The Indy industrial market continued to grow this quarter. Net absorption has already surpassed last year’s total and completed construction is closing in on last year’s total.
Finance and insurance driving expansions and relocations in the market
As of third quarter, metro employment in the finance and insurance industries finally approached pre-recession levels.
The office market saw substantial leasing activity from firms like Ally Financial which recently relocated 150 employees to the Shoreview Corporate Center with plans to add another 250 jobs by 2017.
Other firms like One Beacon Insurance Group, Securian Financial Group, Travelers Companies, and General Casualty Company have either invested in new space or absorbed existing space in all corners of the Minneapolis-St. Paul market.
Grand Action, a non-profit organization made of the city’s wealthiest benefactors, led the way on three major projects that, starting in the 1990s, transformed downtown Grand Rapids. The
Minneapolis CBD leads in large leasing deals
Vacancy rates in Minneapolis CBD continue their trend of shrinking every quarter. Vacancy at IDS Center declined 250 basis points since 2014 and the building now has its lowest quarterly vacancy in recent years. The demand for premium downtown office space is substantial and even co-working firms are getting in on the craze. Recently, two shared-space companies out of Chicago, Industrious and Assemble, leased a collective 36,000 sf with plans to rent out collaborative workspace to entrepreneurs and small firms by end of year.
Leasing activity and tenant demand in Cleveland looks quite strong. Office employment sectors have recorded sustained jobs growth over the last three years, which is translating into increased tenant demand.
Downtown Detroit is beginning to show its credit worthiness to the capital markets. With interest rates at all time lows but expected to rise in the near future, investors are looking to take advantage.
After increasing in July, the local labor market contracted by 2,000 workers in August. Along with that employment held flat, still near a historic high. As a result, unemployment edged down 40 basis points to 3.3 percent.
The size of the local labor force declined by 32,000 workers in August. That contraction caused the unemployment rate to decline 40 basis points to 5.7 percent.
According to the most recent estimates from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, total nonfarm employment in Detroit stood at ~2.0 million payrolls, representing an annualized increase of 45,200 jobs or 2.4 percent. Meanwhile, unemployment decreased 2.7 percentage points year-over-year to 6.2 percent.
Total net absorption across the metro equaled 322,977 square feet in the third quarter, a welcome change from the negative absorption posted in each of the previous two quarters.
Detroit’s economy added 46,900 net new jobs over the last year, representing a 2.5 percent increase. With steady employment gains across the metro, look for further improvement in Detroit’s office and industrial property sectors.
Manufactured goods constitute 90 percent of Illinois exports and roughly half of the state’s manufacturing output. Last year Chicago area companies accounted for over two thirds of the $68.3 billion worth of exports that originated in Illinois. Metro exports have exhibited steady improvement over the past five years growing by an average of $3.8 billion annually as manufacturing user demand followed suit.
Roughly 60 percent of Chicago’s exports were sent to countries with existing free trade agreements in place. According to the Department of Commerce members of the proposed Trans-Pacific Partnership imported $28.7 billion worth of products from Chicagoland last year. Should TPP move forward escalating trade volumes are likely to impact the local industrial market.

Investing In The US As A Canadian… And How To Do It RIGHT!! (feat. Erwin Szet...Volition Properties
=== Investing In The US As A Canadian… And How To Do It RIGHT!! (feat. Erwin Szeto) ===
Ever been curious about Real Estate Investing in the US?? At Volition, for the past 14 years, we have been focused on helping investors invest in over $250M of real estate and generate $100M of wealth in the Toronto market, but we are always open to learning more about other business models and learning from other investors.
The US has always been an intriguing market to invest in. But the US is a big place… if you’re interested in investing in the US, you probably have a lot of questions, like:
☑️ Specifically WHERE should you invest?
☑️ What are the best markets to invest in and why?
☑️ How much are property prices there?
☑️ What are the returns like?
☑️ What is cashflow like?
☑️ Compared to investing in Toronto or other cities in Ontario, what are the benefits / tradeoffs?
☑️ What ownership structure should I use?
☑️ What are the tax implications?
☑️ Can I get financing?
☑️ What are tenants like?
Enter Erwin Szeto, a longtime friend of Volition. Since 2005, Erwin Szeto and his team have navigated the challenging landscape of being landlords in Ontario. Now, they are shifting their focus and guiding their clients' investments toward the more landlord-friendly environment of the USA. This decision comes after assisting Canadian clients in transacting over $440,000,000 in income properties. Faced with issues like affordability constraints, tenant-friendly laws, rent control, and rental licensing in Canada, Erwin sees a clear opportunity in the U.S. Here, there is a significant influx of investments leading to the creation of high-paying manufacturing jobs. Erwin and his clients are poised to capitalize on these opportunities where landlord rights are stronger and there is no rent control.
To facilitate this transition, Erwin has partnered with and become a client of SHARE, a one-stop-shop U.S. Asset Manager. Founded by Canadians for Canadians, SHARE enables as passive an ownership experience as possible for landlords in the U.S., while still maintaining direct, 100% ownership.

• Nearly 6,000 jobs were shed in the most recent monthly data from the BLS.
Year-over-year job growth was 0.5% and Milwaukee’s unemployment is
currently 5.6 percent, down 120 basis points from the same period a year
earlier as nearly 7,500 people left the labor force during that timespan.
• The office-using sectors added 3,900 jobs year-over-year in the most recent
monthly data from the BLS, led by the financial activities and professional and
business services sectors. The industrial-using sectors shed 400 jobs year-
over-year.
• Total U.S. nonfarm employment increased by 223,000 jobs in April, a healthy
uptick after a disappointing March where job gains totaled just 85,000. The
strong April results will help lower concerns among economists and Wall
Street of a hiring slowdown.
• U.S. unemployment decreased 10 basis points to 5.4 percent, its lowest mark
since May 2008. Wages also continued to trend in the right direction in April,
increasing 2.2 percent year-over-year.
Employment Update
Metro Milwaukee | May 2015
Number of jobs
Employment growth in the Milwaukee metro area has been subdued with less
than 3,000 jobs added on a year-over-year basis. Total employment is currently
17,600 jobs shy of its all-time high of 786,549 reached in October of 2014.
Despite sluggish job growth, both the office and industrial markets are quite
active, and companies across multiple sectors of the economy are expanding,
including those in the financial services, IT and manufacturing sectors. A recent
report by BMO Harris predicts that Wisconsin’s jobless rate will fall to 4.9
percent this year; the report notes that the region is benefitting from the current
low gas prices but the strong dollar has a dampening effect, particularly on
exports.
Multiple large industrial lease deals completed during Q1 2015 have illuminated
the dwindling supply of available, existing inventory. With more than 2 million
square feet of speculative inventory either planned or under construction,
developers sense the timing is right to capitalize on scarcity. On the office side,
Milwaukee’s urban core is attracting new residents and office tenants.
Developers are repositioning functionally obsolete office buildings into
alternative uses which is taking pressure off of the downtown office market and
uncovering value for obsolete office product.
