Acknowledging this area’s growth has been founded on the success of the oil and gas industry, many businesses will be adjusting their strategies to account for lower oil prices. Slower economic growth will be apparent in Edmonton, in the near term, as the market adapts. Accompanied with approximately 3 msf of new supply coming online in late 2015, the question that bears to be asked, “who will fill the space?” Land values are expected to remain at current levels, which will leave construction and labour cost reductions as a main focus for costs savings in future developments. Cushman & Wakefield Edmonton TD Tower 10088 – 102 Avenue, Suite 2700 Edmonton, Alberta T5J 2Z1 www.cushmanwakefield.com/knowledge 3.4% $9.54 $10.00 Edmonton and surrounding area saw high volumes of industrial transactions throughout Q4. The optimism was carried right through to the end of December, even though oil prices dropped continually throughout the quarter. The overall vacancy rate was almost a full percentage point lower than one year ago, at 2.4%. With available space increasing by only 78,000 square feet (sf) this quarter, competition was high as businesses vied for limited space. OUTLOOK Y-O-Y CHANGE OVERALL NET RENTAL RATES VS. VACANCY RATES MARKET OVERVIEW Net asking rates were up 15.3% versus one year ago. The highest net asking rates continue to be in Leduc/Nisku, as businesses see this market as prime location. Other locations have seen a slight increase in rental rates and vacancy. The total new supply added in 2014 accumulated to just over 1.1 million square feet (msf) of industrial space. Q4 2014 1.5 Alberta’s economic performance has remained strong in the last quarter of 2014 despite the fall of oil prices. The continuing strength of the provincial economy can be attributed to the capital already committed in the oil sands and other major projects throughout the province. Agri-food exporters have also contributed to the economic growth in Alberta, as the weaker Canadian Dollar is working in their favour. Alberta closed the year with a real GDP growth of 3.4%. The inflation rate in the province dropped from 3% to 2% in November 2014, while the unemployment rate remained steady at 4.5% in the fourth quarter of 2014. An interesting statistic came from the Labour Force Survey, it recorded 5,700 new jobs in Alberta during December. This number is consistent with the monthly average over the year. psf/yr ECONOMIC OVERVIEW For more information, contact: Cushman & Wakefield Industrial 780 420 1177 [email protected] 2013 The market terms and definitions in this report are based on NAIOP standards.
