1. The Office Conundrum
Office and commercial space.
Prediction that in four years we'll be back to pre-pandemic levels in commercial real estate.
Many businesses are going hybrid today.
Culver City is a hot market due to the tech and science industry.
Office market has picked up over all within the last month or so.
Law offices. Lawyers want their own private office but will only come in three days a week. Need a place to train new associates.
2. Industrial Trends
Asher Luzzatto was the host moderator.
Asher Luzzatto: Industrial space has been converted to creative commercial space.
Mike Condon: Industrial is doing great. We're leasing triple net no concessions.
Lisa Reddy: Industrial vacancy rates incredibly low.
Phillip Bond: Market is very strong for industrial in the LA region.
Asher Luzzatto: Revitalization from older industrial to creative commercial. Evidence of this in Santa Monica near the airport.
Phillip Bond: Building is very expensive today. Land prices are astronomical. Construction costs are high. Construction labor is high if you can find it.
Everyone is very positive on industrial industry. Out of scale of 1-10, they are 10, 5-6.
Mike Condon: 14 on scale of 1 to 10. Covid accelerated transition to ecommerce. The problem is NIMBYs.
3. Development Trends
Host, Moderator: Kofi N Nartey: What changes have you seen?
Ted Hyman: People want authentic space, creative space, science space.
Lawrence Taylor: I work only Westside. TOC density provisions for transportation has allowed us to see redevelopment. We've always had strong demand. Seismic ordinance shows 80% of apartment bldgs in danger of collapse. Opportunity to replace, repair, rebuild the Westside.
Valente: Wouldn't have expected to see SFRs being built to rent.
Kofi: What response to pandemic downturn are you seeing?
Lawrence Taylor. We recover first and higher than other cities. One of the most high demand locations in the world. LA has resilience.
Valente: People now want work from home, other amenities in their home. Development along the Gold line looks good.
Kofi: Sustainable development?
Hyman: Green building costs the same just about as regular development. It makes sense to build green.
Alex Valente: One building has 20% delinquency, other has zero (because of pandemic eviction moratorium). They are very close to each other in downtown Los Angeles.
Taylor: Three most important factors are location, location, location. LA is the best location. Most buy and hold. They don't sell. We are value bought and not value add. We have a waiting list of investors who want to invest. The deals are out there. People are dying every day (only way someone sells good real estate is when they die).
Kofi: Technology and properties?
Taylor: Air filtration, smart apps controlling systems, electric car charging stations, security gates. Basically security, health and safety.
Kofi: What projects are you working on now? How are they different than five years ago?
Ted Hyman: We're focused on positive impact, sustainability and justice and equity component.
Kofi: What is justice and equity?
Hyman: It starts with ourselves. We're working on that now. We're bringing in programs to buildings getting kids in some areas interested in science, jobs.
Taylor: We're only buying buildings we can replace with seismic safe housing. We don't believe in enclosed shopping malls.
Alex Valente: Required yield for investors was 5.5-6% cap rate yield to make pencil. Under 5 cap rate. It's come down.
