RESEARCH & FORECAST REPORT
HOUSTON OFFICE MARKET
HOUSTON’S HOT ECONOMY BOOSTS OFFICE LEASING,
SALES, AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITY
Houston’s strong job growth boosted office leasing in 2012. Fourth quarter
leasing activity reached 2.4 million SF, pushing the year-end total to over 12.2
million SF. The Houston metropolitan area added 85,300 jobs between
November 2011 and November 2012, an annual increase of 3.2% over the prior
year’s job growth. Further, Houston’s unemployment fell to 5.8% from 7.3%
one year ago, which bolstered annual Houston area home sales by 27.9%.
Expansion in the energy industry has driven demand for new office
development as tenants find it harder to locate blocks of quality office space.
Currently, over 4.2 million SF of office space is under construction and
approximately 50.0% of it is pre-leased. A complete list of properties under
construction can be found on page 7 of this report.
Houston’s office market posted 824,400 SF of positive absorption in the fourth
quarter, pushing the year-end total to 4.4 million SF.
Houston’s overall vacancy levels fell to 13.8%, an annual decrease of 170 basis
points. The city-wide average rental rate increased from $22.20 per SF to
$23.97 per SF over the year, a nearly 8.0% increase.
With continued expansion in the energy industry and a strong housing market,
Houston’s economy is expected to remain healthy for both the near and long-
term.
