 Our First Quarter Report was released early last week and the numbers bear out what we predicted back in December 2008, which is to say vacancy is up and rates are down.  August is the predicted low point with flat growth through the balance of 2009. A few tips to keep in mind if you are considering new office space:

1. Keep expectations realistic. Free rent, rent reductions and above standard tenant improvement allowances are available, but they are dependent upon the location and credit quality of a tenant.

2. The suburban markets have been hit harder and are more aggressive than the downtown.

3. Some landlords will consider rewriting existing leases three to twelve months prior to lease expiration. This is a great way to take advantage of the soft market today.

For a complete copy of our quarterly report, which includes rate, vacancy and deal information, please email me at kristin.hammond(at)pacific-re.com or DM me on Twitter at FzMcFadden and request a copy.

It was another slow week of lease transactions in Portland. The majority of the companies announcing moves fell under the financial services and insurance categories interestingly enough. The largest deals were Paulson Capital, who renewed 17,136 SF at the Paulson Building (811 NW Naito); Premier Source LLC, who leased 13,321 SF at the Spaulding Building (319 SW Washington); and The Government of Japan, who renewed 11,604 SF at Wells Fargo Center (1300 SW Fifth).  It will likely slowdown considerably more this week and not pick back up until after the first of the year.

Another Thanksgiving passed us by and, in the wake of all things turkey, left us with just a few done deals for the week.

For the past two years, December has been a very busy month with many companies trying to secure office leases before year end due to tax and other benefits. However, this year we anticipate a slower than usual December as many companies are in a holding pattern. Several large firms are simply renewing for a one year period with the hopes of a better environment next December, 2010. There are a few brightspots however, including GarageGames move into the Portland market up from Eugene.
