 ECONOMIC OVERVIEW The November unemployment rate of 4.8% for the Bethesda-Rockville-Frederick metropolitan division, remains well below Maryland’s rate of 6.9%. Year-over-year, jo b gains remain centered around the public sector, and education and health services. The manufacturing sector continues to bleed jobs, losing over three thousand since November 2 007. INCREASED ACTIVITY FOR SALES AND LEASING Year-to-date leasing activity grew by almost 29.0% compared to the one million square feet (ms f) recorded for 2010. At 1.4 msf, leasing activity was closer to the level of activity in 2009 but far from the 2.1 msf of transactions recorded for 2007. Notable new deals for t he year included: A&M Supply’s lease of 102,000 sf of warehouse space at 9821 Fallard Court, TSI’s prelease of 69,000 sf of warehouse space at 8520 Pepco Place (a build-to-suit property) and the GSA’s lease of 51,158 sf at 6500 Sheriff Road. Sales activity finished the year with almost 1 .3 msf traded, a 77.0% increase from last year’s number. Investor sales accounted for1.0 msf of the total, indicating increased confidence in the Suburban Maryland industrial market. ABSORPTION TURNED POSITIVE Despite a poor showing in the flex sector, total overall net absorption finished 2011with 108,795 square feet (sf) of p ositive absorption, a considerable improvement over the nega tive 151,345 sf reported for 2010. This turnaround was due to a bo ost in warehouse/distribution activity which closed the year with a total of 179,410 sf of positive overall net absorption. Notable tenants who moved in during the fourth quarter included Microfit (41,800 sf) at 10726 Tucker Street and 1-800-Rack Pack (29,823 sf) at 8420 Westphalia Road. OUTLOOK The flex market continues to struggle with vacancies, and little new tenant activity. Rents have continued to be compressed due to lack of demand. The average direct net rental rate for flex space in Prince George’s County, $9.55 per square foot (psf), declined by $0.14 psf from one year ago and has not reached double-digits since the second quarter of 2010. The warehouse/distribution sect or remains fairly s trong. There are only four class A grade spaces over 24' clear available, with 77,000 sf being the largest availabil ity. Two spec warehouse projects are under construction and should be leased by the end of 2012. There are several re-development projects that are expected to fill the class A pool later in 2012 or early 2013.
