A NEW GENERATION
How Technology and a Changing Workforce will Revolutionize the Office Market as we know it
As Gainesville prepares to moves into the next year, the office market is facing strong market fundamentals. Offices in Gainesville in 2022 had a vacancy rate of 5.5 % with healthy investment sales activity and slow acceleration in rent growth (2 6%) However, at both the local and national level, the office sector is preparing to undergo a major market shift due to the emergence of hybrid workplace trends This shift is a result of the pandemic and generation workforce changes amid growing recession concerns, preventing tenants from signing longer term leases and precluding landlords from pushing aggressive rent growth Office owners can help prepare for these changes by introducing new amenities, being more accommodating to tenant needs, and providing smaller, shorter-term spaces across a wider location
Understanding Generation Z
Born between 1997 and 2009, Generation Z (or Gen Z) are expected to account for over a quarter of the workforce by 2025. It is important to understand Gen Z’s backgrounds to prepare for future workplace trends and how these trends will affect office space needs.
How Generation Z is Different
Generation Z is very different than previous generations and are a clear break from previous demographics Markers of their generation include having no recollection of the world without internet, growing up during the Great Recession, and experiencing intense social movements and cultural discussions
Today, most entering the workforce are expecting the same from their employers As Generation Z continues to fill a larger role in the workforce, employers are going to begin to see smarter, more practical applicants looking for customization and flexibility in their positions. This has and will continue to result in a higher desire for more stable, practical jobs with higher tech office spaces that provide opportunities to work from home. [Scan QR Code for Full Article]

WHY USE A CCIM?
There are countless benefits to working with a CCIM. Commercial real estate investment requires the counsel of a qualified professional. A Certified Commercial Investment Member provides clients with the assurance that every decision will be made in the best interest of their investment objectives.
When assembling a commercial real estate investment team, start with a CCIM.
CREDIBILITY
CCIM is the most prestigious designation commercial real estate professionals can achieve within the industry. Graduate-level education, coupled with industry-leading technology tools, practical proven experience, and indepth knowledge of their local markets, gives CCIMs the ability and the credibility to conduct business confidently and successfully By partnering with a CCIM, you effectively utilize the top-level, most reliable performers in the industry: with an average of 19 years of experience, 70% of CCIM members hold executive-level positions and 90% of members refer clients to other business services. When you use a CCIM, you choose the most credible professional in the business.
COMMUNITY
Today there are CCIMs in every state, across Canada and Mexico, and in more than 30 countries around the world. Domestically, the network encompasses more than 1,000 markets, from large metropolitan areas to small cities and towns A truly global network, CCIMs are a powerful force in markets large and small. When you use a CCIM, you choose a trusted community of real estate professionals that are consistently sought for their dependability, intelligence, success and confidence.
INTEGRITY
CCIM designees are bound to the strictest ethical guidelines and standards of practice in the industry today In addition, each CCIM has successfully completed a graduate level program comprised of 160 hours of education If you ask around the industry, you’ll learn that companies and other real estate professionals are more likely to seek out experts who possess the CCIM designation, as they know CCIM stands for trust, knowledge and reliability. When you use a CCIM, you choose experts with integrity
M
EASUREMENT
Overall, CCIM’s global network enables members to close thousands of transactions annually, representing more than $200 billion in value But closing transactions is only part of what CCIMs can do. In addition to holding dealmaking occupations in every property sector, CCIMs are also found in leasing, asset management, development, lending, financing, property management, site selection and corporate real estate positions So, whatever assistance your real estate project requires, a CCIM can help you achieve a better result. In fact, only 6 percent of all commercial real estate practitioners hold the elite CCIM designation, which reflects not only the caliber of the program, but why it is one of the most respected designations in the industry When you use a CCIM, you choose a professional who produces measurable results.
The CCIM designation is conferred by the Chicago-based CCIM Institute, a commercial real estate affiliate of the National Association of REALTORS® Learn more about the value of working with a CCIM

Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice of the CCIM Institute of the National Association of REALTORS®
CCIM DESIGNEES and CCIM Institute CANDIDATES are members of the CCIM Institute (referred to herein as the Institute). Where the term "CCIM Institute Members" is used in this Code and Preamble, it shall apply to both categories of membership.
While the Code of Ethics establishes obligations that may be higher than those mandated by law, in any instance where the Code of Ethics and the law conflict, the obligations of the law must take precedence
PREAMBLE
Under all is the land. Upon its wise utilization and widely allocated ownership depend the survival and growth of free institutions and of our civilization. Institute members should recognize that the interests of the nation and its citizens require the highest and best use of the land and the widest distribution of land ownership. They require the creation of adequate housing, the building of functioning cities, the development of productive industries andfarms, and the preservation of a healthful environment
Such interests impose obligations beyond those of ordinary commerce. They impose grave social responsibility and a patriotic duty to which Institute members should dedicate themselves, and for which they should be diligent in preparing themselves. Institute members, therefore, are zealous to maintain and improve the standards of their calling and share a common responsibility for its integrity and honor.
In recognition and appreciation of their obligations to clients, customers, the public, and each other, Institute members continuously strive to become and remain informed on issues affecting real estate and, as knowledgeable professionals, they willingly share the fruit of their experience and study with others. They identify and take steps, through enforcement of this Code of Ethics and by assisting appropriate regulatory bodies, to eliminate practices which may damage the public or which might discredit or bring dishonor to the CCIM designation, the CCIM Institute or the real estate profession. CCIM Institute members having direct personal knowledge of conduct that may violate the Code of Ethics involving misappropriation of client or customer funds or property, willful discrimination, or fraud resulting in substantial economic harm, bring such matters to the attention of the appropriate Board or Association of REALTORS® and the CCIM Institute (NAR Amended 1/00; CCIM Amended 10/06)
Realizing that cooperation with other real estate professionals promotes the best interests of those who utilize their services, Institute members urge exclusive representation of clients; do not attempt to gain any unfair advantage over their competitors; and they refrain from making unsolicited comments about other practitioners. In instances where their opinion is sought, or where Institute members believe that comment is necessary, their opinion is offered in an objective, professional manner,
