As a high desert community resting at the foot of the mountains, it is surrounded by thriving bedroom communities rich in their own histories and economies, bringing the metro area population to approximately 650,000. Experts estimate the MSA population will exceed 710,000 by 2014. Although Boise is famous for the potato market, it has an equally vibrant economic environment for high-tech, healthcare, education, transportation, service, tourism, and retail industries. Many nationally and globally recognized corporations have a home in Boise including Micron Technology, Hewlett Packard, DirecTV, J.R. Simplot Company, MotivePower, and many others. Forbes consistently ranks Boise as one of the top places in the country to do business, high quality of life, raising a family, entertainment, and recreation. And don’t forget one of the greatest bowl game victories in the history of college football completed by our own Boise State Broncos in the 2006 Fiesta Bowl!

Last year’s absorption, a comparison of space occupied to space vacated, was up 30 percent in the Boise area and was its highest in three years thanks to employment gains and minimal new construction, she said. http://idahobusinessreview.com In 15 major buildings Warner tracked, vacancy fell by a quarter in the second half of last year, she said.

She expects the Treasure Valley office market to improve this year – with a modest increase in rents, a slight decrease in leasing incentives and continued purchases of buildings by owneroccupants. Commercial real estate market stabilizing locally by Brad Carlson Published: February 14th, 2012 Southwest Idaho’s commercial real estate market likely will grow slightly this year, a welcome change from recession-fueled volatility. Retail sales are expected to rise by about 6 percent nationally in 2012 following last year’s 7.8 percent gain, said Mark Schlag of Thornton Oliver Keller Commercial Real Estate. Luxury and discount retailers posted gains while many mid-priced players struggled, he said. The big-project announcements and rent stabilization seen in 2011 set the stage for the first normal-looking market in several years, said speakers at the annual Boise Commercial Real Estate Symposium Feb. 14. Retail vacancy in the Treasure Valley fell to 9.8 percent last year, the first single-digit percentage since 2008, Schlag said. That includes 7 percent in shopping centers anchored by big-draw “anchor” stores and 19.5 percent in unanchored centers. Much of the unanchored space needs to be improved, or has spaces that aren’t finished on the inside, he said. Retail asking rents dropped last year but vary widely depending on the retailer and the location, Schlag said. Demand for vacant, second-generation retail space increased, but about half of Treasure Valley submarkets saw more space vacated than occupied as retailers sought newer, high-profile properties, he said. Tommy Ahlquist, principal in developer Gardner Company, said he expects optimism to return to the market over the next year. Construction and development likely will sputter along a bit this year as residential real estate bottoms out and starts to recover, and then grow moderately in 2013, he said. Schlag said restaurant leasing and sales transactions increased by about 15 percent locally in 2011. Industrial vacancy dropped from 10.7 percent to 10.4 percent in 2011 in the Treasure Valley, said Brenda Clay of DK Commercial. Multi-tenant industrial buildings saw vacancy drop from 20.2 percent to 19.9 percent.

Hiring in construction, manufacturing, and professional/business services is more than offsetting the contraction in education/healthcare. At 8.8%, the unemployment rate hit a two-year low after declining every month this year but two. Industrial production has surpassed its prerecession peak and continues to rise rapidly. Housing indicators are generally favorable: The FHFA home price index rose for the first time in four years in the third quarter. Both permitting and starts are up sharply from last year’s depressed levels because of a surge in the multifamily market. Semiconductors. Although semiconductor manufacturing has outperformed in recent months, its outlook is constrained by weakened demand and global competition. Flooding in Thailand is disrupting hard-disk drive supply chains, causing PC producers to cut back on purchases of other components. Micron, the largest U.S. maker of computermemory chips and a top employer in BOI, reported losses in the most recent quarter, partly due to a significant drop in DRAM semiconductor orders. Because of lower labor costs, Asian chip manufacturers will reduce BOI’s footprint in the global semiconductor market even as demand recovers in 2012. Long term, local industry employment is expected to contract in line with the national trend. Conversely, Micron’s entrance into the NAND market does provide upside risk as these chips are used in the increasingly popular tablets and smartphones. Construction projects. Construction could be a positive surprise as commercial real estate projects boost activity. Construction was the hardest hit industry during the recession, losing over 50% of its workforce because demand was nonexistent. However, improvement in economic conditions has led to a surge in commercial investments.

Construction payrolls have expanded rapidly to keep up with the flurry of activity; employment is up over 13% from a year earlier compared with less than 1% nationally. A stronger than expected rebound in housing demand coupled with nonresidential projects could provide enough of a boost to limit payroll contraction in coming months. Housing. The housing market will undergo a marked improvement in 2012 due to favorable demographic trends and robust job growth. After experiencing the worst price depreciation in the state, a noticeable decline in both foreclosures and inventories is allowing house prices to stabilize. Firming in the metro area’s labor market will allow existing residents to release pent-up demand and attract a higher number of migrants; household formation will accelerate next year and remain elevated in the medium term. While house prices fall another 4% nationally before bottoming in mid-2012, they will increase 4% in the metro area during that same period. However, risks are weighted to the downside. A slow national recovery could limit mobility, preventing BOI’s population growth from rebounding as quickly and suppressing housing demand. Boise City’s recovery will slow slightly, but job growth will outpace the nation. Healthcare and professional/business services will lead the way as BOI’s highly cyclical economy benefits from improving conditions nationally. Over the long run, relatively low business costs, existing infrastructure, and an educated labor force will encourage investment, helping BOI maintain its position as an above-average performer.

The metro area, which accounts for 40% of the state’s employment, has added more jobs than Idaho did so far this year. As conditions improve nationally, businesses that are looking to expand into new markets are attracted to BOI by its comparative cost advantages to other large Western cities and its educated workforce. BOI’s international trade will be a source of strength because of its ties with expanding Asian markets and limited exposure to the troubled euro zone. Nearly 75% of Idaho exports come from BOI, and it is posting above-average year-over-year growth as demand for computer/electronic parts and food products grows globally, especially in Asia. The U.S.’s free-trade agreement with South Korea will help open up new channels for BOI’s producers. Moreover, state officials have embarked on a trade mission to Latin America in an attempt to expand into previously untapped markets.
