HLC OUTLOOK
The Dallas-Fort Worth industrial market ended Q3 2022 with continued momentum by reporting the 48th consecutive quarter of positive net absorption. Although the under construction figures have reached a new high watermark, the leasing activity has largely kept pace with deliveries. Rental rates are continuing to rise especially in the “Infill” submarkets as vacancy rates continue to drop to new record lows. Furthermore, with less than 30% of new construction located within the “Infill” submarkets, we expect the substantial rent growth within the city’s core to continue.
The outlying submarkets continue to grow at an unprecedented pace due to land availability, interstate connectivity, capital markets interest and consistent demand from occupiers. We expect the development figures to decrease over the next year due to recent changes from the Fed which will likely allow for rental rates to grow steadily as inventory is absorbed.
Preleasing activity is still prevalent but concerns over delivery dates have increased due to the continued material shortages and delays. Such delays have encouraged many landlords to increase the amount of spec work including office, lights and levelers in a race to provide “operational” space for incoming prospective tenants.
As we enter the final quarter of 2022, we expect the overall industrial market to continue strong as overall leasing activity in the market is still very active. We also expect DFW to outperform other parts of the country as it continues to be the biggest benefactor of large-scale relocation efforts and population growth.
MARKET OBSERVATIONS
With the recent changes in the debt markets, the
wave has slowed down. Continued tenant demand has helped counter this by giving developers confidence in increased rental rates.
Fundamentals of what make DFW appealing are unchanged.
growth, lower cost of living, pro business environment, central location and connectivity will continue to be attractive to both businesses and capital markets.
is lower than previous years, partially because CoStar does not record a pre-lease as absorption until the building is delivered and the tenant takes occupancy. We expect increased absorption numbers later

CURRENT EVENTS
Per CoStar reporting, the Great southwest (GSW) industrial submarket concluded Q3 2022 with continued momentum. At the end of Q3 2022, GSW reported positive net absorption of 306,8005 SF and posted outstanding
activity numbers of more than 5.9M SF. Additionally, GSW reported 965,945 SF of new construction completions YTD and a total of 4,348,901 SF of new projects currently under construction.
2022 vacancy rate decreased slightly to 3.0% versus 3.1% at Q2 2022. This ranks
the top four major submarkets
lowest
further into 2022, we expect the GSW market to remain one of the top performing submarkets with continued rent growth as tenant demand continues to expand across the DFW market.

The Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) Airport industrial submarket closed 2021 with an all time low vacancy rate of 3.82% which has continued to drop through Q3 2022 and currently sits at a 2.2% vacancy rate. The vacancy rate continues to decrease as the submarket has seen a strong influx of leasing for big blocks of space in Passport Park and Perot/Invesco’s 161 as well as a flurry of leasing between 100K and 400K SF suites. There is currently only one delivered building at the airport that can accommodate a 200K to 400K SF user. The rates in that size should continue to rise at a rapid pace.

Rental rates remained strong and are expected to continue to grow throughout 2022. The bulk of warehouse rental rates are increasing into the mid $7.00 rate range depending on building age. In the 50K to 100K SF range for functional shallow bay product, we are seeing rates from $8.00 to $9.00 depending on the finish level and age. Rental abatements are still prevalent depending on renewal versus new deals and the size of the lease transaction. Tenant improvement costs remained high because of increasing construction costs.
DFW International Airport is ranked as one of the largest cargo airports in the country. It boasts a high proportion of newer buildings since 2000 and, as a result, the submarket has a high concentration of efficient product with clear heights and dock configurations suitable for modern distribution. The submarket consists of large big-box users including Amazon, Uline, PPG, Bed Bath & Beyond, McKesson and many others.

CURRENT EVENTS
The Northeast/East Dallas submarket continues to be heavily sought after by tenants, developers, and the capital markets. With the NE Dallas/Garland pocket posting a 1.2% vacancy rate, there is a clear need for additional space which sets the stage well for the new developments coming along the 635/Highway 80 corridor. All product types are experiencing rent growth at an unprecedented pace with rental rates rising as much as 30% from one year ago. Big moves are being made with covered land plays in Garland which will bring unprecedented land pricing to the submarket. This is only made possible by the expected rent growth that is still to come. All eyes are on new frontiers, such as Forney and Sunnyvale, which are seeing good activity with new leases being signed on fully delivered buildings.

LARGE EXISTING VACANCIES
The Far Northeast Dallas submarket continues to be highly sought after given its proximity to areas with exceptional population growth. Leasing activity has remained strong through Q3 2022 and is expected to continue with new tenant requirements coming to the market daily. Richardson and Plano have led the charge with the highest net absorption for this quarter while also posting vacancy near 3.5%. Functional warehouse spaces have become much harder to find in these pockets which sets the stage for the new developments that are getting started in Rockwall, McKinney and Frisco. Preleasing activity for these developments has been stronger than expected for smaller suite sizes which indicates that the “flight to quality” is real as tenants are compromising on timing and are willing to pay significantly higher rates. Due to this, rates are expected to continue to increase–even with record breaking deliveries expected over the next 12 months.

CURRENT EVENTS
Through Q3 2022, the northwest Dallas industrial submarket continues to be one of the strongest performing submarkets in DFW. Valwood continues to be a haven for building supplies companies as well as 3PL’s with its direct access to I-35. Billingsley, Longpoint, Panattoni, and TA Realty have leased their recent developments in Valwood. The Metropolitan/Addison submarket is extremely tight from a vacancy standpoint as there are not any more available sites for development. Lastly, as developers move north to track down sites in Denton and Sanger, Highway 121 is now centrally located in the DFW market and an extremely desirable location for users. The northwest Dallas submarket ended Q3 2022 with a 3.7% vacancy rate which will continue to drop as the final wave of developments on Highway 121 will be delivered in Q4 and will be leased soon thereafter.

The overall South Dallas Industrial submarket as surveyed of I-30, I-20, & I-45 is 150 Million square feet and is now 6.3% vacant which is 1.1% higher than reported in Q2 2022. In accordance with the area surveyed, CoStar is reporting positive 3,908,027 square feet of Net Absorption for South Dallas in Q3 2022. South Dallas has 24.5 Million SF under construction in the I-30, I-20, & I-45 corridors combined with another 15.2 Million in the pipeline. Of the existing 24.5 Million SF under construction, 21.7% or 5.2 Million SF is for Build-to-Suit or Design Build assignments or has been pre-leased. The remaining 78.3% or 18.7 Million SF under construction is speculative development. For the past 12 months the South Dallas submarket of I-30, I-20 and I-45 averaged a single digit vacancy rate of 5.25%. However, many expect that single digit vacancy to rise again along Interstate 20 and Interstate 45 as construction projects from various developers may outpace tenant demand and absorption in the changing macro-economic environment.
Please note: CoStar’s South Dallas boundaries do not include the west Dallas I-30 corridor. As such, their data in the charts may vary.
CURRENT EVENTS
The South Stemmons industrial submarket continues to be a strong performing infill market of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. Leasing activity has remained healthy with the submarket reporting 942,684 SF of leasing activity at the end of 3Q 2022. Vacancy was recorded at 3.9% at the end of Q3 2022 which increased slightly from 3.4% reported at the end of Q2 2022. Rental rates and price per SF continue to rise and landlords continue to capitalize on the submarket’s irreplicable infill location. South Stemmons, historically known as a user-owned market, has become primarily institutionally owned. Location has continued to outweigh functionality for tenants who benefit from the close proximity to Dallas CBD, the Medical District, and immediate access to thriving Dallas suburbs.

VITAL STATS
CURRENT EVENTS
In the midst of capital market uncertainty, North Fort Worth remains as strong and stable as ever through Q3 2022. With just under 4M SF of absorption in Q3, the North Ft Worth submarket has now surpassed its record-setting, annual absorption posting of 7.5M SF for 2021 with a YTD posting of 11M SF. Q3 activity was so strong, the market started to see both pre leasing transactions (1.2M SF at Elizabeth Creek Gateway, 334k SF at Meacham Commerce Center and 114k SF at Air Commerce Center) and leases executed within 45 days of delivery (291K SF at Westside 35, 250k SF at Sylvania Crossing and two 124K SF deals at Westside 35.) The submarket vacancy rate has compressed down to 6.9% and the second generation vacancy rate is hovering around 1% currently.

The South Fort Worth industrial submarket posted a Q3 2022 vacancy of 5.7%, a figure slightly down from the 7.8% recorded in Q2 2022. This drop in vacancy correlates with the ~289k SF of new deliveries and the ~2.1M SF in absorption that were confirmed this quarter. A statistic which ranks the South Fort Worth submarket in second behind South Dallas in terms of Q3 absorption further validating its position as one of the top performing submarkets in the metroplex. We also expect to see the vacancy rate decrease through the remaining quarter of 2022 with ~700k SF of active deals tracking to be made in the submarket in contrast with the ~600K SF of expected new construction deliveries.
Looking forward to 2023, the South Fort Worth speculative development pipeline is currently slated to deliver over 2.1M SF with additional projects on the cusp of announcement that will bolster that figure. Specifically, this pipeline consists of TCRG’s 655,500 SF cross-dock at Risinger Road Building 2, Majestic’s 781,530 SF cross dock at Southland 10, VanTrust’s 607,074 SF cross dock at Fort Worth Logistics Hub Building 2, and Cabot’s 80,300 SF rear-load development at Everman Trade Center Building E. All of these developments have already broken ground.
