The DFW industrial market continues to be one of the strongest industrial markets in the country and a top four choice for national logistics distribution. Despite CoStar reporting 1Q 2018 absorption of only 1.4 million square feet, the overall industrial market vacancy declined from 6.7% to 6.2%. Accordingly, actual absorption should have been reported at approximately 3.5 million square feet. (variations may be attributed to time of reporting) Q1 2018 deliveries totaled 2.9 million SF, substantially less than previous quarters. Between build-to-suits and speculative development, the market has approximately 24 million SF under construction. This activity encompasses the sub markets of North Fort Worth, South Dallas, GSW, Northwest Dallas, Northeast Dallas and DFW Airport. South Dallas notably accounts for approximately 7.2 million square feet of the total construction activity. Albeit a healthy overall market at 6.2% vacancy, investment capital should observe isolated submarket trends whereby the current construction / absorption ratio is favoring new construction outpacing net absorption. However, given the lack of available portfolio dispositions, speculative development will likely remain strong in the coming year for the DFW market as capital sources continue to accept leasing risk to obtain lower basis positions and build to a yield rather than competing for inferior product with record low cap rates. The majority of submarkets for 2018 should remain in single digit vacancy rates. However, submarkets such as South Dallas and GSW are reporting double digit vacancy in bulk warehouse as new construction has outpaced net absorption. Rental rates are stabilized under favorable conditions although concessions are more prominent from new development projects. Dallas is one of the top four regional distribution hubs in the country, yet the supply / demand equilibrium may have been exceeded in certain submarkets requiring a tapering of select new construction.
HLC DFW
INDUSTRIAL TRENDS & TRANSACTIONS TRENDS & TRANSACTIONS Industrial product continues to be in high demand for institutional investment including foreign sources of capital seeking to invest in the US economy. Speculative development remains at a historical peak due to the lack of acquisition opportunities and capital sources seeking alternative basis positions to “retail” pricing resulting from high demand and historically low cap rates. Due to continued population growth and consumer demand, E-commerce groups and third-party logistics providers continue to be a driving force in the demand of bulk warehouse for fulfillment centers. Rental abatement has been re-established as a norm in the market as Landlords 1) seek to maximize property valuations through face rate and rent growth 2) second generation space seeks to remain competitive with new development and 3) new development under construction seeks to secure a tenant base prior to additional projects breaking ground. Since 2010, depending on the size of the transaction, rental rates have increased 20%-30% with 2%-4% annual escalations accepted by the market. However, leases that have previously experienced substantive rent increases (leases signed in 2015) may have stabilized base rents albeit still subject to annualized rent increases upon expiration.

SUBMARKET INTELLIGENCE GREAT SOUTHWEST/ARLINGTON
14 YEARS
HLC OUTLOOK
CRE EXPERIENCE
The Great Southwest submarket consists of 105 million SF, and per CoStar reporting experienced negative absorption of 285,498 SF during the first quarter of 2018. Leasing activity and velocity were strong during Q1 2018 with 1.67 million SF of leasing activity. Significant GSW leases contributing to the leasing activity include Tellworks Communications (722K SF), Parish Hare Electric Supply (232K SF), and Professional Packaging (349K SF). GSW reported no new completions of the 3.2 million SF of product currently under construction. Despite CoStar reporting negative absorption, the Q1 2018 vacancy rate stayed unchanged versus Q4 2017 at a relatively healthy 8.7%. As we head into 2018, we expect this vacancy rate to return to lower levels as tenants absorb additional product and new development begins to taper.

SUBMARKET INTELLIGENCE DFW AIRPORT
HLC OUTLOOK
25+ YEARS
The DFW Airport market vacancy rate increased slightly over the past quarter from 5.5% to 6.0%. The increase in vacancy rate is coupled with (60,342) SF of absorption through Q1 2018. These numbers can be attributed to development remaining strong with approximately 3.5 million SF under construction. Stream, Bandera, Copeland Commercial, Prologis, DCT and Perot Development are the developers with the 3.5 million under construction. Trammell Crow Company has 144 acres in Passport Park with two buildings totaling 1.8 million square feet with dirt work to begin at the start of the 3rd quarter. Rental rates have remained strong ranging from $3.85 -$8.00 for bulk distribution and shallow bay product. Rental abatements range from 2 months to 7 months depending on renewal versus new speculative deals and the size of the lease transaction. Tenant Improvements costs remain high because of continued increases in construction costs. DFW Airport market continues to be one of the top three markets in the Metroplex and the new product being delivered will perform well.

SUBMARKET INTELLIGENCE NORTHEAST & EAST DALLAS
11+ YEARS
HLC OUTLOOK
CRE EXPERIENCE
The Northeast and East Dallas submarkets continued to perform steadily with another consecutive quarter of positive absorption. We continue to see strong activity and have seen rates push past historical levels, and they continue to gradually increase. Spec warehouse and newer second-generation space between 100–200,000 SF is now being quoted between $4.05– $4.75 NNN. Construction has increased considerably over the last 12 months with more announcements on the way. Activity remains strong throughout the market as Landlords of new construction are consistently putting out proposals during the early phases of construction. We expect concessions to remain low and rates to steadily increase throughout these markets.

CRE EXPERIENCE
For the first quarter of 2018, Northwest Dallas continued to prove to be one of the strongest submarkets in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex. The submarket posted a 4.5% vacancy rate, which is near the same rate as the end of year 2017 (4.4%). Billingsley recently completed their four building development at Mercer Business Park which are now 100% occupied. Building Four at Prologis’ Valwood Corporate Park will be completed in Q2 this year, and Core5 recently broke ground on Valwood Crossings at Belt Line and Luna. Those two projects are the development highlights currently under construction in Northwest Dallas. Panattoni will be breaking ground on their 150,000 SF spec facility in May. Rates have continued to increase due to the market tightening as spaces between 50–150,000 SF are diminishing, which is the primary size range in Valwood. All indicators point to the market remaining strong throughout 2018.

SUBMARKET INTELLIGENCE SOUTH DALLAS
30+ YEARS
HLC OUTLOOK
CRE EXPERIENCE
South Dallas Industrial submarket as surveyed is 113M SF and is now 11.1% vacant which is 1.1% higher than reported in 4Q 2017. New construction continues outpacing absorption. South Dallas reported net absorption of 259,300 SF in 1Q 2018. New construction was mitigated with 1M SF of new transactions from Hollander Sleep Products (322K SF), Best Inc. (205K SF), Sunrise Wood Designs (135K SF), Solstice Sleep (94K SF), Walmart (150K SF) iGPS Pallet (64K SF) and ABC Supply (39K SF). In 1Q 2018 South Dallas delivered 1.7M SF of new bulk warehouse. South Dallas still has 2.2M SF remaining under construction. As expected, the southern corridors along I-20, I-35, and I-45 will continue to produce new opportunities for development but, the equilibrium needle between supply and demand is going to remain volatile as opportunity encounters overbuilding.

SUBMARKET INTELLIGENCE SOUTH STEMMONS
7+ YEARS
HLC OUTLOOK
CRE EXPERIENCE
At the end of Q1 2018, the South Stemmons industrial submarket posted a 2.6% vacancy rate and continues to be one of the strongest performing submarkets in Dallas. There is a strong amount of leasing activity throughout the submarket for tenants between 10–50,000 SF. Although absorption for Q1 totaled a negative 200,000 SF, this is due to tenants relocating from the Design District with rates continuing to rise quickly in that area. The negative absorption number is expected to reverse in 2018 due to the lack of development sites in the submarket. As 2018 begins, rental rates are expected to increase as the submarket becomes tighter and tenants are relocating north on I-35 from the spike in rental rates in the Design District. Since 2013, rents in the submarket have increased 30% for space under 50,000 SF. This is a key statistic as this size encompasses the majority of spaces in the submarket. Rental rates for 50,000 SF deals have increased into the high $3/SF range and rates for 10,000 SF are now reaching $5.00/SF start rates. 20–25,000 SF are creeping up into the low $4’s. This trend is expected to continue throughout 2018.

SUBMARKET INTELLIGENCE NORTH FORT WORTH

HLC OUTLOOK
CRE EXPERIENCE
The North Fort Worth industrial submarket maintained positive momentum through the first three months of 2018 by posting a Q1 vacancy of 4.3%, down slightly from the 4.9% posted at year-end 2017. The Q1 net absorption figure of 1,372,623 SF outpaced Q4 2017 by nearly 100,000 SF, which highlights the strength of the North Fort Worth market. This also confirms developer confidence as North Fort Worth currently has more than 4.5 million SF of spec developments under construction.

Market Director drohde@hlfortworth.com 817.710.7058
Absorption
vs. Prev. Qtr
Similar to the 2017 calendar year, the most vibrant sector in North Fort Worth was in bulk warehousing. Nearly 98% of the overall, Q1 net absorption in North Fort Worth came from this sector alone. The overall vacancy rate has hit a near 10-year low coming in at 4.3% (only being surpassed by Q1 & Q2 of 2014 when the market had 17 million less SF than YTD.) As projects such as 35 Eagle, Synergy Crossing, Fossil Creek Crossing, and Park 820 come to completion, expect to see continued positive absorption by bulk distribution users that prefer the transit amenities North Fort Worth and Alliance have to offer.

SUBMARKET INTELLIGENCE SOUTH FORT WORTH
16+ YEARS
HLC OUTLOOK
CRE EXPERIENCE
The South Fort Worth industrial submarket posted a vacancy of 5.4%. This is down from 5.8% in Q4 2017. As of Q1 2018, there is upwards of 4.7 million SF of proposed industrial development, of which over 1 million SF is currently under construction. However, we don’t expect the remainder of the 3.7 million SF to hit at once as Majestic, Mereken Land, Carter Foundation, Hillwood, and TCRG control most of the developable tracts. The one caveat is Hunt Southwest, who is pad-ready for a 300K SF freezer cooler building targeting food users. Current lack of supply and increasing demand doesn’t appear to be slowing down, thus fueling a fire under developers and institutional property owners alike to enter the submarket. This is highlighted by South Fort Worth’s Q1 2018 leasing activity of 540,780 SF – a figure that is up significantly from last year’s Q1 activity of 179,857 SF.

Shallow Bay product remains very strong and in high demand posting a vacancy rate of 1.9% down from 2.3% in the fourth quarter. This marks the lowest of all product types in the South Fort Worth submarket as well as the lowest in all other DFW submarkets with the exception of south Dallas. Due to the lack of supply we expect this figure to stay steady until the beginning of 2019 when new shallow bay projects are slated to deliver.
