F R O M

elcome and thank you for joining us for the 2014 Old Dominion University E.V. Williams Center for elcom Real Estate and Economic Development (CREED) Hampton Roads Real Estate Market Review & Forecast. This is our 19th annual market report and review and we sincerely appreciate your continued support.

Our mission is to connect the multi-disciplinary analyses, innovative curriculum and research underway at ODU with students, industry, and the public sector interested and engaged in the real estate and economic development communities. Our membership of industry professionals believe in the importance of linking practice to scholarship and in fostering opportunities for interested students. This high degree of support and involvement by our membership is directly linked to the expansion of CREED programs and services.

Our report this year features perspectives from real estate insiders across the spectrum of commercial and residential markets. While many readers are familiar with forecasts based on econometric models, the trends presented in this report are based on current data and the insights of industry practitioners. CREED is pleased to have the participation of a select group of real estate professionals in data collection for the report. These professionals work in each Hampton Roads submarket and are in tune to the development trends and activities that shape them.

The fusion of scholarship and practice is the scope of CREED’s mission to enrich and to engage the real estate student community at Old Dominion University. Our membership takes an active role in the classroom, on campus, and in external capacities as mentors and advisors.

In 2013, CREED welcomed numerous Hampton Roads industry leaders to the College of Business and Public Administration to strengthen students’ understanding of the roles economic development and commercial real estate development and investment play in driving our regional economy. During the past year, CREED saw the realization of its CREED Real Estate Student Council (CRESC). This organizational resource for students provides learning and networking opportunities with exposure to the region’s leading industry employers and to real time planning and development underway in Hampton Roads. Special thanks to the Wells Fargo Center and S.L. Nusbaum Realty Co. for hosting the CREED Real Estate Student Council’s inaugural site visit in the fall.

Bridging the student and real estate and development communities is an effective channel for positioning rising graduates and undergraduate students in the marketplace. CREED’s programming, including its annual CREED Real Estate Scholarship Tennis Pro-Am, is committed to providing students with the resources and academic enrichment necessary to succeed as full time employees in our industry. I would like to extend my sincere thanks to the local employers that have provided such opportunities for our students over the course of the last year.

All of CREED’s activities and events make your membership in CREED one of the most cost effective networking organizations you can ever support. Not only do you receive complimentary registration for our major events, but you also have the opportunity to participate in research seminars presented by Old Dominion University featuring national experts on such topics as the impact of sea level rise on commercial real estate. With your input, we plan to offer more research seminars in the near future and look forward to your participation.

In closing, I want to thank the members of the Executive Committee, past and present, for their devotion to making CREED a center of excellence. Lastly, a very special thanks to Kyllie Bullion and Stephanie Sanker for their tireless support and vision of CREED’s future.

General Overview his report analyzes the 2013 retail real estate conditions within the Virginia Beach-Norfolk-Newport News, Virginia Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) which is commonly referred to as Hampton Roads. The report examines supply, vacancy, construction, absorption, and rent data to provide a comparison of data for the specific submarkets and product types located within the Southside and Peninsula regions of the Hampton Roads MSA. Southside properties surveyed for the purpose of this report included those located in the cities of Chesapeake, Norfolk, Portsmouth, Smithfield, Suffolk and Virginia Beach. Peninsula properties surveyed are located in the cities of Gloucester, Hampton, Newport News, Poquoson, Williamsburg, and York County. This survey is recognized as the most comprehensive analysis of retail real estate trends in the Hampton Roads MSA. The report includes information on all retail property types including regional malls, freestanding buildings and strip centers of various classifications. The scope of the report also includes a summary of new retail construction activity, an analysis of absorption, and a review of selected retail investment sales that have occurred in the region in 2013.

METHODOLOGY This survey gathered information about strip shopping centers and regional malls located in the Hampton Roads MSA that were generally 30,000 square feet in size or larger. Additionally, information on retail-oriented freestanding buildings at least 23,000 square feet and freestanding buildings that contained furniture stores, discounters, grocery stores or category killer retailers that met the established size criteria were included in the survey. Automotive uses and buildings containing â&#x20AC;&#x153;downtown storefrontsâ&#x20AC;? were not included. Although available retail space in many submarkets (e.g. Ghent) is best described as a collection of small specialty shops, storefronts or freestanding buildings, practical limitations dictated that the focus of the survey be on larger product types. The survey data was collected between October 2013 and January 2014. Questionnaires were mailed to owners, leasing agents and property managers responsible for retail properties meeting the selection criteria. Direct contact was utilized as a follow-up to the mailing to encourage participation. Information on square footage for freestanding buildings was obtained from building owners, tax records, store managers and retail real estate representatives. Sales information was obtained from property owners, real estate agents, appraisers and real estate assessors.

2014 Hampton Roads Real Estate Market Review

DEFINITIONS OF TERMS Asking Rates: The market rate per square foot of a retail property (excluding freestanding buildings and malls), exclusive of additional rents that may be paid under a triple net lease. Interpretation of average retail rates in different product types and submarkets should be viewed cautiously given the tremendous variability in rates for like products and for properties located within the same submarket. Factors such as visibility, co-tenancy, and accessibility, are some of the many sources of variation in market rates which should be considered. Big Boxes: Contiguous retail space that is at least 23,000 square feet and located in any one of the identified product types. Retailers occupying big boxes include, but are not limited to, the following: category killers, specialty stores, discounters, furniture stores, grocery stores and theaters. Bowling alleys, automotive uses, roller rinks and ice-skating rinks were not included. CAM: Common Area Maintenance. Product Types: Properties were classified according to one of the following nine retail product types. The International Council of Shopping Centers defined the first six categories. Three additional categories were included to accurately categorize the remaining properties. 30,000 to 150,000 square feet; supermarket anchored

Community Center

100,000 to 350,000 square feet; discount department store, supermarket or drug store anchored

Fashion/Specialty Center

80,000 to 250,000 square feet; fashion anchored

Power Center

250,000 to 600,000 square feet; category killer, home improvement and discount department store anchored

Theme Festival Center

80,000 to 250,000 square feet; restaurants, entertainment anchored

Outlet Center

50,000 to 400,000 square feet; manufacturerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s outlet store anchored

Freestanding

Individual building not considered a shopping center

Mall

Shopping center with area designed for pedestrian use only

Other

Any center that does not fit into a typical category

Regional Mall Node: Submarket anchored by regional mall. Small Shop: In-line retail space usually less than 10,000 square feet located in a multi-tenanted shopping center.

2014 RETAIL

Neighborhood Center

Submarkets: Hampton Roads is divided into 35 retail submarkets (25 Southside submarkets and 10 Peninsula submarkets) which reflected general concentrations, pockets or corridors of retail product type. Geographical boundaries of the retail submarkets were influenced by density of existing retail product, physical or geographical obstacles, existing transportation networks, municipal boundaries, population concentrations and retailersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; perceptions of the MSA. Final determination of specific boundaries of each submarket was made by a subcommittee of retail real estate professionals who are actively involved in the MSA. Also highlighted were specific submarkets that are anchored by regional malls. A map which identifies the general location of each submarket is included in the centerfold of this report. Triple Net Lease: Type of lease under which a tenant pays its pro-rata share of real estate taxes, insurance and common area maintenance.

YEAR IN REVIEW 2013 The Hampton Roads market appears to have stabilized. 2013 saw the re-emergence of grocery stores to the market as Walmart and Kroger continued to expand their presence. On a national level, the retail market remained stable and, as such, remained stable here in Hampton Roads. 2013 did not bring a mass exodus of retailers; however, a few large box brands did limp into 2014 and we expect a thinning of the herd as these retailers attempt to remain viable. The financing market is stable with lenders actively seeking opportunities. A disconnect remains on product valuation between buyers, sellers and lenders of retail centers and, as such, we did not see a great deal of investment sales in Hampton Roads this past year. 2013 brought increased activity from grocery stores. Kroger, Walmart Neighborhood Market, and Harris Teeter were very active. Harris Teeter was purchased by Kroger and we will pause to see how this will curtail expansion by both retailers. Walmart opened on Jefferson Avenue and is under construction in the Pembroke area of Virginia Beach with a Super Center. Five of the smaller Neighborhood Market concepts are under construction in Hampton Roads. Harris Teeter will open in the Red Mill area of Virginia Beach and in the Wards Corner area of Norfolk. Kroger opened its 124,000 square foot Marketplace concept on Holland Road in Virginia Beach and is under construction with two more in Portsmouth and Northern Suffolk respectively. Additionally, Whole Foods has announced they will anchor Tech Center at Oyster Point in Newport News and The Fresh Market will open in the Ghent section of Norfolk. Dave and Buster’s opened at Lynnhaven Mall and West Marine opened in Loehman’s Plaza in Virginia Beach. Starbucks opened a drive thru only location in Virginia Beach; this was the first in Virginia and only the seventh in the country. CVS and 7-11 both continued aggressive expansion within the market. Simon Properties has Lake Wright under contract and is working to bring an outlet mall to the Norfolk site. We saw two small redevelopment projects along Lynnhaven Parkway near the mall with Noodles, Five Guys and Mattress Firm anchoring those developments. Lynnhaven Convenience, a mostly vacant property along Virginia Beach Boulevard anchored by Farm Fresh, is being redeveloped. Farm Fresh closed and has been replaced by Walmart Neighborhood Market, One Life Fitness, and Hobby Lobby. Bahama Breeze and Old Navy opened at the entrance of Pembroke Mall. Settler’s Market in Williamsburg came full circle. After starting off slowly, going through foreclosure, and sitting partially constructed, the new ownership was able to re-energize the project and Home Goods, Stein Mart, Michaels, Ulta, Shoe Carnival and 5 Below opened in March occupying roughly 200,000 sf of a 250,000 sf project. There is concern for certain retailers as they continue to struggle on a national level. K-Mart and Sears are closing stores on both a local and national level. K-mart closed the Chesapeake Square and Tidewater Drive locations with many more being offered for lease with or without K-Mart. J.C. Penney’s announced the closing of the Military Highway location, while Ruby Tuesday shuttered thirty stores across the country and one here in Virginia Beach. Blockbuster finally threw in the towel and closed the last of its stores across the country, Radio Shack is closing 500 stores, Best Buy tried to go private, but could not obtain financing and Barnes and Noble placed themselves for sale, but did not find any suitors. The retail landscape is constantly changing and those tenants that do not change with it will be closing their doors. Hampton Roads is stable, new tenants are looking for locations within the market, and we are seeing new development. We do expect the vacancy rate to increase because of the amount of big box space that will come to the market, but we also expect rental rates to increases as quality retail product is limited at this time.

2014 Hampton Roads Real Estate Market Review

HAMPTON ROADS MARKET SURVEY The Hampton Roads retail market contained approximately 54,222,598 square feet of gross leasable area (“GLA”) in 422 properties with an average asking rental rate of $15.97 with triple net charges (Common Area Maintenance, Real Estate Taxes and Insurance) running $2.87 per square foot. The US Census Bureau indicates the population of Hampton Roads is approximately 1.7 Million resulting in a 31.90 square feet of retail supply per person. Certain methodological differences (e.g., the inclusion of freestanding buildings and malls in this survey) make it difficult to compare per capita supply in the MSA to a national average statistic. Hampton Roads consist of two markets, the Southside and Peninsula. The Southside market has approximately 35,835,277 square feet, roughly 66% of the total square footage in the market, in 288 properties. The average asking rent for small shop space increased $.20 over 2012 numbers to $16.56 triple net. The increase in rental rates can be attributed to consistent demand as vacancy rates remained low at 6.74% in 2013. While 89,200 square feet of new construction came on line in 2013, Hampton Roads has significant amounts of new construction in the pipeline for 2014.

In 2013, the Hampton Roads market did see a slight increase in the vacancy rate as 2012’s overall 7.85% vacancy rate gave way to 2013’s 8.37%. This increase is largely due to more Big Box space coming onto the market. While landlords and tenants continue to get creative in the deal making process and retailers are repositioning themselves within the market creating new developments, as well as second generation opportunities, local tenants are not as abundant as in years past. Landlords are approaching these second generation spaces with both traditional and non-traditional retailers to back fill the space. Unlike years past, the market was not saturated with retail product due to mass store closings; however, we expect a fair amount of big box retail space to enter in 2014. Specifically, K-mart and Sears present large blocks that may enter the market.

2014 RETAIL

The Peninsula also experienced some mixed change this past year. The 134 properties on the Peninsula that were surveyed combined for 18,387,321 square feet of product. The average asking price of small shop space was $14.61 per square foot with $2.69 in triple net charges. The vacancy rate for the greater Peninsula was 11.55%; however, activity and interest in the Peninsula market is strong in the first quarter of 2014. The Williamsburg submarket rebounded as new ownerships were able to reposition previously faltering projects.

We move forward acknowledging 2014 is off to a strong start. We will see the size of the overall market increase due to grocery store expansion as multiple new centers are currently under construction and will be opening this year. We will approach the older second generation space for re-use and redevelopment. It should be noted some of the larger vacant space highest and best use may no longer be retail. These spaces will continue to negatively impact the overall Hampton Roads numbers until such time as they are redeveloped.

RETAIL PRODUCT TYPE The Neighborhood Center remains the predominant product type with 173 properties with over 12 million square feet of GLA. The Community Centers comprised almost 10 million square feet with both product types showing a decrease in vacancy rate and an increase in rental rate. We do anticipate new Neighborhood Centers in 2014 and expect they will contain less small shop space than traditionally developed.

BIG BOX VACANCY Big box vacancy increased in 2013 and is expected to climb again in 2014. The thought being several big box retailers limped into 2014. Additionally, a few small shop retailers are struggling as well. We will see tenants right size their units as they modify their footprints to stay current to what the market dictates. The boxes that we believe will bring the most product to market are K-Mart, Sears, and J.C. Penney. The 1,825,202 square feet of vacant space represents 40% of the total retail vacancy in the market. It is important to note some of the vacant boxes are now functionally or practically obsolete for todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s retailer. They will remain on the report as retail product until such time as they are demolished, converted to a non-retail use, or redeveloped.

2014 INDUSTRIAL

General Overview his report analyzes the 2013 industrial real estate conditions within the Virginia Beach-NorfolkNewport News, VA-NC Metropolitan Statistical Area (the MSA) that is also known as Hampton Roads. It provides inventory, vacancy, rent, sale and other data for the MSA. The survey includes properties in the cities of Chesapeake, Hampton, Newport News, Norfolk, Poquoson, Portsmouth, Suffolk, Virginia Beach and Williamsburg, plus the counties of Gloucester, James City, York and Isle of Wight.

METHODOLOGY This survey includes the following types of properties: • Office-warehouse, industrial and shop facilities of 5,000 square feet or greater, although some facilities of less than 5,000 may be included. • Properties must have less than 80% office space to be included in the ODU industrial survey. • Both owner-occupied and leased properties are included. Owner-occupied is defined as property that is 100% occupied by a business that is the same and/or is related to the owner of the building. • All properties that are available and are listed for sale or lease regardless of whether they are occupied are included, unless they are strictly available for sale as an investment property. For example, a property that is available for sale and is currently occupied on a short term lease is included. • All properties that have commenced construction (foundations installed as a minimum). The Survey excludes the following types of properties: • Land • Warehouse or shop facilities on shipyard properties. • Warehouse or industrial facilities on federal government property (e.g. military installations). • Industrial facilities on government property (e.g. Norfolk International Terminal or Newport News Marine Terminal). Functional submarket delineations are determined with some regard to city boundaries, but boundaries are not determinative. The entire market is divided into 16 submarkets defined by industrial building concentrations, the transportation network, and pertinent physical features. The area map included in this report provides a location for key reference.

2014 Hampton Roads Real Estate Market Review

The E.V. Williams Center for Real Estate and Economic Development (CREED) at Old Dominion University has been tracking the inventory of the Hampton Roads industrial market since 1995. The results of this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s survey (collected during the 4th quarter of 2013) indicate that the Hampton Roads industrial market currently encompasses 107,695,634 square feet of space located in 2,878 buildings throughout the Region. Totals may differ from other market surveys due to the self-imposed limitations established by the ODU CREED methodology described above.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Overall vacancy in the Hampton Roads industrial market showed a dramatic improvement in 2013. Vacancy fell by 2.16%, and finished the year under 10%. This marks the fourth straight year of decline, and this trend appears to be accelerating.

2010 2011 2012 2013

12.48% 12.12% 11.47% 9.88%

0.46% decline 0.36% decline 1.01% decline 2.24% decline

Looking deeper, there are a few items that warrant caution: 1. Most of the Hampton Roads absorption for 2013 was credited to the Peninsula. 2. The Copeland/Lower Peninsula submarket absorbed 1,308,472 square feet, 77% of the total Hampton Roads absorption for 2013. A number of major lease transactions occurred in this submarket, and 490,071 square feet were demolished to drive vacancy to 8.42%, an 11.47% improvement over 2012. 3. Eight out of 12 Southside submarkets showed improved occupancy: however, overall Southside absorption totaled only 183,934 square feet or .23% of existing industrial inventory. By comparison, the national average for leasing activity as a percentage of total inventory is 4.0%. 4. Three out of four Peninsula submarkets showed improved occupancy.

Suffolk enjoyed 533,485 square feet of absorption and a 4.6% decrease in vacancy to its lowest level in the last seven years: 8.45%. Airport Industrial Park was the highlight submarket for Virginia Beach, with 4.39% decrease in vacancy over 2012. Unfortunately, the Lynnhaven submarket increased vacancy to an all-time high of 22.88% with 2600 International Parkway coming on the market (870,000 square feet), as well as a number of larger properties in the South Oceana area also available.

2014 INDUSTRIAL

Many submarkets continued to be stable, and in many cases improved. Chesapeake had a turn-around year, with decreasing vacancy in Greenbrier, Cavalier and the Bainbridge submarkets. Total absorption for the City of Chesapeake: 578,712 square feet.

Norfolkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s three submarkets are stable, and average a very healthy 8.56% vacancy. In contrast, Portsmouth continues to suffer. Vacancy rose to a historical high of 16.11%. In summary, the market continues to trend in a positive direction. Slow and steady improvement in most submarkets is lowering vacancy rates and absorbing quality product. It is expected that 2014 will continue this trend.

For 2013, Cushman and Wakefield compared differing metropolitan areas by analyzing absorption as a percentage of total inventory. Hampton Roads finished the year on par with the national average. The Region lagged the Nation in new construction as a percentage of total inventory: 0.1% locally to the national average of 0.8%. This makes it a fairly easy prediction that 2014 total vacancy will continue to decline, while it is estimated that absorption will be better than 2013 by a narrow margin. In the coming year, the expansion of the Panama Canal appears to be the only identifiable driver of growth for the Hampton Roads industrial market. Employment and gross regional product growth is expected to be modest. Military spending and sequestration impact will be mixed.

VACANCIES AND ABSORPTION There are two unique features of the ODU/CREED Survey. The first one is the use of SIOR real estate professionals to collect and collate the data from each submarket. These individuals are more than researchers; they are a select group of professionals that work in each submarket on a daily basis. They are in tune to the nuances of market, the trends and forces that shape them. Second, the data is collected in December of the reporting year, yielding a accurate year-to-year summary of market performance. Absorption is calculated as a simple increase or decrease in occupied space, while incorporating factors such as changes increases (new product) or decreases (demolition) in market square footages.

Greenbrier continued to improve in 2013. At the center of Hampton Roads, this location offers a great blend of warehouse, general, industrial, and flex space. Surrounding affordable housing, retail, food and hospitality make for a desirable business location.Highlights of 2013 include a rezoning of Dollar Treeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s corporate campus from industrial to PUD-U, allowing future mixed-use development. The multi-phased development could total over five million square feet. Construction could begin in 2014. The City of Chesapeake announced the delivery of a new industrial park on 100 acres north of I-64 at Greenbrier. Formerly state owned, the project will kick-off with a 150,000 square foot build-to-suit for Oceaneering by Armada Hoffler Properties.

With a vacancy of 7.33%, Norfolk Industrial Park is performing well. It is one of the largest submarkets in Hampton Roads, and has some of the oldest buildings in Hampton Roads. It has a strategic location advantage over many industrial submarkets, and offers a wide range of functional buildings to prospective tenants/buyers. While showing an absorption of 87,001 square feet, a number of industrial buildings did sell within the park in 2013, further testifying to the strength of the market.

This submarket is truly a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;localâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; submarket and traditionally is occupied by companies that service the surrounding community or are owned by folks that live in the area. Vacancy rates have remained at 8% for the last 4 years. It is not expected to change appreciably in 2014.

The Lynnhaven submarket continues to suffer. A large part of the increase in vacancy is due to 2600 International Parkway (868,506 square feet) being brought to market for sale or lease. There are other large manufacturing, warehouse, and distribution facilities on the market as well (1440 London Bridge Road: 400,000 square feet; 2345 Taylor Farm Road: 75,900 square feet; 1357 Taylor Farm Road: 65,000 square feet). Navy and City of Virginia Beach restrictions on use are hampering marketing of these facilities, and limiting prospective occupiers.

This is one of the submarkets available for businesses looking to serve the general industrial needs of Virginia Beach. Smaller, multi-tenanted buildings dominate and vacancy has historically remained low. Just about half the vacant space is found in four buildings, each over 20,000 square feet. This submarket is land-constrained, and canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t accommodate much substantial new development. Located within one of Virginia Beachâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Strategic Growth Areas, expect this submarket to see substantial evolution over the coming years.

Demand for space close to the center of the Hampton Roads industrial market has boosted absorption in Airport Industrial Park. With a modest 3.7 million square feet of space, and only 300,000 square feet available, expect this submarket to show continued improvement in 2014.

Portsmouth is poised for a renaissance in 2014. Two major redevelopment projects sold in 2013: 3050-3100 Elmhurst Lane (200,000 square feet) and the former Smithfield Foods plant at 2175 Elmhurst Lane (131,553 square feet). The buildings at 3050-3100 Elmhurst Lane will be retrofitted and brought to market as a Class A/B distribution building and should lease quickly due to proximity to the Port of Virginia. Expect a sharp reduction in vacancy for Portsmouth in 2014.

Suffolk remains the primary expansion market for Hampton Roads. No new construction occurred in 2013 and Class A vacancy is less than 2%. There is some remaining Class B warehouse space. For 2013, it is interesting to note that much of the absorption was in Class C warehouse and distribution product. Expect the overall vacancy rate to drop further in 2014.

Industrial activity in the Isle of Wight submarket is primarily focused on the large tracts of land available at Shirley T. Holland Intermodal Park. The park is well positioned to benefit from the Panama Canal expansion in coming years as it offers competitive land for warehousing and distribution companies looking to build in Hampton Roads. Its rural location and small population base limits speculative industrial development.

During 2013, this submarket saw significant absorption in Class B space specifically the former Spiegel facility. Newport News Ship yard and several of its contractors took 372,000 square feet of space in 2013. The Camp Morrison warehouses were removed from the market survey as here to fore they skewed the vacancy rate and the warehouses are slated for demolition in the near future. The availability of good functional warehouse space is difficult to find, but the rental rates do not justify new development as of yet. Small incubator type space will fare well this year and in the near term as startups begin to germinate in the market.

The Oakland Upper Peninsula is a very thin market with only 5 million square feet of space in small pockets such as Victory Industrial Park, Greene Industrial Park, and Peninsula Industrial Park. Thus, the majority of the buildings in these parks are typically less than 10,000 square feet. These are popular buildings for lease or purchase. The availability of Shorewood Packaging is of significant note to this submarket for it represents half of the vacant space in this submarket. Shorewood Packaging has been on the market for almost two years. Finally, Oakland Park is home to several local, national and international firms. It is also home to the Army Air Force Exchange distribution facility which compromises 30% of the entire Oakland Upper Peninsula submarket.

Total sales volume and total transactions for 2013 continued to decline and reflect a downward trajectory. Two very important industrial transactions were not included in the reported numbers: IndCor Properties purchase of the First Potomac Realty Trust industrial portfolio (total of 4.3 million square feet in the Mid- Atlantic) for $259 million and the Cabot Properties sale to Liberty Property Trust of their nationwide industrial portfolio of 23 million square feet for an estimated $1.5 billion. Both transactions involved local investment grade properties in Hampton Roads totaling over 1.1 million square feet of industrial space, but do not reflect local pricing or demand.

A few more analytical notes: 1. Average Price per square foot dropped to the lowest level in the last six years: a. 2013: b. 2012: c. 2011: d. 2007 is the recorded high:

$28.62 per square foot $36.83 per square foot $38.02 per square foot $73.26 per square foot

This number was skewed by a few larger industrial transactions deeply discounted to market or sold for land value. Still, overall pricing continues to ‘bounce along the bottom’. 2. Median Price per square foot trended slightly downward: a. 2013: b. 2012: c. 2011: d. 2007 was the recorded high: e. 2010 was the recorded low:

3. Wow, this looks tough…but While this report did not include the institutional purchases of IndCor Properties and Liberty Property Trust, it is worthwhile to note that Hampton Roads has seen an increase in investment interest in 2013. REIT’s and investors are considering second tier markets like Hampton Roads for a number of reasons, including: less competition with larger institutional funds; opportunity for higher upside potential in a market associated with a world class port. One example is the purchase of 3050-3100 Elmhurst Lane in Portsmouth to an investment group with occupancy at only 20%. The new owners will bring the property to Class A standards and expect to capture tenants looking for quality warehouse space. Expect more ‘value add’ investment purchase in 2014.

LEASING

2014 INDUSTRIAL

April 2013

Leasing activity was sluggish in 2013. Few major transactions occurred, with most leases being either renewals or move-to-quality relocations. With a pick-up in absorption, mostly in high quality properties, it is expected that overall vacancies will decline slightly in 2014. Tenants seeking better facilities in the 10,000-20,000 square foot range can expect to find few options available as the best buildings are leased. This trend will continue in high cube warehouse space, where many tenants are demanding higher clear height, greater sprinkler capacities, and superior loading/trailer storage. New fire/life safety demands are also moving tenants away from older buildings with wet or dry systems that severely hamper the ability to manufacture or store product.

Lease rates throughout Hampton Roads saw very little change in 2013. Overall leasing activity finished at 3.5 million square feet, an improvement over the five year average of 3.1 million square feet. Unfortunately, this activity did not translate to significant increases in absorption, reflecting a high level of lease renewal or lateral (no net gain in square footage) moves to new facilities. The remaining influence on rates will be demand in high quality properties and the market continues to incrementally improve. 38

MAJOR MARKET ACTIVITY Aside from normal market transactions, there have been a number of significant industrial market developments worthy of note.

â&#x20AC;˘ 2600 International Parkway, Virginia Beach. 870,000 square feet warehouse facility. Back on the market, for sale or for lease. This property was purchased in February 2013 and was reintroduced to the market by the owner. It is the largest block of space available in Hampton Roads.

â&#x20AC;˘ Lumber Liquidators: 1.2 million square feet may be coming to the market in 2014. Lumber Liquidators has chosen to consolidate into a larger 1 million square foot facility in Eastern Henrico County.

2014 INDUSTRIAL

REGIONAL INFLUENCES ON THE LOCAL MARKET Beyond real estate transactions, the following events occurred in 2013 and will influence the Hampton Roads industrial market for years to come.

The Port of Virginia • Port of Virginia’s 2013 TEU Volume was the highest in history. • In February 2014, The Port of Virginia welcomed John Reinhart as the new executive director and chief executive officer. Reinhart brings more than 20 years of diverse maritime experience to the Virginia Port Authority. The Port of Virginia had a record-setting 2013; handling more containers and rail cargo than any other time in history. The Port experienced six consecutive months of best container and TEU volumes from May through October 2013. November and December of 2013 were the second best November and December in history after the record volumes were handled in the same months in 2012 due to diversions from Hurricane Sandy. The Port experienced double-digit rail growth, year-over-year, in 11 of the last 14 months. The Port finished 2013 with rail cargo representing 34% of the port’s total container traffic, which is the highest in the port’s history on a calendar year basis; truck and barge cargo represent 62% and 4% respectively of total port traffic. The 2013 cargo totals and the percentage of increase over 2012 are as follows: • TEUs: 2,223,532, up 5.6% • Containers: 1,274,911, up 5.4% • General Cargo Tonnage: 18,840,303, up 7.5% • Total Rail Containers: 430,894, up 11.7% Note that container traffic by rail showed the largest increase, up 11.7%. This increase in rail traffic may be good for the Port, yet bad for the local industrial market. Every lift from ship-to-rail results in no net demand for local warehousing as each container is shipped to destinations outside of Hampton Roads. This trend is expected to continue with the drive towards greater fuel efficiencies associated with rail, reducing local road congestion, and the costs associated with maintenance. • The Tolls and Route 460 improvements: With tunnel tolls in place to improve routing from east to west under the Elizabeth River, the cost of moving product from Norfolk International Terminal and warehousing on the east side of the river will increase. Will this increase in transportation cost be enough to move product to the APM Terminal in Portsmouth? While the Rt. 460 improvement project was a transportation priority for Governor McDonnell, it is yet to be seen if the new administration supports the roadway expansion. Army Corp wetlands issues along the proposed route also cloud the future of this project. Will the lack of a third major artery out of Hampton Roads deter shipping companies from using the Port of Virginia?

CONCLUSION 2013 showed signs of an improving market for Hampton Roads. Unemployment declined to below 6%, and the national and local economy is showing modest improvement. The effect of military spending cuts and sequestration were not as dramatic as feared. On the other hand, the Port of Virginia appears to be the remaining economic driver for industrial demand in the Region. We have yet to see the influence of the new Panama Canal expansion. It is expected that 2014 will show modest, continued improvement in both occupancy and rent growth.

2014 OFFICE

General Overview he Hampton Roads office market ended 2013 offering proof of steady, but conservative activity in the marketplace. This was characterized by slight decreases in vacancy and minor adjustments to absorption and rental rates year-over-year. As for economic growth, let’s just say there have been better years for the Hampton Roads MSA as 2013 left us wanting more. Much of the problem for 2013 and its inability to create significant job growth and bolster the economy was due highly to fiscal uncertainty as a result of Washington’s partisanship. Unemployment in the region stood at 5.9%, while the Gross Regional Product expanded at a mere rate of 1.73%. Hampton Roads was directly impacted by sequestration that prompted billions of cuts from the defense budget that, in turn, trickled down to defense and government contracting companies in Hampton Roads realizing a decline in military spending of an estimated $330 million or 1.71 % in 2013. As a result, one of the region’s larger communities of office users has now experienced major downsizing and rightsizing exercises due to these influences. There was a very large dip in absorption in 2013. Some of this is due to sequestration and some is due to right-sizing in general. However, on the bright side, Class A and B office rental rates did increase quite nicely. Class A rates increased overall by an average of $0.62 per square foot and Class B rates increased overall by an average of $1.08 per square foot. This is a strong indication that landlords are slowly gaining leverage over office market conditions after five years; however, not all markets have reached this mark. Some suburban submarkets will still need to offer incentives and concessions to inch down their vacancy percentages focusing largely on tenant retention. The 4th quarter of 2013 ended with a slight decrease in the overall vacancy rate at 11.8%, down from 12.1% in 2012. This slight decrease is due to a lack of major new construction projects and a few new office growth deals such as USAA, which absorbed over 80,000 square feet in Chesapeake, Liberty Live’s occupation of over 20,000 square feet in Suffolk, and growth of the old faithful medical sector on the Peninsula, CHKD’s occupancy of 20,000 square feet at Butler Farm, and Riverside Healthcare Associates occupation of over 16,000 square feet in Oyster Point.

Some resolution to federal spending was determined late in the fourth quarter of 2013 which prompted a fragment of confidence in the Hampton Roads workforce by funding the areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s military installations and manufacturing for the next two years. The National Defense Authorization Act of 2014 and the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013 will give back $63 billion in defense cuts in FY 2014 and FY 2015 created by the 2013 sequester. The legislation will also fund shipbuilding and repair contracts through the 2015 fiscal year ending on September 30.

Despite the most significant government shut down in U.S. history, as well as extended furloughs, lay-offs and the ongoing impact of sequestration throughout 2013, all of which slowed the local economic recovery, Virginia was still able to add almost 31,500 new jobs from the prior year (3,745,800 in 2012 to 3,777,300 in 2013). Although this is a weak uptick in employment growth as sequestration cost Hampton Roads 4,000 jobs, the resolution in Washington offered welcomed hope that the future may foster substantial employment growth, specifically from the government contractor sector, at least for the next two years. It is forecasted that unemployment will decline to a rate of 5.3% in 2014 and the Hampton Roads MSA will grow at a rate of 2%. While slower than the national average and the regionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s historical rate of 3.1%, this measure is ahead of the GSP growth of 1%.

2014 OFFICE

MARKET CONDITIONS Slow and stable progress maintained across the office market as right-sizing triggered by space efficiency decelerated space absorption. Relocations and renewals drove overall leasing volume, contributing to a below yearly average of 190,147 square feet of positive net absorption for 2013; a 68.6% difference from total net absorption recorded in 2012, of 606,000 square feet. A large contributor to the vast difference in absorption volume is due to the completion of the Amerigroup/Wellpoint lease in 2012 located at the remodeled Concourse Building in Central Norfolk. Static leasing activity attributed to very little new Class A or Class B construction in the market; however, Armada Hoffler did break ground on the new 4525 Main Street building located in the Town Center of Virginia Beach. Clark Nexsen will maintain exterior building signage as the anchor tenant in the building by occupying 80,000 SF. Additional office construction was led by tenant-owned build-to-suits or highly-specialized government buildings. These two additions gradually tightened office market conditions, specifically in the Class A inventory. Large ClassA blocks have diminished in numbers, particularly in Downtown Norfolk, where no vacant contiguous Class A blocks exist over 25,000 square feet.

2014 Hampton Roads Real Estate Market Review

The healthcare industry throughout the U.S. has also seen considerable hardships from the automatic budget cuts activated by sequestration. In March 2013, budget cuts automatically modified all health systemsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; revenues. These cuts equate to approximately $9.9 billion in government insurance subsidies for seniors and disabled Americans. In Hampton Roads, it was reported that our largest local health system received roughly $1 million less per month for its operations. Our second largest system loses about $300,000 monthly, and one of our regional health centers is losing close to $200,000 every month. These budget cuts have caused some health systems to hold off on new hires. In addition to the sequester cuts, the Affordable Care Act is projected by some to cause healthcare layoffs. For the first time in over a decade, the United States saw an increase in job loss in the healthcare industry. While the job loss was below 10,000, the healthcare sector generally averages an increase of 27,000 to 30,000 in jobs per month in the healthcare sector. Witnessing a loss is a shock particularly at a time when an increasing number of seniors will require more health care. Industry analysts hope that the job loss in the medical sector is just a result of the initial shock of the Affordable Care Act taking effect and working through growing pains. Conversely, the medical sector is one constant in the Hampton Roads office marketplace that has demonstrated employment growth year over year. This industry continues to show growth as the need to expand increases due to new medical breakthroughs and the Baby Boomer generation reaching retirement and nurturing years. As noted in Old Dominion Universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2013 State of the Region for Hampton Roads, from 2011 to 2012, 3,000 jobs in healthcare alone were added to the overall increase in employment growth. There were also considerable new medical office buildings that opened or broke ground in 2013 that are elaborated under 2013 New Construction. Growth of the healthcare industry is one of three major contributors which assist in the area. Healthcare, Port activity, and the increase in tourism spending all raise regional income and will drive growth in 2014 for the Hampton Roads MSA.

OUTLOOK FOR 2014 Hampton Roadsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; recovery will increase in pace in 2014. More construction is anticipated in the medical sector that should help bolster Office growth during the second half of 2014 with more anticipated acceleration expanding into 2015. Office users seeking Class A space will find few options outside the Class B inventory, pushing large users towards mid-sized build-to-suits. A large volume of lease expirations over the next 24 months may produce small waves of negative net absorption due to right sizing; a continuing trend in Hampton Roads and throughout the U.S. market. Short-term leases signed commonly by government contractors over the past two years will energize most of the upcoming renewal requirements. Large vacancies in the Class B inventory will begin to see spill-over demand as Class A market fundamentals tighten, although these leases will be temporary as the Class A supply pipeline reemerges with characteristics of a comeback. The medical sector will continue to show signs of growth in Hampton Roads which will lead to additional office space requirements and demand. Although there was a report of job loss in the United States in the month of December, this was not the case for Hampton Roads. In fact, Lend Lease Group broke ground in early 2013 on a 105,000 square foot, four-story medical office building at the DePaul Medical Campus located at 150 Kingsley Lane. The building will house several medical specialists and primary care medical practice groups. In addition, Sentara completed the East Tower which opened in November 2013. It is a five-story Class A medical building which features an Ortho-Joint center and ICU Center among several other medical facilities and beds. The development began in 2011 and completion of the atrium entry, outpatient center, outpatient pharmacy and other accommodations will be completed by spring 2016. Riverside Medical Center is in the process of developing a mixed-use campus at the intersection of Route 199 and Route 60. The campus is over 25 acres and is a component of the 380+ acre mixed-use campus named Quarterpath. This includes a new hospital for Riverside together with new medical office buildings, multi-family, single family and retail around the 25 acre medical facility. Based on the new medical growth in play, the anticipated growth in the healthcare arena, the influx of $63 billion in defense spending, and the tenacity of the American people, 2014 will produce a much better year and stronger office market moving forward. Hampton Roads has seen the worst of the setbacks and the dips in the economy. We are positioned to move forward in a modest, but steady upswing.

2014 RESIDENTIAL

General Overview esidential new construction in Hampton Roads in 2013 was characterized by a continuation of the market upturn that began in 2012, but at a slightly reduced pace. Permits, closings, and sales prices were up by middle single digits compared to 2012, and total revenue was up double digits for the second year in a row. Though we are still a long way from the lofty numbers of the boom years, the lines on the graphs are continuing to point in the right direction. The 4.8% increase in average sales price to $321,040 in 2013 was led by a renewed strength in single family detached price ranges above $350,000. Significantly, 2013 saw the first year over year increase in average sales price since 2006 to an average price last seen in 2009 and 2010. There are two main reasons for the average sales price increase: 1. a return of the move-up buyer due to improvements in the resale market; 2. an increase in land acquisition and labor costs, and a supply shortage, that pushed sales prices higher. Inventory levels in most price ranges continue at multi-year lows for the third straight year and in some price ranges inventory is completely depleted. In 2013 a few builders were able to expand their “spec” inventory programs to accommodate the demand for quick occupancy homes. Demand was driven primarily by military transferees with excellent sales results. Builders who were able to restore their “spec” building program will benefit from the expected seasonal increase in demand that will occur during the 2014 spring market. Most builders and lenders maintain a healthy skepticism about the depth of the housing recovery and are carefully weighing their options amid concerns about rising interest rates, lot acquisition costs, and labor costs, as well as the uncertain funding environment for the crucial military component of our economy. The biggest concern is that mortgage interest rates and lot acquisition and labor costs will increase too quickly which could force sales prices to increase at an unsustainable rate and cause a slowing of demand for new homes. Signs of a potential slowdown began in the latter part of 2013 with a noticeable decrease in the pace of new home traffic and sales that cannot be attributed to normal seasonal factors. It is too early to determine if this slowed pace will characterize residential sales activity in 2014. There is still considerable unmet buyer demand in the “for sale” segment of the residential housing market and this unmet demand, tempered by the availability of product and by affordability issues, will drive sales in 2014.

EXISTING HOMES The Hampton Roads existing real estate market showed signs of growth throughout 2013. Existing home closings came to realization just as the end of 2012 had indicated. All four quarters of 2013 posted increases in existing home closings. Overall, the region saw encouraging trends as inventory levels dropped, home closings rose, and the percentages of distressed properties in the market decreased. The active inventory of existing homes for sale in the region for 2013 increased 3.1% when compared to 2012. There were 7,718 existing homes for sale at the end of 2013, whereas there were 7,483 existing homes for sale at the end of 2012. This is the first time since 2009 that the region has seen a year-over-year increase in existing homes for sale. Despite active inventory counts rising, the months’ supply inventory dropped 7.6% to 5.1 months from 5.5 months in 2012. A significant increase of existing home closings caused the months’ supply inventory to drop, although existing homes for sale increased from the year prior. 25,000

2014 RESIDENTIAL

Distressed homes, those that are either bank owned or short sales, declined slightly in 2013 when compared to the year prior. Throughout the year distressed homes accounted for between 21.7% and 27% of existing homes for sale on a monthly basis, reaching a low during the month of June and a high during the month of January. Percentages are down from 2012â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s high of 28.1% and low of 24.2%. Due to population densities, Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, and Norfolk showed the most activity in regards to distressed homes.

2014 RESIDENTIAL Distressed homes comprised between 20.5% and 34.9% of existing home sales in the Hampton Roads region during 2013; on a monthly basis the low was in January and the high in July. These ranges can be compared to 2012’s low of 24.4% and high of 37.2%. The median sale price for these distressed homes fluctuated throughout the year between $119,900 in February and $135,000 in September. Meanwhile non-distressed existing homes recorded a median sale price of $190,000 in July and $230,000 in June. At years end, the median sale price of existing distressed homes was $125,500, a nominal discount of $79,500 and discount percentage of 38.8% when compared to the year-end median price of non-distressed existing sales of $205,000.

The average numbers of days an existing home spent on the market before closing in 2013 was 86 days, a decrease of nine days when compared to 2012’s average of 95 days and a decrease of two weeks when compared to 2011’s 101 days. Since tracking began, the lowest average days on the market of 26 days was recorded in 2004. The recording of 101 average days on the market in 2011 is a historic high for this statistic. The average days on the market in the Hampton Roads region has increased nearly an average of seven days per year since 2004. Looking into 2014, all key indicators point towards growth. For the first time since 2009, the existing homes for sale count has increased from the year prior. All four quarters of 2013 recorded increases in existing home sales. Supporting the growth trend, the year 2013 ended with a 15.6% increase in under contract home sales when compared to the end of 2012. Though there is no guarantee that all homes under contracts will advance to closings, this percentage is large enough to set the tone for gains in the residential real estate market early in 2014.

ABOUT THE DATA: The underlying data the resale home closing statistics are based upon is the collection of those closings belonging to Real Estate Information Network, Inc. (REIN) members only. The data for each sales transaction was input by hand and therefore may contain some errors at the individual home sale level. But, as a collection, this data represents the timeliest and most accurate dataset of resale homes for the entire Hampton Roads region. The strength of the dataset lies within its proximity to origin and depth. The MLS (Multiple Listing Service) data is considered the deepest of any resale home database due to the sheer number of rich data fields within the database and the information contained within. The information is also being keyed by either the actual listing agent or administrative staff of the same real estate firm. The combination of these two key elements allows the MLS data to be more precise than many other information repositories and vastly timelier. But, MLS data does have weaknesses. Most notably is the portion of the dataset at the edges of the MLS’s boundaries. Usually, MLS membership wanes around the borders of the coverage area, due to overlapping MLS’s. In such overlap areas, any given real estate broker may choose to join only one of the two or more MLS’s that cover the particular area. For the local MSA and the region covered by REIN, this translates into less than ideal accountability for sales in North Carolina, Northern Neck areas of Virginia, and the Williamsburg area. As for REIN, it is an independent MLS owned by broker stockholder members. Currently, there are approximately 500 real estate firms with over 5,800 real estate agents serving the entire Hampton Roads region.

General Overview he Norfolk-Virginia Beach-Newport News Apartment Report, published by Real Data, is a detailed analysis of the rental market within conventional apartment communities in the Hampton Roads region. The area has been divided into nine submarkets: Chesapeake, Hampton, Newport News, Norfolk, Portsmouth, Suffolk, Virginia Beach, Williamsburg and York. Combined, these areas contain a survey base of over 95,000 units within conventional apartment communities of 50 or more units each. The region is divided into two portions by the James River. The Peninsula area is north of the James River and contains Hampton, Newport News, Williamsburg, and York. The Southside area is south of the James River and contains Chesapeake, Norfolk, Portsmouth, Suffolk, and Virginia Beach. The cities with the highest concentration of units are Virginia Beach and Newport News, which accounts for nearly one half of the regionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s apartment units. The Hampton Roads apartment market has remained stable over the past five years with a current occupancy rate of 93.4% as of the fourth quarter of 2013 compared to a five year average of 93.5%. Occupancy rates are forecast to dip slightly in 2014 as new supply comes on-line.

Development activity continues to gain momentum to meet demand for rental housing, especially in the urban core areas. As of October 2013, there were 3,632 units under construction, which is a record high. This equates to a 3.8% growth rate in supply over the next 12 to 18 months which is a manageable rate given the current level of demand for apartments. The average quoted rental rate is $952, with one-bedroom rents averaging $850 per month, two-bedroom units averaging $959 per month, and three-bedroom units reporting an average rental rate of $1,133 per month. Average rental rates from existing inventory increased by only $6.81 in the last twelve months. Although the area did not see any significant drop in rents during the recession of 2008 to 2010, which other cities experienced, rent growth in the Hampton Roads region has been minimal especially when compared to rent growth of other cities over the past two years.

2014 Hampton Roads Real Estate Market Review

Historical Apartment Development Development of apartment units in this market peaked during two time periods, the early 1970s and the late 1980s. The current five year period is projected to see the highest level of development activity since the peak of 1985 to 1989. Although current development activity is being slowed by tighter lending restrictions, there are over 3,000 units expected to come on line within the next 18 months. There are another 2,700 units in some level of planning, many of which are waiting to secure financing.

Multifamily permit activity, which includes rental and for-sale units, surged from 2002 to 2005 and surged again in 2011 to 2013. Total multifamily development in 2013 nearly eclipsed the peak of development that occurred in 2005. The current development wave is being led by multifamily rentals, whereas development in 2005 was fueled by the for sale housing market.

The area experienced record levels for demand in 2013 with nearly 2,500 units absorbed. Demand in 2013 was strongest in the Virginia Beach, Newport News, and Chesapeake submarkets. Although the outlook for rental demand is expected to remain strong for the next several years, household formation and job growth is the ultimate driver for housing demand and a rebounding job market will be needed to sustain demand for the long term.

Most submarkets experienced a modest improvement in vacancies over the past year. Hampton Roads historically has maintained a relatively healthy vacancy rate even in weak economic cycles due to the strong and consistent demand from the military bases for rental housing in the area.

REGIONAL TRENDS ROANOKE Roanoke has fewer than 10,000 conventional apartment units among communities of at least 30 units. Roanokeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s apartment market coped better than most markets during the past recession. This was due in large part to the fact that there has been minimal new suburban apartment development in Roanoke over the past several years. Recent development activity has been focused on redevelopment of older commercial/ industrial buildings into rental apartments in and around the downtown area. Occupancy rates in 2013 reached 95.4% with rent averaging $714 per month.

RICHMOND Richmond has over 60,000 conventional apartment units within communities of at least 50 units. The areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s apartments hit bottom in the fourth quarter of 2009 and first quarter of 2010 when occupancies fell to 90% and rents declined by (-3.5%) for the year. Since that time Richmond has seen a strong resurgence in rental demand and occupancies reached 93% in 2013. Rents also showed modest growth over the past year with rents now averaging $907 per month. Developers remain focused on the downtown areas of Richmond with 27 projects underway or planned in the urban core

2014 COMMERCIAL INVESTMENT

General Overview Commercial real estate showed signs of continued recovery in 2013 across all metrics. Vacancy rates across all property types decreased in 2013 and were substantially lower than their peaks during the recent recession. Interest rates remain near historic lows, and investors and lenders continue to show more confidence in the real estate sector. Raymond Torto, Ph.D., CRE, Global Chairman for CBRE Research, recently declared, “Commercial real estate is in a sweet spot right now. It is a highly sought after asset class with improving fundamentals, and for leveraged buyers, a big positive arbitrage”. While the economy still faces headwinds with uncertainty in our nation’s capital, rising health care costs, and other economic factors, tailwinds have been increasing from solid corporate financials, improving housing markets, and improving credit availability and accessibility. National sales transactions for office, industrial, retail, and multifamily assets increased by nearly 20% year-overyear in 2013 and continued a steady annual increase since 2009 when the post-recession recovery began. The chart below shows that sales volume exceeded $350 billion in 2013.

Within Hampton Roads, 2013 proved to be a successful year in the investment sales market. CBRE tracked approximately $375 million in sales of assets $5 million or more in the office, industrial, retail, and multifamily property types. Multifamily represented 76% of total sales transactions. This total of sales excludes portfolio acquisitions with assets inside and outside of the Hampton Roads market. The largest individual sale transaction in the Hampton Roads market in 2013 was the sale of the Bon Secours Health Center, a medical office asset, in Suffolk, Virginia, for approximately $46.5 million.

The health of the commercial real estate industry begins with the health of the overall U.S. economy. The below chart illustrates that the national economy as measured by Gross Domestic Product (GDP) has grown in 17 of the past 18 quarters. The painful reductions in employment experienced during 2008 and 2009 have begun to dissipate, particularly in higher growth industries such as technology, energy, and health care.

Even with the sustained positive trend in the economy, job growth has proven difficult and still has not returned more jobs in the four years of recovery than were lost during the two year recession. The below chart shows the relative comparison of job growth since 2010 versus the sharp and painful declines experienced during 2008 and 2009.

While job growth remains a critical measure of real estate market performance, this report will focus on four other factors which help buoy the interest and optimism today in commercial real estate investment.

2014 COMMERCIAL INVESTMENT

1. REAL ESTATE AS AN ASSET CLASS GETTING MORE INVESTMENT FOCUS Commercial real estate continues to be a highly sought after asset class relative to stocks and bonds. With improving fundamentals across all property types and limited new development, real estate is projected to remain a favorable investment class. The yield on traditional fixed income instruments remains near historical lows, and there are concerns of downside risk to bonds in the likely event of rises in interest rates. While stocks posted a phenomenal return in calendar year 2013, that return was more than double their 10-year average, and there are some concerns that stocks could be at bubble-level valuations. As the graph below prepared by CBRE Global Research and Consulting shows, commercial real estate continues to post strong returns compared to other asset classes, particularly over a 10-year period. Leveraged real property returns have been over 12% on annualized basis over the last 10 years per the NCREIF Property Index.

Institutional investors now believe they are under-invested in real estate which could result in greater capital flows into the sector in 2014. According to Cornell Universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2013 Institutional Real Estate Allocations Monitor Survey, institutional portfolios are 8.8% invested in real estate, nearly 100 basis points below their average target real estate allocation of 9.8%. A shift in institutional investment choices towards more real estate will help buoy the demand side of the equation for commercial sales.

2. IMPROVING LENDING ENVIRONMENT HELPS BUYERS MAKE MORE DEALS The improving economy and fundamentals across all property types have played a significant role as lenders have showed a willingness to lend on properties in smaller markets and to all five major commercial property types. Borrowers have also been very cognizant that we are still blessed with a historicallylow interest rate environment. Source: Federal Reserve Economic Data

Commercial Mortgage Backed Security (CMBS) loans are non-recourse commercial real estate loans which provide a very important service to both borrowers and lenders in commercial real estate transactions. CMBS loans provide borrowers access to the large fixed income capital markets, often with non-recourse, fixed rate, and higher loan-to-value terms that are more advantageous than those available from traditional banks or insurance companies. For lenders, the CMBS structure allows loans to be moved off of the originator’s balance sheet which helps create more opportunity for additional lending that meets standard underwriting criteria.

Dramatic Increase in CMBS Issuance

2014 COMMERCIAL INVESTMENT

CMBS issuance surpassed $85 billion in 2013, a 78% increase from the $48.4 billion in issuance recorded in 2012. According to a recent National Real Estate Investor article entitled, “CMBS Lenders Start Year on Optimistic Note”, some industry experts expect CMBS volume will reach the $110 to $120 billion range in 2014 which would be another annual increase of 30% or more.

3. INVESTORS MORE WILLING TO INVEST IN SECONDARY MARKETS With most primary national markets having substantially or fully recovered in pricing relative to the 2007 peak, investor interest has shifted more towards secondary and tertiary metropolitan markets. Investor sentiment has moved from preferring only gateway markets to a broader set of leading markets nationally as investors have started seeking higher yield. As seen to the left, 2013 sales prices are closer to the 2007 peaks across all property types in major markets, while pricing in secondary and tertiary markets has been climbing less dramatically. Investors will tend to focus on assets located in markets (primary or otherwise) where demographics and job growth are most favorable and with high quality properties with strong credit tenants.

4. INVESTORS ARE WILLING TO TAKE ON MORE RISK Investors have become more and more comfortable with the economic outlook and have shown a much greater appetite for risk within both primary and other markets. Pricing for high grade core assets has recovered substantially causing investors to search for higher returns by taking on more risk. The graph to the right, prepared by Cornell University’s Baker Program in Real Estate, shows approximately 60% of institutions pursued higher-yield value-add or opportunistic strategies in 2013, well above the 43% of institutions who focused on lower-yield and less risky core strategies.

CONCLUSION Randy Anderson, Ph. D., Head of Americas Research for CBRE, recently stated, “Economic momentum will prompt continued improvements in property market fundamentals, increase capital availability and fuel property transactions in 2014”. Commercial real estate has established itself as a sound and strategic investment class, and we expect investment volumes to continue to rise both in Hampton Roads and across all national markets with all of the exciting factors underway that have been discussed in this report.
