Northern New Jersey/New York, has a tremendous ap- petite for goods and services. Strong housing markets in the District and NYC will also positively affect the perfor- mance of the industrial sector. Washington, DC/ Baltimore Properties in the Washing- ton/Baltimore market remain highly sought after as Ama- zon.com and other consumer goods companies drive space demand. An upswing in resi- dential building will gener- ate new space needs for the building trades; specifically, the industry will need to store construction materials. Insti- tutional investors are active, focusing on newer assets in the Dulles Corridor. Cap rates for institutional assets are in the sub-6 percent range due to lim- ited availability. Considerable interest exists in the submar- kets closest to the District as many of these properties offer future development poten- tial and are being converted to schools, alternative com- mercial space, breweries and other higher-end uses. Prices in close-in submarkets can be high, as evidenced by the recent sale of the 800,000 s/f V Street Industrial Park in 1Q for more than $140 psf. Net absorption of 3.2 million s/f will exceed completions and slice vacancy 50 basis points to 8.9% by year’s end. Developers will bring 2.6 million s/f online, primarily in buildings measur- ing less than 200,000 s/f, com- pared to only 2 million s/f in the past two years combined. Average rents are expected to rise 3.7% to $8.05 psf. Northern NJ/NY Northern New Jersey is one of the strongest industrial markets in the country. Its position as a starting point for goods flowing into the northeastern U.S, as well as the anticipated rise in volume at the Port of NY & NJ, are attracting companies to the region, spurring construction
