Is The Window of

Opportunity Closing?At the halfway point, 2011 is looking like a mixed year for the Washington

Metropolitan area, with vacancies and rental rates first increasing and then

dropping slightly as the optimism of the new year gave way to political and

economic concerns. One area of significant concern, especially for urban-

 focused tenants, is Washington, DC’s high unemployment rate, standing at

10.2 percent as compared to the Metro Area’s 5.7 percent rate and the nation’s

8.7 percent.

Second quarter 2011 represented a benchmarking change in our methodology

 for the UGL Services Washington, DC office. The changes, which allowed

us to expand to a broader data set, is reflected in this quarter’s results. One

important addition to this new data is that of government owned and leased

buildings. Given the government’s significant presence in Northern Virginia,

Suburban Maryland, and especially Washington, DC, it is important to account

 for its impact on the commercial real estate market. This is clearly evident when

comparing 2010 with YTD 2011. With the government rethinking their use of

space and consolidating, 2011 looks to show significantly less absorption as

opposed to 2010, where the government accounted for a large majority of

the absorption.

Considering our expanded data set, our results show second quarter 2011

Washington, DC vacancy to be almost 300 basis points (bps) lower than

the Metro area which stands at 12.6 percent and almost $11 per square foot

rental rate premium over the Metro area, at $43.14. While the Washington, DC

shows strength over the Metro area, with decreasing vacancy, tenants should

be prepared to see rental rates increase, especially if vacancy continues to

decrease as expected. With slightly more than $2 million in troubled assets

and trades occurring near record levels in Washington, DC, the local market

is showing solid signs of recovery and tenants should be aware that time may

be running out to take advantage of the market.

THE ECONOMY. Nationally,

unemployment in May decreased year

over year from 9.3 percent to 8.7

percent, a sign of national economic

growth. However, Washington DC’s

year over year change was not as

promising, rising from 9.4 percent

to 10.2 percent. This is a reflection,

of the government’s downsizing and

reductions in staff.

The addition of only 54,000 jobs

nationally in May —a staggering

178,000 jobs behind April— shows

that the economy, while improving over

the long run, has yet to find its legs

with weighing concerns of government

budget cuts, the ongoing debate over

the debt ceiling, slumping stocks, and

a sluggish housing market. However, in

May, when local governments slashed

29,000 jobs, growing sectors likeprofessional and business services

and health care added 44,000 and

17,000, jobs respectively. Overall, the

private sector gained 83,000 jobs in

May, making it the 14th straight month

 for private sector employment growth.

With the Government being the primary

employer in Washington, DC, there

is growing concern regarding the

potential of significant budgets cuts

that would result in further reductions

in government employment. Allaying

this fear is the reality that the growing

professional and business services

sector is the second largest employment

sector in Washington, DC. Furthermore,

with many government agencies unable

to fulfill their obligations with limited

staff, private contractors will fill manyof those voids and most likely expand

their employee base to do so.

VACANCY. Vacancy in Washington

DC continues to decrease as it has

steadily since its peak a year ago.

Through the recession, employers were

attracted to Washington, DC’s stability

and strong employee and consumer

base. This, along with limited deliveries,

has driven the ongoing decrease invacancy we’ve seen. The increase in

availability shown through our revised

data may show the significant amount

of space currently occupied by the

government that has yet to be vacated.

The Northern Virginia market continues

to improve steadily with vacancies

decreasing since a year ago, while

Suburban Maryland’s vacancy has

UNEMPLOYMENT.

The U.S. Bureau of Labor 

 Statistics reports that as of M

the Washington,DC is trailingthe nation by 150 bps. While

 both Maryland and Virginia

exhibited a year over year dro

 in unemployment, Washingto

 DC has seen an increase.

Virginia showed the only 

 positive non-farm employme

DC, there is a $14 Per square foot

difference between Class A and

Class C and a $13 Per square foot

gap between Class A and Class B. This

arbitrage opportunity is something

that building owners and investors

can take advantage of as the market

exhibits strength and growth potential

in the coming year. Should vacancy

continue to decrease as expected,

this gap will more than likely expand

 further, providing even more incentive

to upgrade. Many owners have already

begun this process with renovations

already underway at properties like

1200 New Hampshire Ave NW and

the proposed renovation/expansionof properties like 1140 and 1146 19th

Street, Federal Office Building 8, and

2100 M Street NW.

Northern Virginia and Suburban

Maryland, while garnering lower rental

rates, saw an increase in rates over last

quarter. Northern Virginia has been

seeing a gradual increase for multiple

quarters since its bottom in late 2009.

Data shows a significant increase in

Suburban Maryland’s asking rates

over 1Q, the majority of this increaseis accounted for in benchmarking

changes, our focus now being the

inner suburbs. This higher rate is a

more accurate reflection of this market.

begun to rise again. Changes from first

quarter 2011, especially in Suburban

Maryland overstate these changes,

given benchmarking differences,

however vacancy is expected to

continue to decline in Washington, DC

and Northern Virginia, while Maryland

will continue to see higher vacancy

rates.

RENTAL RATES. At the close of the

second quarter, quoted rental rates

  for the Washington, DC, Northern

Virginia, and Suburban Maryland Metro

area were at a weighted average of

$32.58 per square foot. Washington,

DC showed a premium of over $10

per sqaure footaveraging $43.14 Per

square foot while Northern Virginia

and Suburban Maryland trailed with

Metro average at $29.53 and $27.19

respectively.

The Washington, DC, in comparison

to the Northern Virginia and Suburban

Maryland markets, showed a rate

premium, it was the only of the three

to decrease from first quarter 2011.

Looking specifically at Washington, DC,

an examination of rental rates exhibits

a significant difference between

submarkets and even classes within

submarkets. Overall, in Washington,

“Long run estimates show Washington DC

 maintaining its low vacancy rate while showing

 slight rental rate growth.”

Opportunities & Challenges

LOOKING FORWARD.

With the government looking

to slim their operations, the

 resulting drop in demand will slow improvement of the

 market. However, as opposed

to more sensitive markets,

Washington, DC has the

 strength to weather a decrea

 in demand without significan

changed to rental rates.

 A slowing in the demand 

for space will also providetime for building owners

 and developers to upgrade,

 renovate, and build preparing

for a stronger 2012 and 2013.

 Additionally, Trophy and new

 amenity-filled Class A buildin

will continue to draw a

 premium and drive competit

to upgrade and improve the

 building stock.

 Recognizing the trends and 

 noting an improving building

 stock, tenants should expect 

vacancy to decrease and ren

 rates to increase as the year 

 progresses.

The big challenges in decision making

are seeing what’s coming down the line

and knowing when to jump. For building

owners and investors, investing now totake advantage of future growth should

be the plan. However, some high Per

square foot prices, lengthy entitlement

processes and aged infrastructure,

owners will need to act soon to ensure

advantageous timing.

For the time being, users continue to

have more power to be selective about

where they locate. As companies,

—especially large forward-looking

  firms— recognize a shift in office

culture brought on by a new generation

of employees the notion of “location,

location, location” becomes more

complex. It’s no longer that space users

prefer a particular part of town, now

it is a consideration of proximity to

transit and where employees want to

live, amenities for employees, and the

life employees lead outside the office.

As the economy improves and

employers look to grow and expand,

they will need more space. Havingweathered the recession and learned

 from those struggles, employer tenants

will need to be more savvy in their

space use and real estate choices. Cost

cutting will be important in not just the

acquisition of space, but also its use

as it pertains to employee retention.

Given Washington, DC’s skilled

workforce, employee retention

continues to be a priority because

of the high cost of replacement. As

employees demand more of their

employers in regards to space,

employers will need to meet these

demands and adjust their real estate

decisions as such.

The continued move from the suburbs

to more dense, transit-oriented areas,

the increasing push to sustainable

building and operation, and the

ongoing integration of technology

and services will require a more

sophisticated approach to space use

and comprehensive approach to real

estate. The opportunities currently lie

in getting ahead of the curve before

your current space doesn’t meet your

needs and rental rates have increased.

With building owners positioning for

a stronger 2012 and 2013, tenants

should be prepared for decreasing

vacancy rates and increasing rental

rates as demand ticks up and properties

are improved. So, is the window of

opportunity closing? It’s starting to

slowly close; the market is positioned

to strengthen and tenants considering

changes in their space needs should

be aware that time is running out.

Assess and Adapt.

RECENT TRADES.

Investment Properties

Commercial real estate in the nation’s

capital is poised for a significant

comeback in 2012 and 2013, and

building owners and investors arepreparing for it. Investor interest has

led to an increase in the number and

size of transactions, some high-priced

transactions reaching record prices

like the March sale of Market Square

 for $905 Per square foot.

Investors who are disappointed in the

stock and bond markets are turning to

high-yield assets in strong markets like

Washington, DC. With this increased

investor interest limited primarily to

Class A and trophy assets, owners

are fielding competitive offers and

cashing in. Class B property owners

are recognizing the recent drop in Class

B rental rates and vacancies and are

positioning to upgrade their properties,

attempting to take advantage of the

increasing in demand for Class A

properties. This is especially the case

in the Washington, DC, where the

difference between Class A and Class

B averages around $13 per square foot.

Among the many areas of improvement

the most popular are technology

infrastructure upgrades, aesthetic

improvements, and LEED or “green”advancements. With pressure

mounting from space users, political

interests, international competition,

and investors, there will be a continued

and considerable push for office

buildings to progress in their style,

use, and sustainability.

Given its dated infrastructure and

large number of historic or outdated

structures, Washington, DC is

positioned well to take advantage

of this movement and see an influx

of capital and tenants which would

lead to increases in value and overall

market strength.
