The Charlotte area continues to attract newcomers to the<br />

market every year. One of the driving factors is the airport,<br />

which accommodates 700 flights daily. Other factors include<br />

the proximity to the mountains and beaches, as well as the<br />

accessibility to major cities along the East Coast. Nine<br />

Fortune 500 companies call the region home. Many<br />

businesses are relocating or expanding in the area including<br />

Time Warner, Celgard and Fifth Third Bank.<br />

The overall vacancy in the office market increased from<br />

17.1% to 17.9% over the past year. In Ballantyne Corporate<br />

Park, the Bissell Companies continue to defy odds and are<br />

under construction with three speculative buildings totaling<br />

790,000 SF. The three premier submarkets in Charlotte;<br />

Downtown, Southpark and Ballantyne, continue to attract the<br />

majority of newer, high-end tenants.<br />

The industrial market has puttered along in recent years.<br />

Thankfully, supply has been extremely limited resulting in the<br />

vacancy rate hovering around 14% for the last 10 quarters.<br />

Most of the moves have been within the market versus<br />

companies moving to the region. Several build-to-suit<br />

prospects are considering sites in the region. However, there<br />

is not enough demand, nor is the financing attractive enough<br />

to get developers to consider building speculative buildings.<br />

After rising for three years, retail vacancies finally improved<br />

a modest 0.3%. Some of the larger shopping centers traded<br />

hands and the new owners were able to entice tenants by<br />

lowering lease rates. Generous concessions have been<br />

offered throughout the area. The market is waiting to see<br />

whether or not Childress Klein and General Growth Properties<br />

are able to pull off the development of the 1,300,000 SF<br />

Bridges of Mint Hill.<br />

The investment business continued to improve from an<br />

anemic 2008 and 2009. High profile properties in each asset<br />

class traded hands, with multifamily leading the way. Investor<br />

demand pushed multifamily cap rates to the 5.5% to 6.0%<br />

range. Class A office, industrial and retail properties traded<br />

between 7% and 8%.<br />

The Piedmont Triad market is slowly emerging from the<br />

economic downturn. The biggest news in the region is the<br />

announcement of a $426 million Caterpillar manufacturing<br />

facility in eastern Forsyth County, employing 510 people in<br />

an 850,000 SF facility in <strong>2012</strong>. In addition, TIMCO Aerosystems<br />

opened an aircraft seat manufacturing plant employing 500<br />

in northern Davidson County in November, 2011.<br />

The Piedmont Triad industrial market saw an improvement<br />

in 2011, however industrial vacancies remain high with<br />

distribution center space over 200,000 SF exceeding<br />

6,000,000 SF. Flex space is also very soft with vacancies<br />

exceeding 20% and rental rates falling. Increased demand<br />

for warehouse space between 20,000 and 40,000 SF is the<br />

lone bright spot in the $3.00 to $3.50 range.<br />

The retail sector has shown marginal improvement in 2011.<br />

Rents continue to decline, but there are active prospects<br />

looking in the market. Restaurant and convenience store<br />

activity has been brisk. Big box and grocery anchored shopping<br />

center developments are non-existent.<br />

The office market followed other market segments, with no<br />

net absorption in 2011. Activity is emerging, with 30,000<br />

to100,000 SF deals touring the market with <strong>2012</strong> space<br />

requirements. Vacancy is over 20% in all suburban markets.<br />

Downtown areas have vacancy rates approaching 7% for<br />

Class A space, but rental rates and lending requirements<br />

make new construction difficult.<br />

Infrastructure improvements bode well for the future of<br />

the region. Expansion of a third runway and major road<br />

improvements have resulted in a $300 million FedEx<br />

Mid-Atlantic hub opening at the airport and a 400,000 SF<br />

FedEx Ground sorting facility in Kernersville. Honda Jet has<br />

opened a headquarters and R&D facility at the Airport.<br />

Honda recently announced 417 new jobs in an $80 million<br />

maintenance facility to be located adjacent to its headquarters.<br />

Public sector investment is strong, with UNC-G and NC<br />

A&T universities completing a $60 million center for<br />

Nanotechnology in east Greensboro. Growth continues in<br />

Winston-Salem, with significant expansions at Wake Forest<br />

Baptist and the center for regenerative medicine.<br />
