Industrial Market Review
For more information on
market conditions, please
feel free to contact us.
Here we are through the second quarter of 2016 and the South Puget Sound market
trends we have been seeing over the past six to eight quarters continue to hold true.
Vacancy rates continue to fall, lease rates continue to rise, and owner/user and
investment sale activity is hotter than a Trump/Clinton debate. There is much uncertainty
in what the next year will bring but for now the market continues to hold strong.
Make sure to take a look at the Q&A section we have in this month’s newsletter where
we ask Robert Aigner, Senior Vice President and Regional Manager for Harsch
Investment Properties, his perspective on the current market and what we have in store
for the future.

Sales Activity
From a sales standpoint, the second quarter of
LBA Realty acquired the 114,000 SF
2016 saw a total of 26 industrial sales from
Red Dot building for $108/SF
South Seattle to Lakewood. With sale prices
varying significantly due to geographic
submarkets, the median per square foot pricing continues to trend up and up and was at
$116 per square foot. Recently there has been a surge in transactions of small to
medium-sized industrial properties, often times selling for over $125 per square foot.
Please call or email for median pricing per specific submarket.
Land Sales
Infill sites of 1 to 5 acres continue to be in high demand, often with multiple groups in
the bidding. There were 6 land sales reported in the second quarter with sale prices
continuing to rise, ranging from $8 to $16 per square foot depending on location.

Rob Aigner
Rob Aigner is the Senior Vice President and Regional
Manager for Harsch Investment Properties which owns
and manages over two million square feet of industrial and
retail space throughout the Puget Sound. Rob has practiced
in the commercial real estate field for over thirty years. He
has served on numerous industry boards and currently
serves on the Board of Trustees at The University of
Washington’s Runstad Center for Real Estate Studies.
Many feel we are in the height of the industrial real estate
market. How does this market compare to the previous
peak period in 2007?
Peaks and records are funny things. Just when you think you
have seen it all there is a new peak and a new record just
waiting to be broken. We are on a trajectory that is
unparalleled over the last 30 years. I am not smart enough to
call the peaks or troughs in any market but this market cycle,
like 2007, does feel a bit frothy at the moment. This froth may
have some sustainability this time around.
How do you think the Puget Sound region will fare
compared to other major markets upon the next
downturn?
Never say never but the diversity of the Puget Sound
economy with its ties to international trade, manufacturing,
technology and service industries, make it one of the best
'resilient' bets for the future.
We have seen a significant increase in lease rates over
the last 3 years. What trend do you foresee in the next
two years?
I foresee a slow and steady continuation of the same. Possibly
not at such an accelerated rate as we have seen recently, but
an increase nonetheless.
Since Harsch owns and manages over two million square
feet of industrial space, from Kent through Fife, your
portfolio is a good barometer of market activity. What do
you project for the balance of 2016 and into 2017?
We’re a good barometer of small business activity. With over
600 tenants in the portfolio we are seeing an optimism in small
business that gives us confidence for the future. Small
businesses are taking more risks, hiring more people, and are
less concerned about the future as they once were. With this
enthusiasm comes a willingness to take on more risk. This is
good for the entire region as we are predicting a rising tide for
the next two years.
Which geographic areas in our industrial market are you
seeing the fastest growth?
Anywhere there is new construction. Look to Sumner,
Puyallup, Fife and the Close-In Seattle market.
