  • The Rise of Spec Suites: an Analysis of Speculative Office Spaces in the Washington Metro Area
    THOUGHT LEADERSHIP SERIES THE RISE OF SPEC SUITES: AN ANALYSIS OF SPECULATIVE OFFICE SPACES IN THE WASHINGTON METRO AREA OCTOBER 2018 MET SQUARE • WASHINGTON, DC TABLE OF CONTENTS I. The Rise of Spec Suites.................................4 II. Availability of Spec Suites in the Washington Metro Area.................................6 III. Financial Considerations: Cost Comparison of Spec Suites Versus Customized Space ............................8 IV. Implications for Owners and Tenants.........10 2 | © NEWMARK KNIGHT FRANK | RESEARCH | 2018 KEY FINDINGS » Speculative office suites—move-in-ready office spaces that are built-out and designed by the property owner in advance of a tenant signing a lease—have become increasingly popular in the Washington metro area and other markets. Notably, the number of spec suites available in the CBD and East End submarkets of the District of Columbia has more than doubled in the past 18 months. » Spec suites are beneficial for both owners and tenants as they allow owners to market space more efficiently and allow tenants to move in right away, potentially with more flexible lease terms. Tenants do not have to endure the process of securing permits and supervising a build-out. » Spec suites lease up considerably more quickly than space that is not built-out: 3.4 months on average compared with 16.5 months for customized space. » The added flexibility and shorter lease terms that come with spec suites allows owners to charge a premium, with average achieved rents 10-20% higher for spec suites than for TABLE OF CONTENTS customized space. » The build-out costs for spec suites and customized space are essentially the same, since the hard and soft costs for an owner to build a spec suite—$80-$120 per square foot in the District of Columbia and $50-$70 per square foot in the suburbs—are comparable to the average tenant improvement allowances in those markets.
