  • Boston Office Market Report
    BOSTON OFFICE MARKET REPORT THIRD QUARTER 2017 FLAT ABSORPTION AMIDST MOVING PIECES As the nation’s 10th largest metro and population growth exceeding San Francisco, New York and Los Angeles, Boston has cemented its status as one of the premier Global Markets as a “must have” location. Not surprisingly, rumors surrounding Amazon’s HQ2 are running rampant with many local professionals thinking the Hub stands an excellent chance to land the second behemoth headquarters for the booming Amazon. In addition to the buzz surrounding the potential Amazon expansion, the local market remained extremely active with several large chips announcing relocations this quarter. Rental rents have responded favorably with the average rate eclipsing $55.26 per square foot. With a combined vacancy rate at 7.0% across Downtown’s eight distinct submarkets, the overall market has remained at its lowest levels since the dot-com boom of the early 2000’s. Firmly rooted in education, technology and life sciences, the region’s diverse economic base has submitted strong job growth through increased recruitment and skilled labor retention from the area’s leading universities and institutions. Looking forward, expect sound market conditions and a diversified economy to guide the greater Boston commercial real estate market to a strong performance over the next several years. # 4.2% # 4.4% # 2.9% 4th AUGUST AUGUST ANNUAL HIGHEST GDP MASSACHUSETTS NATIONAL WAGE GROWTH PER CAPITA UNEMPLOYMENT UNEMPLOYMENT NATIONALLY MARKET TRENDS CLASS A - ASKING RATE BOSTON 10TH LARGEST

  • Boston Office Market Report
    BOSTON OFFICE MARKET REPORT FIRST QUARTER 2019 HOT START TO THE NEW YEAR FOR BOSTON Setting the tone for 2019, the office market has seen an increase in asking rates and decline in vacancy, both of which are likely to remain the trend through the year with limited availability projected for 2019. Despite limited availability projected for the remainder of 2019, the development pipeline in Boston will bring relief to the tight market in the years to follow. The One Congress Tower, a one million square foot office tower expected to break ground this summer, is one of the major developments that will bring new space to the market when it opens in 2023. The tower has already locked down a major tenant in State Street who will be relocating from their longtime home at One Lincoln Street. On the flip side of that equation, WeWork will backfill a significant portion of State Street’s space at One Lincoln after signing their largest lease yet in Boston at the former financial services giant’s headquarters. On a macro level, the region's demographics and economy have remained solid helping to support and promote Boston's recent expansion. Firmly rooted in education, technology and life sciences, Boston's diverse economic base has submitted strong job growth through increased recruitment and skilled labor retention from the area’s leading universities and institutions. Looking forward, expect durable market conditions and a diversified economy to guide the region's commercial real estate market to a strong performance over the next few years. 3.0% # 3.8% $12B #1 FEBRUARY FEBRUARY MASSACHUSETTS NATIONALLY MASSACHUSETTS NATIONAL ANNUAL (2018) R&D FUNDING UNEMPLOYMENT UNEMPLOYMENT VC FUNDING PER CAPITA CLASS A MARKET ASKING RATE VS.

    One Lincoln Street (A) After more than six months of seemingly daily e-mails, conference calls, and presentations, John Hynes still couldn’t believe what he was hearing on the other end of the phone from Frank Mattson, a Real Estate Investment Officer for Midwest State Teachers Retirement System (“STRS”). “Wait a minute. I know it looks like a good deal. But John, I’ve tried to be clear from the start: we’re a public pension fund. Our policies are we only invest in fully entitled land and, even then, we don’t build on spec. We need at least 25% pre-leasing. And I still want to talk to you about that residual profit split. All I can say right now is get me those revised unlevered cash flows and maybe I can bring the issues up at the Investment Committee meeting this week. But don’t get too optimistic – we learned our lesson the last go-round, and it wasn’t pretty. I’ve got to get home for dinner or my kids are going to forget my name. I’ll be in early tomorrow. Thanks, partner.” “O.K. then, Frank, I guess we’ll talk in the morning. Bye.” As he released the call from his speaker phone, John Hynes muttered angrily: “Spare me that partner crap, please! Partners take risks.” John knew his discussions with Frank needed to evolve. He just worried that he didn’t have much time. Context John B.
