Marcus & Millichap touts virtues of Texas Economies

BY BRANDI SMITH

Confidence in the retail commercial real estate market is on the rise in 2019, according to Marcus & Millichap. In its 2019 Retail North American Investment Forecast, the national brokerage firm points to a steady year of completions ahead, “on par with 2018.” The U.S. economy, it argues, is strong due to tax-induced growth and a tight labor market.

The future of brick-and-mortar retail development, the firm suggests, will be dictated by online competition. Retailers are now tasked with offering something that isn’t available via a quick Google search: service-oriented businesses, “from healthcare to fitness to dining and a variety of entertainment venues.” Even in the face of multiple big-box retailers closing up shop, property owners have managed to turn things around, filling the storefronts instead with retailers looking for a smaller space.

Many of these properties are considered “undervalued relative to performance,” per Marcus & Millichap.

If there’s a single theme that runs through the 67-page analysis, it’s ‘strength in technology.’ The rationale here is simple: cities with a heavy tech presence tend to have a higher salary base and more discretionary spending, a win for retailers. That’s evident in Marcus & Millichap’s highest-rated markets: Seattle and San Francisco, No. 1 and No. 2, respectively.

Only two Texas cities slipped into the Top 10: Austin, No. 9, and Dallas, No. 10. San Antonio lands the 25th spot on the list, while Houston is No. 27. Detroit and St. Louis rounded out the 46-market list.

On a related note, investors are also looking to expand their portfolios to include smaller metro areas. Because there’s less construction in these areas, demand is peaking.

10

MAY 2019

When it comes to assets in the Austin market, the analysis says the single-tenant sector will stay competitive. But it also suggests increased investor interest in grocery-anchored neighborhood centers, said to be “at the top of investors’ wish lists in 2019.” Looking to the end of 2019, Marcus & Millichap suggests asking rents will continue to rise, reaching $23.11 per square foot.

PROJECT TO WATCH IN AUSTIN:

Digital growth is also impacting the industry in a huge way because many of those previously onlineonly brands are expanding their physical footprint.

Showrooms for web-based companies such as Warby Parker are becoming the new normal as a way to make sure customers have a full experience. As they do, Marcus & Millichap predicts the vacancy rate will stay low, helping to boost demand and asking rents.

The analysis also suggests that the days of chasing rooftops are nearing their end. Instead, Marcus & Millichap points to the success of investors who track employees. Revitalized business centers and the workforce that comes along with them offer plenty of incentive for the creation of neighboring retail centers.

that could change in the near future as tech workers in some of the more expensive markets decide to relocate to a city with a much more affordable cost of living.

AUSTIN In the Texas capital, the job market is both a strength and weakness, dropping Austin from the No. 6 position in 2018. The unemployment rate, which hasn’t ventured far from 3 percent in roughly two years, indicates Austin’s economy is doing well.

However, it’s also limiting growth; there just aren’t enough workers available to encourage companies to add to their payrolls. Marcus & Millichap predicts

Apple announced at the end of 2018 that it plans to build a new $1 billion campus in North Austin. Going in less than a mile from Apple’s existing campus, the new 133-acre project will add 5,000 workers initially, though the tech giant expects that number to expand to 15,000 in the future. Construction is expected to take until 2021.

AUSTIN FAST FACTS: May 2019 unemployment rate: 2.6% Estimated retail construction in 2019: 700,000 SF Estimated jobs added in 2019: 28,000

PROJECT TO WATCH IN DALLAS:

DALLAS-FORT WORTH In many ways, Dallas-Fort Worth is the economic opposite of Austin. While the two are both celebrating successes, their wins are generated in entirely different ways. As Austin struggles to add jobs, the Metroplex added 117,900 jobs in 2018 and is expected to add another six figures this year. The draw comes largely from the north, “where large office parks and master-planned communities are attracting workers,” says Marcus & Millichap. That growth pushed DFW up two places on the top markets list this year.

DFW is also benefiting from an influx of out-of-state capital. As interest rates have increased, an emphasis on low-cap-rate markets has driven investor behavior.

Developers won’t deliver quite as much retail space as they did last year, but with 3.1 million square feet estimated to come online in 2019, there is no shortage predicted. In fact, Marcus & Millichap anticipates vacancy rates will actually dip to 4.5 percent by the end of the year.

MAY 2019

With its groundbreaking last summer, Hillwood Communities began building Pecan Square, its largest residential development. The $1.5 billion mixed-use community will stretch over 1,150 acres in Northlake, a northern suburb in the Metroplex. The first phase includes more than 600 homes, but there will be more than 3,000 when the development is complete. It will also have a state-of-the-art town square as a focal point, which will offer everything from coworking space to workout facilities to a classic Texas party barn.

PROJECT TO WATCH IN HOUSTON: Houston-based Midway is getting started on what it bills as “one of the most important urban development sites for a generation”: East River, a mixed-use project spanning 150 acres along Buffalo Bayou.

Less than a mile from downtown Houston, the master plan calls for a decades-long approach, creating distinctive districts within the massive project.

HOUSTON The largest city in Texas shows no signs of slowing down its population growth, boasting an average of 350 new residents every day. They’re coming for jobs; Houston added 111,110 positions in 2018, most of them outside the volatile energy sector. That shift is an indication that Houston is diversifying its job market, as well as a positive sign for the retail market.

Just as in other Texas markets, investors are less keen on strip centers. They’re instead focusing their energy and assets on grocery-anchored neighborhood centers.

HOUSTON FAST FACTS: May 2019 unemployment rate: 4.1% Estimated retail construction in 2019: 4.1 million SF Estimated jobs added in 2019: 110,000

SAN ANTONIO FAST FACTS: May 2019 unemployment rate: 3.2% Estimated retail construction in 2019: 1.9 million SF Estimated jobs added in 2019: 9,000

SAN ANTONIO Developers will deliver more than twice as much retail space in 2019 as they did in the previous year. All that new construction comes with a price: an expected increase in the vacancy rate, which closed 2018 at 4.7 percent. With less than half of the space leased so far, Marcus & Millichap expects vacancy to finish 2019 around the 5 percent mark.

14

MAY 2019

“Investors are targeting these properties due to modestly higher yields, which helps improve spreads,” according to the report. It also suggests that 2019 is the time to focus on single-tenant assets, like those offered up on pad sites, due to the new construction. Smaller strip centers are also expected to be a target for buyers because of a “less aggressive bidding climate.”

Cedar Hill, One of the Best Walkable Cities in Texas,

is About to Get Even Better

Cedar Hill’s City Center Plan Makes for One of the Best Walkable Cities in Texas Cedar Hill is widely known for having some of the best hiking in Dallas, and that tie to nature and walking is also evident in the City Center Development Plan.

New enhancements to the City of Cedar Hill are on the

of Cedar Hill – Uptown, Midtown and Historic Downtown – each of which has distinct needs and opportunity. By creating a plan that benefits each zone, the Cedar Hill as a whole is strengthened and made more appealing to both brands and consumers. The focus on accessibility and enhanced walkability is also designed to draw patrons from the best suburbs around Dallas and to make Cedar Hill a charming and attractive destination for shopping, dining, work and play.

Transit-Oriented Development Vision The heart of the development plan is an enhanced focus on transit-oriented development (TOD). This approach takes a long-term view of the area and integrates improvements that increase commerce and visitor counts but decrease traffic and carbon emissions. The result is a diverse and thriving marketplace with a balanced mix of commerce, retail and restaurant and residential zones that benefit both businesses and consumers. way, and they are designed with businesses, residents and consumers in mind. The next phase of development for the city focuses on improving the accessibility and walkability of each of the three distinctive zones within the City Center area including historic downtown.

These improvements are designed to make the city easier to explore, more convenient to shoppers and employers and to build upon an already thriving and unique downtown area. As one of the best suburbs in Dallas, the City of Cedar Hill already draws new arrivals from all over the state; the latest enhancements make it easier than ever to enjoy all the city has to offer.

The Next Phase of Development for Cedar Hill The enhanced walkability is part of the City of Cedar Hill’s ongoing improvements and is designed to build upon the success of the overall Vision Plan. This stage, called the City Center Development Plan, focuses on taking one of the best downtowns in Texas and making it more easily accessible to pedestrians and visitors from the local area.

The plan focuses on benefits for the three sub-districts

Benefits of Enhanced Walkability For businesses in the area – or businesses planning to open in the area – the enhancements to Cedar Hill’s walkability means more opportunity. By creating appealing, easy-to-access and clearly defined walking areas, the town makes it easy for pedestrians to explore. When shoppers, hungry patrons and workers can simply walk to their destination without the hassle of driving or looking for parking they are more likely to stay right in town – and use local businesses. The City of Cedar Hill is already considered one of the best places to visit in Dallas-Fort Worth; the upcoming changes make this desirable destination even more appealing to visitors.

The current emphasis on healthy lifestyles means these changes come at a great time and that more foot traffic than ever before will be window shopping and accessing local restaurants and cafes for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Businesses can tempt shoppers with the smell of coffee, fresh-baked pastries or savory lunch specials as they walk by – and take advantage of display

|

window space to showcase new arrivals and seasonal goods to slower-paced foot traffic. Walkable cities in Texas enjoy more visitors, more commerce and more revenue every week.

For consumers, the ability to simply walk where they need to go or find easy and secure public transportation reduces costs and hassle. Without parking or traffic woes, these potential shoppers and diners are able to get in a healthy walk and access friendly, local services and brands more easily than ever before.

Attracting more businesses to the area also makes the City of Cedar Hill more appealing, making this already thriving area even more of a draw for potential shoppers.

As more brands and organizations take advantage of Cedar Hill’s prime location, diverse customer base and unique advantages, more jobs will be created in the area, resulting in additional commerce and a boost to the local economy. In turn, businesses will be able to access a broad range of talent, as workers can more easily arrive in town from surrounding suburbs and are attracted to the benefits of living in this thriving community.

Reducing traffic helps cut down on carbon emissions, allowing for a greener place to live, work and play for all, one of the long-term goals of the City of Cedar Hill. By dramatically reducing the amount of traffic in the area at peak times (work arrival, lunch, etc.), Cedar Hill becomes more appealing to walkers and visitors and more accessible to all. The coming enhancements allow the City of Cedar Hill to continue to be one of the top destinations and suburbs in Texas.

SUSTAINABILITY BECOMES A NEW FOCUS

Caroline Jansen

Sustainability has become a crucial part of public dialogue worldwide. In 2018, the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released a study estimating that there are a mere 12 years left to avoid some of the most disastrous impacts of climate change.

Retail is taking note.

In 2018, a number of companies expanded sustainability efforts, with outdoor and sporting companies leading the way. In April of last year, REI announced efforts to enforce sustainability standards for its 1,000 vendors.

The company also furthered investments to ‘rewild’ five American cities and expanded its gear rental program.

The year also saw North Face launch its Renewed line, a collection of damaged and refurbished items to further waste reduction.

A sustainability reality check came last year when it was revealed that Burberry burned and destroyed items it didn’t sell. A forceful public backlash led to a shift 28

in internal policies, with the luxury company vowing to increase efforts to reuse, repair, and recycle products.

But, more has to be done, and accountability is coming from an unlikely source: the UN, which launched the Fashion Industry Charter for Climate Action. The group’s mission to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050 has gained support from brands including Adidas, Gap, Target and H&M. “We know that climate change is already introducing risks and uncertainty with implications for businesses,” said a spokesperson for UN Climate Change, Global Climate Action in an email interview with Retail Dive. “Fashion is sensitive to consumer demands [that] are increasingly not only becoming environmentally conscious but also environmentally responsible.”

Although apparel represents only one sector of the retail market, the UN initiative illustrates how crucial collaboration is if the larger industry is to create meaningful change. “UN Climate Change has convened fashion stakeholders into a dialogue to enhance collaboration and catalyze efforts to collectively identify and address barriers to climate action,” said the spokesperson.

RETAIL AS A SERVICE TO EXPAND THIS YEAR

expensive leases as they benefit from physical store space, and consumers reap the rewards of a more robust in-store venture.

More retailers are also embracing the retail as a service concept, which Stephens defines as “hosting brands in a space that is curating that space in a very particular way, employing great design, creating great online content, providing staffing, merchandising and providing great analytics.”

RETAILERS GLEAN LESSONS FROM DTC SUCCESS STORIES

Retailers are exploring options to create a more personalized experience for consumers, and for good reason. Accenture and the Retail Industry Leaders Association released data earlier this year that indicated more consumers than ever want retailers to personalize their shopping experiences. Sixty-three percent of consumers surveyed indicated that they were interested in personalized recommendations, while 64% revealed they were willing to share personal data in exchange for benefits like loyalty points and automatic credits for coupons.

It’s beginning to dawn on retailers that personalization is more than just emails targeted to customers Some companies are now employing technologies to streamline purchasing channels. Walmart recently equipped employees with an in-store app to allow customers to order and pay for items from the retailer’s website while in the physical store.

“If Walmart is really investing in anything, it’s investing in converting its customers to online customers because I think it recognizes that it’s just ultimately going to be a more efficient model for them,” Retail Prophet CEO and Founder Doug Stephens told Retail Dive last month.

“They’re trying to convert consumers at the shelf …

Clearly there’s this recognition that this is the model that they want to move to.”

2018 also saw efforts to expand the customer shopping experience by introducing marketplaces within physical spaces, including The Market @ Macy’s, as a means to bring different, curated brands under the larger umbrella of an established retail enterprise. The partnership works for all parties involved: retailers and malls gain merchandise diversity, the smaller companies can avoid 30

The rise of e-commerce has ushered in several waves of digitally native, direct-to-consumer (DTC) businesses.

Building off the early success of once pure-players like Bonobos in men’s apparel and Warby Parker in eyewear, DTC brands have now sprouted up as disruptors in nearly every category, including Casper in mattresses, Away in luggage, Glossier in beauty and Allbirds in footwear.

E-commerce and increased venture capital investments have allowed more of these kinds of businesses than ever to get off the ground. And social media has helped these digitally native brands quickly build a loyal following. But as they’ve scaled, brick-and-mortar stores have become a necessity for growth. Brands within the category are slated to open nearly 850 physical stores over the next five years, according to a report on over

Amazon continues to grow its market share, stores are still a major competitive advantage. Target, for one, has credited stores with fueling its digital growth and many big-box and department store retailers are pursuing plans that aim to smooth out the link between online and offline. Learning from DTC brands is just one way to do that.

THE RETAIL LANDSCAPE WILL BE REARRANGED While 2017’s “retail apocalypse” pretty much fizzled in 2018, plenty of stores did close last year. Downsizing from the likes of J.C. Penney, plus the bankruptcies of Toys R Us and Sears, left thousands of locations empty. The brick-and-mortar shrink, however, may have “bottomed out,” according to a note from Wells Fargo analysts Jeffrey Donnelly and Tamara Fique emailed to Retail Dive. “[S]tore closure activity feels like it has peaked,” they wrote. “[P]hysical retailers are fighting back by reinvesting in their stores and some are curtailing store closures ... retail landlords have arguably done more than any other property segment to prune the dead wood – properties and tenants – from their portfolios” and investing in “higher growth retail and mixed-use projects.”

“Mixed use” tends to mean “less retail,” but, while many big box stores are joining mall anchors in a disappearing act, dollar stores and off-pricers are expanding, belying the notion that Amazon in particular or e-commerce in general inevitably decimates physical retail.

Those locations, like many renovated and new stores from legacy retailers like Target, are usually smaller and more urban than those that Courtesy: www.clippingpathoffice.com have dominated the American retail landscape for decades.

RETAIL TRENDS TO WATCH IN 2019

SHOPPING VIA TECH GETS MORE SOPHISTICATED 2018 was a year of tech and retail experimentation.

Amazon Go launched and quickly expanded, 45% of purchases were completed via smartphone and companies like 7-Eleven began accepting different payment systems.

BANKRUPTCIES EXPECTED TO SLOW 2018 saw several retailers declare bankruptcy. However, many analysts predict the number of bankruptcies may ease up in the year ahead.

“They will slow if for no other reason than a lot of the most troubled retailers have already filed bankruptcy like Toys R Us, Bon-Ton, and of course Sears,” Philip Emma, a senior retail analyst with Debtwire, told Retail Dive in an email. “That said, there are a lot of variables that are new to the equation that will continue to challenge those retailers who were already facing challenges.”

The Fed recently raised interest rates in December and is expected to do so again in 2019, Emma added. “But more problematic than the macro economic factors is the continued market share gains from e-commerce sites not connected to a brick and mortar retailer.”

While there are 31 retailers on the Debtwire Retail Watchlist for December 2018, Emma said there isn’t a name that will without a doubt file bankruptcy this year.

“Pier 1 for example, has been reporting terrible results.

But, it still has a significant financial cushion. Unlike the start of 2018, there are no obvious names like Sears and Bon-Ton where you can unequivocally say when, not if, they will file.”

MAY 2019

While shopping through a smart speaker, working with a chatbot or walking out of a cashierless store may still be perceived as a novelty, retailers are getting the message that convenience is paramount when it comes to obtaining goods. Implementing the mechanics that make these actions as frictionless as possible will help determine which tech stays around for the long haul, or what will be dropped when consumer experience isn’t kept front-ofmind.

There is a symbiotic relationship between companies and consumers when it comes to tech advancement, with retailers testing and adopting methodologies when customers respond positively. That partnership is bound to grow as companies push further into understanding that in-store and online spaces are merging, with the lines increasingly blurred as to where a sale can occur.

Ashwin Ramasamy, co-founder and chief marketing officer at PipeCandy, an e-commerce market intelligence company, projects that in-car shopping is the next natural step for advancements in 2019. “An embedded smart speaker in a car is a great way to introduce shopping through smart speakers. It could be for scheduling grocery or meal kit pickups. I’d think that embedded smart speakers in cars will

unlock in-commute shopping faster than home speakers have been able to,” he said in comments emailed to Retail Dive.

THE COST OF E-COMMERCE WILL FORCE A RECKONING For years, surging growth among digital pure-players (above all Amazon) left many legacy retailers unsure of how to proceed, but e-commerce has mostly morphed into just another way to sell to customers.

Exhibit A is Walmart, which stoked its digital sales some 39.4% in 2018 — a stark turnabout for a brickand-mortar stalwart that still dots the American landscape with thousands of stores.

But for any retailer selling online, some e-chickens may come home to roost as the new year progresses.

Retailers have yet to grapple with the dispiriting reality that returns are natural but, for retailers, an expensive aspect of online consumerism. In fact, analyst Natalie Berg, founder at NBK Retail, told Retail Dive that the problem is a “ticking time bomb” for retailers this year.

It’s not just returns, however. Most online shoppers expect, or at least give their highest loyalty to, retailers that offer free shipping and free returns. Amazon could arguably be blamed for helping set that expectation.

But, while it’s not immune to the problem, the e-commerce giant is managing its massive shipping costs by establishing its own network and shifting fulfillment costs onto its marketplace — two moves most retailers can’t make.

Already last year some analysts downgraded their profit expectations of retailers in light of the digital strain on margins, and those concerns look to be continuing, with end-of-year retail stocks remaining below even the shaky wider market. When it comes to e-commerce, 2019 is poised to be a time of reckoning.

David Hagy Texas Central Houston Station for High Speed Rail Connecting Houston and Dallas

EAST RIVER

● East River-Mixed use development by the owners of City Centre east of the CBD on Buffalo Bayou; equal to 150 CBD blocks

Comments by the developers on the complexities of planning a forprofit development which may take thirty years to complete:

● Houston Station-multi-modal transport hub designed for seamless movement of high speed train passengers into and out of the City; the bus rapid transit connector to Uptown Houston and the transit centers at either end presently being built is a ‘gift’ to the high speed train; different ways to access the CBD from Houston Station are under discussion with the City and METRO

● City of Houston planning commission and development guidelines exist for the past and present and they must be modified for the future-this takes time to bring officials around to new ideas; fortunately our Houston officials are open to growth and change

RENDERING OF HOUS TON STATION Courtesy: Texas Central Partners

● Development must take into account the future lessening need for parking structures and how to re-purpose currently required parking space in the future once privately owned automobiles are less prevalent ● Houston is too spread out to be able to install a comprehensive public transport system-the distances and costs are too great-so we must rely on services like Lyft and Uber as we reduce our dependence on the automobile ● We need to make the leap from adaptive vision to true innovation, which involves imagining now something which does not exist and taking the risk that it is the right choice-difficult in a for profit development with investors who have shorter timelines than 18-30 years-financial risk management is paramount in futuristic developments ● We need to remember that Houston has a huge reputation for innovation and technology all over the Americas, and what we do here will show leadership to other great cities in North, South, and Central America ● High speed rail between Houston and Dallas was chosen after studying 90 city pairs in the U.S.-the choice was entirely data-driven-there are 16 million annual trips between Houston and Dallas, and the Houston Station is located convenient to those travelers: Energy Corridor, Uptown Houston, and the CBD…more convenient than Hobby or IAH. “Dallas and Houston will become suburbs of each other with the 90 minute train trip”

MAY 2019

● Timing of implementation of projects like East River is important; market cycles can hit at the ‘wrong time’; planning financial pro formas is difficult beyond 36 months because leasing demand, absorption rates, interest rates and other variables must be estimated and returns projected; East River will be implemented in phases with the first one being 26 acres
