LA Records Net Move-Outs and Declining Occupancy in 2010’s
2nd Quarter, But Quarterly Rent Change Turns a Corner
Like other Southern California metros,
Los Angeles saw apartment demand
stumble during 2nd quarter. However,
annual absorption remained above
completion volumes, so occupancy
tracked upward on a year-over-year
basis. Thanks to a small quarterly
increase in pricing, annual rent
reductions are being reined in. Mild
improvements seem likely for both
occupancy and rents during the
coming year.

Demand Hits a Snag in 2010’s 2nd
Quarter
Apartment demand in the Los Angeles area
faltered during the April-June time frame,
falling short of the metro’s performance
posted over the previous couple of quarters
and running counter to the substantial
absorption tallies realized in most other
locales across the country during 2nd
quarter. The metro’s large supply of older
inventory, which had been capturing a
significant share of new leases, recorded
substantial net move-outs in 2nd quarter.
And, since this resident loss occurred at the
same time that another wave of new supply
was completed, occupancy slipped a bit.
The lone bright spot in the performance
results seen specifically during 2nd quarter
was in rent change. After seven quarters of
flat or declining prices, rental rates actually
increased during the quarter, reducing
annual backtracking for effective rents to a
fairly small number.
Taking a closer look at recent absorption
figures in Los Angeles, the occupied
apartment count fell by 2,210 units during
the April-June period, sliding after five
quarters of positive results. Earlier
demand still left absorption on the plus
side at 2,880 units during 2010’s first half
and at 14,280 apartments during the
year-ending June.
Unlike the pattern seen for all product,
demand in Los Angeles’ stock of units built
since 2000 proved slightly positive during
2nd quarter. Apartment renter households
-20k
absorbed 450 units during the April-June
time frame, mostly reflecting leasing activity

at recent completions, taking demand in

specifically, but they realized substantial demand on an annual basis.

Los Angeles Apartment Report
A large block of the metro’s annual demand tally registered in the Hollywood, Intown LA, San
Fernando Valley and Long Beach submarkets. These four neighborhoods combined to absorb
12,380 units during the year-ending mid-2010, accounting for nearly 90 percent of the metro’s
total demand. Most other locales recorded demand for about 600 to 1,000 apartments. The
only submarket that experienced apartment resident loss during the past year was East Los
Angeles, which saw net move-outs from 1,890 units.
Apartment demand results in metro LA during the year-ending mid-2010 was influenced by
three general story lines that focus on the return of renters from the shadow market, shifting
conditions in the for-sale sector, and rent cuts. The return of households from the shadow
market is a pattern being seen nationwide,
reflecting that numerous households who
opted for alternative rentals have ended up
in product that fell into foreclosure or was
sold in late 2009/early 2010 and that others
have missed the superior levels
characteristic of apartment product under
professional management. In addition,
traditional apartments are likely benefiting to
at least a small degree from households
leaving foreclosed homes and moving
directly into apartments. Furthermore, the
price cuts seen throughout most of greater
Los Angeles’ locales up through the
beginning of 2nd quarter have helped
position apartments favorably relative to
other housing options.
Also obviously impacting what has
happened in the apartment sector is the
condition of the local job market.
Preliminary figures from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) showed that greater Los
Angeles lost 69,500 jobs in the year-ending May. Recent layoffs translated to a 1.8-percent
contraction of the metro’s job base. However, encouraging month-to-month statistics show
positive employment change returning to LA. As of May, the job count was up by 69,500
positions from the bottom point seen in January. (Temporary Census Bureau positions and
other jobs in the Federal Government sector accounted for about 20 percent of these
additions.) Looking at annual job change by category in Los Angeles during the year-ending
May, downsizing proved particularly pronounced in the Manufacturing, Construction, Trade,
and Professional and Business Services sectors. In contrast, meaningful growth was
recorded in the Information sector, due to a big bump in the Motion Picture subcategory.
Single-family home sales in the Los Angeles area have shown some momentum recently.
According to information from DataQuick, sales across the metro during the year-ending June
2010 topped 82,600 units, up 14 percent from the total seen in the year-ending June 2009.
Increased home sales numbers are a double-edged sword for the apartment sector. For right
now, the overall impact seems to be positive, since sales are decreasing the inventory of
shadow market rentals, leaving fewer alternatives to conventional apartment product. Over
time, however, the impact of increased sales should turn negative, as the number of apartment
renters lost to purchase will exceed the block of households returning from the shadow market
option to traditional apartments.
While single-family home prices in LA have made some progress recently, they still register
notably under the levels seen before the housing bust. The National Association of Realtors
reported that the local median single-family home price as of 1st quarter 2010 came in at

$331,400. While up 9 percent from the level recorded in 1st quarter 2009, prices as of mid2010 were 44 percent lower than the standard price of nearly $600,000 in 2007. Typical
pricing in Los Angeles as of early 2010 remained well above the rates for the West region of
the country ($210,200) and the nation as a whole ($166,100).
Builders appropriately continue to cut back on the number of single-family home starts in LA.
Permits were issued for only 2,219 new single-family homes during the year-ending May 2010,
with that figure 4 percent below the tally recorded in the year-ending May 2009.

New apartment additions in the Los Angeles
area totaled 1,856 units during 2010’s 2nd
quarter. This quarterly tally brought
completions for the first six months of the
year to 2,501 apartments and took additions
during the year-ending June to 4,369 units.
Annual deliveries as of mid-2010 were only
about half as much as the peak seen in the
most recent cycle – just over 9,200 units as
of early 2009. The annual apartment sum
was set to drop even further, but condo
projects that changed course to become
rentals came into play: nearly 20 percent of
metro Los Angeles’ new apartment units
finished during the past year were initially
slated to be for-sale product.
For some regional perspective, Los Angeles
received 33 percent of the roughly 13,300
units delivered in Southern California during
the year-ending June 2010. Also
contributing to the region’s new apartment
tally, Orange County added approximately
4,000 units, the Inland Empire received
about 2,500 new apartments, and San
Diego’s apartment stock expanded by
roughly 2,300 units.
Looking at Los Angeles’ submarkets, nearly
50 percent of the apartments delivered
during the year-ending mid-2010 came
online in the neighboring trio of Intown Los
Angeles (1,129 units), Hollywood (608
apartments) and West Los Angeles (413
units).
New deliveries in the greater LA area during
the past 12 months translated to a 0.4percent inventory growth rate, with this
increase bringing the existing unit base to
1,029,621 units as of June. This annual expansion was slightly less than the average yearly
growth pace of 0.5 percent posted in LA over the past five years.

Apartment Occupancy Stumbled in Recent Months
As of mid-2010, occupancy in metro Los Angeles’ apartment market registered at 94 percent,
0.4 points lower than the rate seen in early 2010. Progress seen earlier, however, brought the
2nd quarter 2010 occupancy reading a slight 0.1 point above the late 2009 showing and a full
percentage point ahead of the June 2009 figure.

slip meaningfully (2.5 points) during the

about 55 percent as of 2nd quarter.

June 2010 occupancy in Los Angeles
topped the rates recorded for the U.S. as a
whole (93.4 percent) and matched the West
region norm (94 percent). (National and
regional results are preliminary readings,
but with nearly 5 million units included in the
country’s preliminary findings, final results
are unlikely to shift to a meaningful degree.)
Compared to the mid-2010 occupancy
showings of its immediate neighbors, LA’s
performance was just below the 94.2
percent rate seen in both the Inland Empire
and Orange County and more significantly
under San Diego’s 95.4 percent occupancy
figure.
On a submarket level, June occupancy topped the 95 percent mark in a trio of neighborhoods:
Long Beach (95.6 percent), Hollywood (95.2 percent) and the San Gabriel Valley (95.1

percent). Recording occupancy between roughly 94 and 95 percent were the West Los
Angeles, San Fernando Valley, South Bay Cities, and Tri Cities submarkets. At the bottom end
of the performance spectrum, occupancy stood at 91.4 percent in the suburban Santa Clarita
Valley area.
Occupancy shifts in Los Angeles’ submarkets were quite widespread for the quarterly as well
as on a year-over-year basis. Looking at quarterly change, the Long Beach and South Bay
Cities areas recorded notable improvements in occupancy between March and June. In Long
Beach, the mid-2010 rate came in 1.9 points higher than the early 2010 figure, while the South
Bay Cities submarket recorded a quarterly bump of 1.1 points. On the flip side, a few spots
saw occupancy ease at least during the three-month time span, with the downturns proving
most pronounced in the Intown Los Angeles (2.7 points), East Los Angeles (1.6 points) and Tri
Cities (1.5 points) locales.
Annually, Long Beach logged the region’s most improvement. Occupancy in this submarket
climbed 3 points between June 2009 and June 2010. Occupancy increases of roughly 2 points
were seen in the Intown LA, Hollywood and San Gabriel Valley locales. Only East Los Angeles
posted a year-over-year drop in occupancy, with the rate sliding 1.9 points.

Rent cuts certainly played a part in getting
apartment demand back on track in Los
Angeles during 2009 and the first few
months of 2010, and the fact that rents went
back into growth mode during the April-June
time frame may have had some influence
on the net move-outs that suddenly
emerged again. Looking at specific results,
effective rents in the metro ticked up by 0.2
percent during 2nd quarter. This quarterly
bump reduced LA’s annual pace of rent
decline to 1.1 percent, lots better than yearover-year loss that got as deep as 9.4
percent in fall 2009.

during the year-ending mid-2010, with that loss proving a little steeper than the 0.9-percent
reduction posted on the national front.
In comparison, the price of goods and services in the Los Angeles area increased by 0.9
percent between June 2009 and June 2010, as reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The
consumer price index as of mid-2010 for the U.S. as a whole registered at 1.1 percent.
Not surprisingly, the use of rent giveaways remained significant as of late in Los Angeles.
Discounts were reported for 44 percent of the apartment product surveyed by MPF Research in
2010’s 2nd quarter, with this figure up from the 34 percent level reported a year earlier. The
typical concession in the marketplace reduced effective rent achievement by roughly 10
percent.

In the Year-Ending June 2011, LA Likely Will Record Meaningful Demand
for Apartments, Improved Occupancy, and Positive Revenue Change
MPF Research Forecast
An improving job production picture in Los Angeles should help apartment demand come in at
a solid level during the year-ending 2nd quarter 2011. At the same time, deliveries will be
moderate, similar to the addition volume seen over the past year. This supply/demand outlook
points to upturns in both occupancy and
rents, though the anticipated pace of

The Pace of New Completions in Los Angeles
Should Slow Considerably in 2Q 2011
2k
Units
scheduled quarterly additions
One factor that is likely to influence
apartment demand during the coming year
is employment change, and the region’s
economic outlook should be nowhere near
as discouraging as the job base contraction
logged in the year-ending June 2010. In
fact, the metro, which is currently gaining
jobs on a month-to-month basis, is
expected to see the annual job change
figure in the coming year work its way into
positive territory. Looking at the forecasts
from various economic experts, MPF
Research is assuming that by mid-2011, the
job count in LA tops the mid-2010 figure by
some 30,000 to 40,000 positions.
Similar to the story seen during the past 12
months, apartment demand in the yearending June 2011 should be helped by the
continued bounceback of renters from
shadow market condos, townhomes and
single-family rental homes. Residents will
also likely be drawn to traditional
apartments by pricing that looks fairly
appealing relative to the rates for LA's other
housing choices.
Taking these factors into account, MPF
Research anticipates that apartment
absorption in the Los Angeles metro will
register at 8,100 units during the yearending 2nd quarter 2011.

This apartment demand forecast takes into
account that the metro’s single-family home

activity during the coming year, perhaps
pushing up the loss of apartment renters to
home purchase to a small degree.

Los Angeles Apartment Report
Looking at apartment stock growth, new completions in the Los Angeles area are slated to
come in at a fairly moderate level in the next year, with roughly 3,900 units under construction
as of July 2010. (That’s pretty similar to the 4,400 or so apartments were delivered in the yearending June 2010.) This block of new supply will grow the metro’s existing apartment stock by
0.4 percent during the next 12 months. In addition, there are currently 496 apartments under
construction with completion slated in the last half of 2011.
The bulk of the scheduled apartment deliveries in the year-ending mid-2011 are slated to come
online in a handful of locales. Nearly 90 percent of the next year’s supply in metro LA will be
delivered in the Hollywood (1,201 units), Tri Cities (828 units), San Fernando Valley (781 units)
and Intown Los Angeles (603 units) submarkets.
Looking beyond the product already underway in metro Los Angeles, there appears to be
basically nothing else at the starting gate. MPF Research hasn’t identified any planned
properties with start dates announced for the immediate future. However, when market
conditions began to deteriorate dramatically and financing availability froze during the past
cycle, developers put construction on hold for some 1,600 units that MPF Research was
tracking through the planning process, and it’s certainly possible that some of those projects
could resurface as market conditions reach firmer ground.
Multifamily permits across LA in 2010’s April-May time period registered at just 484 units, 57
percent below the volume authorized during the same two-month time period in 2009. For the
year-ending May 2010, authorizations totaled 2,852 multifamily units, trailing the year-earlier
figure by 48 percent.

and the Santa Clarita Valley (0.6 points).
Elsewhere in the metro, occupancy
increases of less than a half of a percentage point seem likely.
These anticipated occupancy shifts will result in June 2011 occupancy registering around 95
percent or better in a handful of LA’s neighborhoods. Leading the way, the San Gabriel Valley
is projected to be 95.8 percent full as of mid-2011. Occupancy should register at a similar 95.7
percent in Long Beach. Additionally, rates should come in around the 95 percent mark in
Hollywood (95.3 percent), West Los Angeles (95.3 percent) and the San Fernando Valley (94.5
percent). At the bottom end of the performance spectrum, occupancy is expected to register at
92 percent in the Santa Clarita Valley.

Given these tightened occupancy rates, apartment operators likely will be able to raise rents a
little, though the forecast occupancy performance does remain too low for much more than
slight pricing increases. MPF Research anticipates that rental rates for LA apartments will
increase 1.3 percent during the coming year.
Combining the shifts forecast for occupancy and rent production, apartment revenues in Los
Angeles should move up by an average of 1.7 percent during the year-ending June 2011.

Intown Los Angeles recorded its second
consecutive quarter of move-outs recently.
The locale’s apartment market lost 1,240
apartment renter households, on net,
during the April-June time frame, taking the
demand tally for the first half of 2010 to
about -1,600 units. However, recent losses
weren’t enough to completely erase the
positive absorption recorded in 2009’s final
six months, as the locale reported demand
for 2,850 apartments in the year-ending
mid-2010. Unlike the top-tier stocks in
most other submarkets, Intown LA’s
newest block of units built since 2000 saw
notable leasing activity during the past
year. This age niche gained nearly 1,300
apartment residents during the year-ending
2nd quarter 2010.
A struggling economy appears to have
prompted layoffs at a handful of
corporations in the Intown Los Angeles
neighborhood during the year-ending June
2010. Most notably, investment
management firm The Capital Group Cos.
pink-slipped 174 employees at its Los
Angeles location in July 2009. U.S. Bank
eliminated roughly 170 local positions over
the course of 2010’s first six months.
California Sportservice Inc., which provides
food service at Dodger Stadium, laid off
112 workers during 2nd quarter 2010.
Additionally, during 2010’s 1st quarter, The
Los Angeles Times trimmed its workforce
by nearly 70 jobs.
Supply
The Intown Los Angeles area witnessed
the delivery of 483 new apartments during

supply bringing apartment additions for the
first six months of 2010 to 675 units. In the
year-ending June, deliveries totaled 1,129 apartments. Notably, about one-third of Intown Los
Angeles’ apartment completions during the past year began the construction process as forsale product. Intown LA’s annual delivery volume grew the locale’s apartment inventory by 1.6
percent, bringing the existing unit base to 70,598 units as of mid-2010.

Los Angeles Apartment Report
Apartment deliveries in 2nd quarter consisted of four projects,
three of which came online in LA’s Historic Core. SB Tower,
Intown Los Angeles’ largest quarterly completion, reached finalunit build-out in April. Located at the corner of Spring and 6th
Streets, this 20-story high-rise by SB Properties is situated
within blocks of a few of the developer’s other apartment
communities – SB Spring, SB Lofts and SB Manhattan. SB
Tower, which is the renovated 1959 Grosse building that
formerly housed the First Interstate Bank, contains 250
apartments and 8,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space.
Amenities include glass balconies in each apartment, a rooftop
deck with panoramic views, and concierge service. Of note, SB
Properties initially planned for SB Tower to be a condo
development, but recent market dynamics prompted a switch to
apartments.
Moving just half a block northeast of SB Tower on Spring
Street, the Spring Arcade Building was delivered in June. Fifth
Street Funding Inc.’s renovation of the 12-story 1924 Mercantile
Arcade Building contains 142 loft-style apartments situated
above three stories of retail mall space.
SB Tower is the latest addition to SB Properties’
downtown portfolio. Construction wrapped up in
2nd quarter.
Across the street from the Spring Arcade Building at the
junction of Broadway and 5th Street, another rehabilitated
property by Fifth Street Funding, the Jewelry Trades Building,
reached final-unit construction in June. This nine-story, 62-unit
development houses a Rite-Aid on its ground floor and sits catty
corner from the Metropolitan Building, another apartment
renovation project currently in process.
Also completing construction during 2010’s 2nd quarter was one small apartment community
totaling 29 units.

Occupancy
Apartment occupancy in the Intown Los Angeles area took a tumble in recent months. As of
mid-2010, apartments in the Intown LA neighborhood recorded an overall occupancy rate of 92
percent, 2 points under the figure posted by the Los Angeles metro as a whole. Occupancy in
the Intown Los Angeles area slid 2.7 points
during 2nd quarter and 3.5 points over the

this recent loss still left the mid-2010
occupancy figure 2 points ahead of the yearearlier rate, reflecting the gains seen in the

results for new completions working their

however, occupancy in this 2000+ age niche came in a little higher at 91.2 percent. During 2nd
quarter, occupancy declined in almost every product age segment with sizable sample, with the
steepest drop of 4.6 points occurring in Intown LA’s 2000s-era communities. On an annual
basis, however, occupancy increased by around 3 to 4 points in product from the 2000s, 1990s
and 1980s.
Rents
After implementing a small rent reduction during 2010’s first three months, Intown Los Angeles’
property owners and operators continued to cut prices in 2nd quarter. Between March and
June, same-store rental rates dropped 2.9 percent. Effective prices as of June 2010 were 1.7
percent below the rates reported as of June
2009. This rent cut was the Los Angeles

Though not as notable as the performance
recorded in the year-ending mid-2010,
demand in the Intown Los Angeles
neighborhood should register in positive
territory during the coming year. The
neighborhood is anticipated to gain 1,520
apartment renter households in the yearending June 2011.
The forecast apartment demand showing
more than doubles the 603 units scheduled
to come on stream during the year-ending
June 2011. These new communities are
expected to grow Intown Los Angeles’
apartment base by 0.9 percent in the year
ahead. A little farther down the
construction pipeline, one 335-unit property
is slated for delivery in late 2011. Of note,
roughly 20 percent of Intown LA’s
apartment units currently in process consist
of repositioned condo product.
Looking at apartment construction in the
Intown Los Angeles locale, a particularly
active building pocket has emerged in
downtown’s Historic Core district.
Beginning at the intersection of Main and
West Third Streets, The Medallion is in
process. The seven-story development is
being built from the ground up and will
feature 192 apartments, 203,000 square
feet of ground-level retail space and more
A brand new apartment project, The Medallion will offer almost 200 units

also include an outdoor plaza and an
amphitheater. Final-unit build-out of The Medallion is anticipated in late 2010.
Moving a few blocks southwest to the corner of Fifth Street and Lindley Place, the 10-story
Metropolitan Building is being transformed to include 84 rental units and ground-floor retail
space. Residences will comprise the top six floors of the building, with floor plans ranging from
studio lofts to penthouses. Department store retailer Fallas Paredes is operating in the circa
1912 building’s first three floors. Completion of the Metropolitan Building is expected in early
2011. Of note, the Metropolitan Building sits diagonally from the recently renovated Jewelry
Trades Building. Additionally, the nearby 12-story Chester Williams Building is slated to receive
a renovation that will include the construction of 88 apartment units. A development start date
for that project has not been announced yet. Potentially representing some shadow market
leasing competition for these projects, the completed Rowan condo development is located just
a couple of blocks away near the corner of Fifth and Spring Streets. In early 2009, 63 units in
the 206-unit project were auctioned off at below-market prices.
At the very southern edge of the Historic Core, right next to the border of downtown LA’s South
Park district, is a project dubbed The Blackstone. Neighborhood Effort is transforming the circa
1916 Blackstone department store into 82 loft units and ground-floor retail space. The project
will feature the high ceilings typical of loft units, but without the exposed utilities, and restored

historic crown molding. The developer anticipates that The Blackstone will be ready for full
occupancy in 2010’s 3rd quarter.
Looking farther down the development pipeline in the Intown Los Angeles area, five apartment
projects previously identified in the planning stages for the Intown Los Angeles submarket have
now been placed on hold. In addition, the Brockman Building, a 12-story, 80-unit building at
Seventh Street and Grand Avenue that was originally conceived as condominiums but switched
to rentals during the construction process, is essentially complete but sits vacant as its
developer undergoes bankruptcy proceedings. Foreclosure appears imminent.
With Intown Los Angeles’ forecast demand volume coming in well ahead of scheduled new
supply, occupancy in this neighborhood is anticipated to increase 1.4 points during the yearending 2nd quarter 2011. While this is the largest improvement predicted on a submarket level
across the metro, Intown LA’s forecast June 2011 occupancy rate of 93.4 percent still trails the
result anticipated for the metro as a whole by a full percentage point.
The Metropolitan Building is being converted to include 84 apartments
on top of a Fallas Paredes store.

As of June, the occupied unit count in the
Santa Clarita Valley submarket matched
the March level and essentially mirrored the
December tally as well. Annually, however,
absorption in this locale registered at 430
units, on net, thanks to gains recorded
during 2009’s 3rd quarter. Demand for
apartments in the 2000s-era stock
registered at some 150 units during the
past year.
Some jobs were lost in the Santa Clarita
Valley area during the year-ending 2nd
quarter 2010. Most notably, Precor Inc.
recently decided to move its manufacturing
operations from California to North
Carolina. As a result, the maker of fitness
equipment shed almost 100 local positions
over the course of 2010’s first six months.
Supply
While the Santa Clarita Valley area didn’t
receive any new apartment additions in
2010’s first half, the submarket did receive
220 units during the year-ending June.
This annual new supply volume grew the
submarket’s apartment inventory by 1.3
percent, bringing the existing unit base to
17,254 units as of mid-2010.

Occupancy
As of June, the Santa Clarita Valley area landed at the bottom of the barrel in terms of
apartment occupancy. The mid-2010 rate in this neighborhood came in at 91.4 percent, 2.6
points below the metro Los Angeles norm. The 2nd quarter occupancy rate matched the 1st
quarter reading. Despite a 0.1-point dip in
occupancy between late 2009 and midOverall Occupancy
2010, the June 2010 showing did register 1
point higher than the June 2009 figure.

Rents
In the Santa Clarita Valley locale, effective rental rates actually increased by 3 percent between
early 2010 and mid-2010, with this change measured on a same-store basis. With moderate
price increases also recording in 2009’s final six months, the annual rent change figure
registered in positive territory at 2.6 percent.

In the suburban Santa Clarita Valley locale,
the occupied apartment count is projected
to rise by 110 units during the year-ending
2nd quarter 2011. With no new supply set
to come online in the next 12 months, this
forecast demand tally will serve to backfill
existing vacancies.
Consequently, occupancy is expected to
increase by 0.6 points between June 2010
and June 2011. However, the resulting
occupancy rate of 92 percent would still
register as the lowest in the Los Angeles
area, trailing the projected metro average
by 2.4 points.

Los Angeles Apartment Report
Methodology
MPF Research reports assess recent general conditions in the apartment market and forecast market
fundamentals for the coming year. Analysis focuses on investment opportunities and obstacles at the
submarket level. Data in this report represent the best information available at publication time.
Statistics will be similar to, but not necessarily identical to, information published in previous reports, as
MPF Research continually updates its database and sometimes revises historical performances if
information deemed more accurate becomes available.
Identification of near-term opportunities is not a blanket endorsement of activity within any submarket.
Even in submarkets that appear promising overall, investment prospects are not uniformly favorable.
Conversely, pockets of opportunity may exist in submarkets that are not positioned favorably overall.
Investment decisions should be based on market research tailored to the unique potential of each
property.
Key components of the MPF Research methodology include the following.
Universe/Property Characteristics: The MPF Research apartment survey examines trends in rental
properties that are attached dwellings with five or more units. For the most part, these are traditional
apartment communities. Units within projects that were built as for-sale properties (condominiums or
townhomes) can be included if a sizable block of product is being leased through a central marketing
source. Individual units purchased for investment purposes and now offered for lease on a one-off
basis are not tracked.
Existing unit stock is estimated starting with rental communities featuring five or more units, according
to the 2000 Census, and then adding in subsequent completions and properties that convert from
subsidized to market-rate product, and subtracting units taken out of the rental pool for condominium
conversion or demolition. Thus, net inventory change does not solely reflect new construction.
Affordable housing properties generally are included in the stock, even if there are restrictions on
resident incomes, as long as residents are paying their own rent. Public housing developments where
the properties are owned by government agencies or where government agencies pay resident rents
are excluded. College dorms likewise are excluded. Privately-owned student housing is included in the
inventory count, since the presence of these properties often impacts the performances of traditional
communities.
Most of the property-level information that goes into the analysis presented in this report is provided by
owners and managers with significant unit stocks. Thus, while five units is the minimum size for a
property to be included in the analysis, survey respondents generally are owners or managers with the
market’s larger projects. Typical project size for the communities that MPF Research surveys each
quarter hovers at 220 to 230 units nationally. Los Angeles’ typical property size is smaller, usually 160
to 180 units.
Sample/Survey Process: Quarterly performance statistics in this report were calculated based on
information provided for 135,576 apartment units (about 13 percent of all existing units in the Los
Angeles area) during June 2010. The survey area includes Los Angeles County. The table at the end
of this section shows the distribution of survey response by submarket, as well as the percentage of
existing units represented by the current sample.
Most of the information in the MPF Research quarterly survey is collected through mail questionnaires
that are completed by apartment community owners or managers. Where response by mail is not
adequate to produce statistically reliable information on the submarket level, additional properties are
shopped by telephone and/or by site visits.

53
Los Angeles Apartment Report
Information is collected for each property’s individual floor plans (e.g., one-bedroom units sized at 750
square feet), not by general floor plan category (e.g., one-bedroom units sized at 600 to 875 square
feet). In a floor plan that includes a den, the den is counted as a bedroom.
Computerized record-keeping allows MPF Research to compare current and historical information on
an individual property. If more accurate information becomes available, historical data may be
recalculated to reflect these revisions, allowing for meaningful comparison of the current performance to
the historical trend. For the most part, revisions that occur reflect that a property’s new owner or
manager reports a different completion date for the project or a set of floor plans that is different from
the information in the data record established initially. For the most part, modification of historical
information for an individual property does not meaningfully impact overall submarket or metro-level
results reported previously, as sample size is large enough to prevent an individual property from
notably skewing overall performance results.
Submarkets: The submarkets established by MPF Research generally reflect areas featuring similar
properties that compete within the same pool of resident prospects. Submarket boundaries are
established considering logical obstacles like freeways as well as shifts in general neighborhood
character. Key firms active in the apartment market of a given metro are consulted when determining
initial submarket boundaries. To the extent possible, submarket boundaries follow zip code boundaries
to facilitate placement of a property within a specific submarket.
Absorption/Demand: MPF Research defines absorption, or demand, as the increase in physically
occupied units (existing units multiplied by the occupancy rate) from one period to another. Absorption
calculations in this report exclude preleasing to avoid double-counting residents now occupying units
and simultaneously preleasing other units. Absorption calculations are impacted by changes in existing
inventory. Net move-outs can occur simply because the size of the existing inventory shrinks due to
conversions of product from rental stock to condominiums or due to demolitions. Thus, occupancy
actually can rise at the same time that net demand is negative.
Absorption of New Completions: Frequently, management of apartment communities under
construction will begin leasing units as they are finished out. For consistency purposes, units are not
counted as absorbed until the period that the entire property is completed. Thus, absorption will tend to
be somewhat undercounted in the periods preceding completion of the property. This effect is most
pronounced when a large number of units are under construction.
Absorption Forecasts: A macro-to-micro approach is used in forecasting the number of units to be
absorbed in a submarket. That is, absorption is forecast for the entire metro area and then is
distributed among submarkets on the basis of the anticipated capture rate of each submarket.
Primary variables in the mathematical formula used to forecast absorption in any metro include local
economic growth (annual job gain) and recent trends in apartment absorption vs. available supply
(vacant existing apartments plus units under construction). Past trends suggest that future absorption
will be a function of these variables.
For each submarket, the ratio of units absorbed vs. available in supply in recent historical periods is
applied to current available supply. The resulting weighted factors are summed and each submarket’s
share of total area absorption is calculated. This share is then multiplied by the expected metro area
absorption to obtain forecasts for each submarket.
This forecasting model does not reflect non-quantifiable factors such as zoning, new road networks,
new employment centers, etc. As a result, this methodology provides a sound objective basis for
comparing submarkets. However, if unique market factors exist, such subjective factors may need to
be considered when evaluating a specific submarket.

54
Los Angeles Apartment Report
Completions: MPF Research collects construction permit data each quarter from all of the
municipalities across a metro. Developers or contractors are called to verify the number of units and
the month when all units are expected to be completed. These completion dates are updated as
development proceeds to maintain a continuing record of ongoing construction. All units in a property
generally are counted as new supply during the quarter when the last apartments in the project are
finished. Occasionally, units in an extremely large property will be brought into the existing unit count at
periodic intervals as construction proceeds: such exceptions to MPF Research’s standard methodology
will be noted in the supply discussion of the report.
Occupancy: Occupancy reflects the share of the existing stock physically occupied at any point in
time. Preleased units are not part of the occupancy calculation.
Rental Rates: The rental rates presented
by MPF Research reflect a property’s rent
structure at the point of time of the survey,
rather than the property’s actual revenues
(which would be shaped by rents in place
when ongoing leases were signed).
Furthermore, rents represent the rates for
whatever sort of product is offered in the
individual market in the way that the
individual owners/managers package it.
Thus, no adjustments are made for utilities
or for specific amenities (e.g., parking will
be included if that is the way the rent is
presented to the consumer: it will be
excluded if it’s an extra cost feature). At a
project where rents are dramatically outside
the mainstream for whatever reason (e.g.,
the units are furnished, apartment sizes are
substantially different from the norm, etc.), the community simply is excluded from rent calculations, so
that the rents presented by MPF Research reflect the rates for a “normal” project in that particular
market.
Unless noted otherwise, all rents presented in MPF Research publications are effective rates, to the
degree possible. Thus, the impact of concessions that include free rent periods or discounts over the
term of the lease, are calculated into the rent structure. Values of leasing incentives that don’t entail
free or discounted rents cannot be accurately measured and, thus, are not taken into consideration in
MPF Research rent figures. For the most part, concession information presented to MPF Research will
reflect the rent structure established by a company’s regional operations. Many firms give on-site
personnel authorization to offer deeper discounts to close specific leases. Thus, it is not unusual for the
concession information provided to MPF Research to understate actual discounts given in the
marketplace.
Rents are calculated for each property’s individual floor plans (e.g., one-bedroom units sized at 750
square feet), not by general floor plan category (e.g., one-bedroom units sized at 600 to 875 square
feet). In a floor plan that includes a den, the den is counted as a bedroom.
Rent Change: All rent change figures presented in MPF Research publications are same-store, rather
than total sample, calculations. This measure compares rents for the same specific group of properties
between two points in time, thus gauging the typical performance for an apartment community
operating during that time frame. Examination of same-store rent change eliminates the
misrepresentation of market conditions that can result from sampling differences in two reporting
periods.
