Countywide net absorption was negative 623,844 SF for the year, bringing the total demand deficit to 2.2 million SF since the lockdown. Absorption in the five years before the pandemic averaged 928,413 SF per year.<br \/>\nThere was 948,955 SF of added available sublease space in 2022, up 1.7 million SF since the lockdown. Available second-hand space now totals 4.2 million SF, or 3.6% of the total 117 million SF inventory. The overall vacancy rate at the close of 2022 was 14.3%, up 1.20 percentage points for the year and 3.56 percentage points since the lockdown. <\/p>\n<p>There have been 17 buildings totaling 1.87 million SF added to the office inventory since the pandemic hit at the end of Q1 2020. The combination of new inventory and tenant contraction brings the total of vacant space since the lockdown to 4.35 million SF.<\/p>\n<p>Across all five submarkets vacancy rates range from 10.2% to 16.3%. Asking full-service rents averaged 2.54 per SF, a 7.6% decline since Q1 2020. Despite the overall negative report, the two largest of the county\u2019s five submarkets, the Airport and South County, posted absorption gains in 2022.<\/p>\n<p>After recording negative growth in eight of the last 11 quarters, the 44.5-million-SF Airport submarket recorded strong fourth-quarter demand and finished the year 456,992 SF in the black. In the previous two years, however, 1.9 million SF of space went back on the market, pushing the vacancy rate from 10.4% to 15.6%. Asking rents averaged $2.54 per SF at the close of 2022, a 6.9% decline since the lockdown.<\/p>\n<p>Demand for space in South County dramatically improved in 2022. After putting 385,477 back on the market in 2021 and posting 109,332 SF of Q4 negative growth, net absorption was up 376,029 SF in 2022.<\/p>\n<p>Tenants shed 822,817 SF in the 22.3-million-SF Central County submarket in 2022. The vacancy rate rose 40 basis points from Q3 to settle at 16.3%, the county\u2019s highest.<\/p>\n<p>The 14.3-million-SF North County submarket posted four quarters of negative absorption in 2022 totaling 604,265 SF and driving up the vacancy rate 330 basis points to 10.2%.<\/p>\n<p>The 8.6-million-SF West County submarket ended the year with 29,783 SF of negative net absorption. The vacancy rate was 10.4%.<\/p>\n<p>The largest lease of the fourth quarter was Apple\u2019s 27-month lease of 115,290 SF of Class A space in the Spectrum from the Irvine Company. Five of the top 10 leases in the fourth quarter were in the Tustin Legacy submarket. For the largest sale, Adelfi Credit Union sold four buildings on Imperial Highway in Brea totaling 288,189 SF for $80 million to Healthcare Property Advisors. Each building traded for $277 per SF.<\/p>\n<h2>MARKET FORECAST<\/h2>\n<p>2022 Q4 OFFICE REPORT ORANGE COUNTY shows In their recent annual forecast for 2023, Cal State Fullerton economists said high inflation will be stickier than expected, forcing the Fed to keep interest rates elevated and making a recession difficult to avoid within the next 12 months..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Download Report SLIDE CONTINUES DUE TO HYBRID SCHEDULES, SLOWER GROWTH 2022 Q4 OFFICE REPORT ORANGE COUNTY Demand for office space&#8230;<span class=\"readmore\"><a class=\"moretag\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lee-associates.com\/orange\/2022-q4-office-report-orange-county\/\">+<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":84,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6,4],"tags":[7],"class_list":["post-11349","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-featured","category-market-reports","tag-featured"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.7 (Yoast SEO v28.7) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>2022 Q4 OFFICE REPORT ORANGE COUNTY | LEE ORANGE<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"2022 Q4 office report orange county shows many mainstream tenants are still modifying hybrid workplace schedules.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lee-associates.com\/orange\/2022-q4-office-report-orange-county\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"2022 Q4 OFFICE REPORT ORANGE COUNTY\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"2022 Q4 office report orange county shows many mainstream tenants are still modifying hybrid workplace schedules.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.lee-associates.com\/orange\/2022-q4-office-report-orange-county\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Lee &amp;
