It is the highest since 2008, and only $0.09/sf off the record. > The most significant deliveries to occur in 2015 were Cox Communications 578,000 sq. ft. office tower in Central Perimeter and Porsche s 200,000 sq. ft. North American headquarters facility at the airport in South Atlanta. > For the coming year, Atlanta s office market should see similar levels of absorption and leasing activity as experienced over the past couple of years. Atlanta Office Market Following yet another quarter with over 1 million square feet of office absorbed, Atlanta finished the year with its highest annual absorption total since 2000. A net total of 4.8 million square feet was occupied in 2015. This activity combined with the few number of deliveries taking place during the year has resulted in the lowest overall office vacancy rate in Atlanta in fifteen years. 2015 was filled with a number of significant storylines. The first to mark the year was the announcement by Mercedes-Benz to relocate its North American headquarters from New Jersey to Central Perimeter. The German luxury automaker revealed its plans to invest around $100 million in an office building totaling approximately 250,000 square feet on a 12-acre parcel in the submarket, just west of Georgia 400. The move is expected to bring 1,000 jobs to the area and is being touted as the biggest economic win for Atlanta since UPS relocated to Market Indicators Relative to prior period Summary Statistics Atlanta Office Market Market Class A Class B Vacancy Rate 13.5% 12.4% 15.2% Change From Q3 2015-0.5% -0.6% -0.3% Absorption YTD (Thousands Square Feet) Construction Deliveries YTD (Thousands Square Feet) Under Construction (Millions Square Feet) Asking Rents Per Square Foot Per Year Q4 2015 Q1 2016* NET ABSORPTION - CONSTRUCTION RENTAL RATE CAP RATES - *Projected 4,828 3,529 1,118 912 778 134 1.7 1.6 0.1 Average Quoted $21.45 $25.63 $17.36 Change From Q3 2015 1.4% 0.8% 1.9% Year-Over-Year Change 6.9% 7.1% 5.8%
Atlanta Office Market (continued) the area in 1991. Construction of the headquarters should begin in the first half of 2016. The Cumberland/Galleria area also received much attention throughout the year. In addition to the ongoing construction of the new Atlanta Braves stadium, the submarket saw a number of noteworthy transactions in 2015; the most prominent being Comcast which announced a partnership with the Atlanta Braves to anchor a nine-story office building at the new ballpark and also create a multimillion dollar network throughout the entire development, making it the most connected in the nation. The office building will contain between 250,000-300,000 square feet and house around 1,000 of Comcasts employees. Also taking place in the submarket, Synovus agreed to anchor 100,000 square feet in a new office building to be constructed by TPA Realty Group; RaceTrac Petroleum chose a new office location of 114,000 square feet at Galleria Office Park; and Delta Community Credit Union, Holder Construction, and Bennett Thrasher all pre-leased space at Riverwood 200 which recently broke ground and is the Cumberland/ Galleria area s first new office building to begin construction in 15 years. As it seems, the Central Perimeter and Northwest Atlanta submarkets stole the show this year; however, the office market was active throughout the region. In total, four submarkets saw over 800,000 square feet of office space absorbed in 2015; and every submarket, with the exception of Northeast Atlanta, was positive. Midtown and North Fulton saw the greatest change in their office vacancy rates, decreasing 3.3% and 3.1% respectively from last year. Meanwhile, Buckhead and Downtown saw the largest increase in their average rental rates, increasing 13% and 17% respectively.

Vacancy & Availability > Over the course of the year, Atlanta s office vacancy rate declined almost 200 basis points. At 13.5%, this is the lowest it has been since 2000. > Class A vacancy is down 2.5% from this time last year. Since its peak high in 2010, the Class A vacancy rate has dropped 7.4%. This amounts to almost 7.8 million square feet of vacant office space filled during this time. > Although large blocks of availability have been filling up over the past couple of years, there remains ample opportunities for prospects currently scouting office space. > Looking ahead, the downward trend in vacancy will continue in Atlanta. Buckhead and North Fulton could likely see their overall vacancy rates drop below 10% next year. Absorption & Leasing Activity > Atlanta office absorption totaled 4.8 million square feet in 2015. This is the highest annual total since 2000. > The largest occupancies in the year were: Cox Communications (578,000 SF); Fiserv (376,000 SF); Home Depot (200,000+ SF); and Porsche (200,000 SF). > Midtown, Central Perimeter, North Fulton and Northwest Atlanta each saw over 800,000 square feet of space absorbed in 2015. > Office leasing finished the year at a moderate level compared to previous years. The back end of 2015 saw somewhat of a lull in activity. Cumberland/Galleria experienced the highest amount of activity throughout the year as the new Atlanta Braves stadium has proved to be a catalyst to attracting new tenants to this particular area. > Heading into the new year, absorption and leasing should remain consistent to recent activity, though a few large blocks of space are expected to hit the market in 2016.

Construction > There were no significant multitenanted office buildings delivered this year. The largest deliveries to occur were Cox Communications 578,000 sq. ft. build-to-suit and Porsche s new North American headquarters building of 200,000 sq. ft. at the Airport. > The lack of new supply in the office market is unfamiliar to Atlanta. In past cycles, new developments were numerous and swift. Rising construction costs, the inability to land anchor tenants, and the more prudent nature of the market have limited current construction activity. > Atlanta s office market is certain to see more construction starts in 2016. Construction Activity (100,000 SF+) Investment Activity > Annual investment volume for Atlanta office buildings reached its highest level in eight years totaling over $4.5 billion. > Buckhead, Atlanta s most desirable investment market, saw over $1 billion of office space transacted this year. > The largest investment sale of 2015 was Concourse Corporate Ctr. in Central Perimeter. The office park traded for $489 million ($229/sf). This is the highest priced transaction ever recorded for an Atlanta office property. > Investors have taken notice of Atlanta s overall market fundamentals and will continue to take advantage of the upside potential of rental rates in 2016.

With an average of 3.3 million square feet of space absorbed annually over the past 4 years, it will be another remarkable year of growth in the office market should occupancy levels increase by the same amount in 2016. A number of local economists predict job growth in Atlanta to remain moderately steady over the next couple of years with the region seeing positive activity continue from the corporate sector. The underlying transformation of Atlanta into a technology hub will also result in more gains from the information/ technology sector. Despite some recent big name losses to other markets, Atlanta will remain atop many corporate relocation lists. A few headwinds are expected next year including large vacancies from Coca-Cola, Newell-Rubbermaid and Fiserv; however, the blocks of availability resulting from these move-outs will provide large prospects in the market more options to choose. The supply/demand fundamentals which have shaped the extraordinary rental rate growth in the market, along with the decline in vacancy, will finally lead to new spec development activity; albeit limited. Additionally, a number of anchored projects are expected to begin next year as well. In total, Atlanta should see almost 3 million square feet of office space break ground in 2016. Both Moody s and PwC see Atlanta s office market entering into expansion territory over the next couple of years. This will maintain the exceptional growth taking place and provide the local commercial real estate community with continued optimism. DEFINITIONS Absorption (Net)-The net change in occupied space over a given period of time, calculated by summing all the positive changes in occupancy and subtracting all the negative changes in occupancy. Vacancy Rate-A percentage of the total amount of physically vacant space divided by the total amount of existing inventory. Vacant Space-Space that is not currently occupied by a tenant, regardless of any lease obligation on the space. Sublease Space-Space that has been leased by a tenant and is being offered for lease back to the market by the tenant with the lease obligation. Deliveries-Buildings that complete construction during a specified period of time. A certificate of occupancy must have been issued for the property for it to be considered delivered. Leasing Activity-The volume of square footage that is committed to and signed for under a lease obligation for a specific building or market in a given period of time. It includes direct leases, subleases and renewals of existing leases. It also includes any pre-leasing activity for buildings under construction or planned. Build-to-Suit-A term describing property that was developed specifi cally for a certain tenant to occupy. Can be either leased or owned by the tenant.
