazaarvoice, and the 100,000 sf Lakewood on the Park B, which sold for approximately $21 million. Trend Micro signed on for approximately 75,000 sf of space at Domain 5. Accruent also recently announced that it will consolidate its Austin headquarters in a building at the Domain.

The flurry of activity within the Arboretum/ Domain Micromarket suggests that proximity to amenities is a major factor attracting tenants to the Northwest submarket. The 2Q 2016 rental rate for this micromarket, $36.09, is more than a dollar higher than the rental rate for the overall submarket and quickly approaching rates in the Southwest submarket. At $34.62 in 2Q, rental rates in the Northwest

33

remain the lowest of the three major submarkets. Combined with the growth of amenities in and around the Domain, comparatively low rental rates will likely continue to draw major companies into the Northwest submarket.

SOUTHWEST SUBMARKET 2Q UPDATE -20,795 SF Net Absorption

10.99%

Direct & Sublease Vacancy Rate

$38.82

A historically resilient submarket, the performance of the competitive set of Southwest Class A office buildings remained fairly on par with the previous two quarters. With no major deliveries since Encino Trace in 3Q 2015, vacancy rates steadily climbed for the third quarter in a row, reaching its highest level in almost four years at nearly 11%. Absorption is now at a negative 13,653 sf for the year.

SOUTHWEST UPDATE

In spite of these seemingly adverse statistics, asking rental rates steadily marched upwards to a record high rate of $38.82 – the 17th consecutive quarter of record highs – and several new projects and leases were announced this quarter.

lifestyle company prepares for explosive growth with mentions of an initial public offering, the move down the street from their current headquarters at 5301 Southwest Parkway will be a short, but huge event for both the company and the Austin real estate market.

Mirna Therapeutics signed for approximately 24,000 sf at the recently delivered Encino Trace II. According to their Form 8-K filing

In addition to Lantana Ridge, two more projects broke ground this quarter: Walsh Tarlton Overlook and The Overlook at Barton

with the SEC in June, Mirna is entitled to approximately $80/ sf of improvement allowances and three months of free rent for a 123-month lease with a starting base rental rate of approximately $25/ sf – $1.50/sf higher than the asking rate.

Over a million square feet of planned developments remain in the pipeline waiting to sign major tenants and begin construction.

Apple plans to start moving in to its 215,000 sf space at Capital Ridge later this year – more than a year after the lease was signed. Given this information, CBRE, who tracks absorption according to physical occupancy of space, will likely show a huge uptick in absorption in the Southwest submarket in 3Q. It was confirmed this quarter that Yeti signed on to fully occupy 175,000 sf at Lantana Ridge I & II upon its delivery in 2017. As the outdoor

Creek, which will add 55,500 sf and 53,091 sf of space, respectively. Meanwhile, over a million square feet of planned developments remain in the pipeline waiting to sign major tenants and begin construction.

Given the above information, the Southwest submarket proves to be a curious one. Landlords are proceeding cautiously with developments, hoping to land credit or desirable tenants like Apple or Yeti before breaking ground. Smaller companies are still attracted to the Southwest submarket as well due to its proximity to Westlake Hills, where many executives reside. There is increasing demand for higher-quality spaces – much like in the CBD. For example, in the Near Southwest

SOUTHWEST UPDATE

micromarket, there have been ten deals under 10,000 sf this year in The Terrace project alone. The movement of tenants towards newer spaces has caused Class A rental rates to rise while

Class C rates dropped by $1.74 this quarter. Furthermore, Class A is the only property class to experience positive total absorption year-to-date.

THE AQUILA

METHODOLOGY

CHANGES THIS QUARTER •

All submarket, micromarket and individual property materials, tables and graphs prior to the appendix are based on AQUILA research unless otherwise noted. Historically, submarket statistics have been based on CBRE statistics. CBRE-based submarket statistics have been moved to the appendix.

•

The figures on the title pages for each of the submarkets (pages 24, 31, 37) are now based on AQUILA research. Historically, they have been based on CBRE statistics. The figures on the title page for the citywide update (page 18) is still based on CBRE statistics.

•

Absorption figures based on CBRE statistics have historically been our calculation of the difference of total occupied square feet (Absorption = (NRA2 – Total Vacant SF2) – (NRA1 – Total Vacant SF1)). This differs from CBRE’s calculation, which is measured as changes on physically occupied space — amount occupied compared and measured to amount occupied. As of 2016 Q1, CBRE no longer discloses Total Vacant SF. Therefore, on the datasets that are based on CBRE statistics, the absorption figures now directly reflect those provided by CBRE, rather than on our calculation.
