Multi-Family Use

Historically low vacancy rates, an increase of gentrification in the submarket, and an average household income over $100,000 support apartment, student housing, or condo development.

APARTMENT MARKET OVERVIEW The downtown apartment market has enjoyed a robust uptick and is poised for further future growth.

In 2014 the Chicago-area market saw huge demand for apartments, which has remained stable in 2015. Vacancy rates at the end of Q2 2015 fell to 3.8%, less than the 5.0% rate generally considered ideal for apartment markets. According to Reis, “Chicago vacancy has tended to track the national average while remaining slightly lower.” This comment is supported by 17 consecutive quarters of vacancy in the 95% to 96% range.

Reduced vacancy and higher rents corroborate the stability of the Chicago apartment sector. While the number of occupied apartment units increased this quarter, low vacancy has continued to complicate renter’s search for affordable apartments in desirable neighborhoods. Lower vacancy coupled with aggressive rent growth substantiate historically strong demand for downtown apartments. Absorption is expected to remain strong as residents choose the convenience and mobility of urban living in the desirable downtown market.

DEVELOPMENT APARTMENT VACANCY TRENDS Future demand for downtown housing looks bright as empty nesters move to the conveniences of 9% urban living, young professionals continue to set up 8% residences in downtown neighborhoods, and many 7% young families make the decision to build a life in 6% the city instead of making the move to the suburbs. 5% All of these factors continue to promote downtown 4% 3%

residential development as there continues to be a Vacancy Average shortage of rental product in Downtown Chicago 2% submarkets and as current market metrics support 1% 0% new apartment deliveries. Demand is projected to ‘97 ‘98 ‘99 ‘00 ‘01 ‘02 ‘03 ‘04 ‘05 ‘06 ‘07 ‘08 ‘09 ‘10 ‘11 ‘12 ‘13 ‘14 ‘15 ‘16 continue to outpace supply as the migration of Chicago Midwestern US US employment to downtown Chicago remains and the SOURCE: Reis, Inc. economy continues to thrive.

Demand for downtown apartments is historically strong, with record positive absorption ranging from 7,300 to 10,300 units in the past 4 quarters. Absorption is expected to remain strong as residents choose the convenience and mobility of apartment living in the desirable downtown market.
