HOUSTON OFFICE MARKET
HOUSTON’S OFFICE MARKET POSTS 2.3M SF OF
POSITIVE NET ABSORPTION IN Q1
Houston’s office market had a phenomenal first quarter, recording 2.3M
SF of positive net absorption, the highest quarterly amount since 2.5M SF
was recorded in Q2 2007.
More than 2.1M SF was added to Houston’s office inventory and, at the
close of Q1, 15.1M SF of new office development was under construction.
Energy giants such as Apache, BHP, ExxonMobil, Phillips 66, and Shell
have expansion projects in the construction pipeline currently, and many
others have announced plans to build new office buildings to
accommodate growth.
The citywide average rental rate increased 2.5% from $25.45 per SF to
$26.09 per SF over the quarter and 6.1% from $24.59 per SF over the
year. Citywide, average Class A rents increased 3.7% and Class B rents
increased 2.0% over the quarter.
The Houston metropolitan area added 91,300 jobs between January 2013
and January 2014, an annual increase of 3.4% over the prior year’s job
growth. Local economists have forecasted 2014 job growth to remain
strong, adding between 68,000 and 72,000 jobs. Houston’s unemployment
fell to 5.6% from 6.9% one year ago. Houston area home sales increased
8.35% between February 2013 and February 2014 and the average price
of a single-family home rose 12.5% over the year.
Houston’s economy is expected to remain strong in 2014 due to healthy
job growth and continued expansion in the energy sector.

ABSORPTION & DEMAND
Absorption increased in Q1 as new space
was delivered and tenants expanded.
Houston’s office market posted 2.3M SF of
positive net absorption, a significant
improvement over the 548,000 SF of
negative net absorption posted in the same
quarter one year ago.
Suburban Class A space posted the largest
gain, with 2.2M SF of positive net absorption,
mostly due to tenants expanding into new
space in The Woodlands and Katy Freeway
submarkets. Class A space in the CBD
posted the largest loss, with 37,190 SF of
negative net absorption.

new space during Q1 include: Wood Group
