High Rises Are Out, Campuses Are In as L.A. Office Real Estate Market Recovers
High Rises Are Out, Campuses Are In as L.A. Office Real Estate Market Recovers
by Hadley Meares, The Hollywood Reporter, 6/7/2022
 
As L.A.’s commercial real estate market recovers from the massive blow of COVID, some areas are flourishing while others are stuck in a two-year slump,. “It’s somewhat of a tale of two cities, depending on which market we’re talking about,” says Jodie Poirier, executive managing director at Colliers.
...

The pandemic also has accelerated pre-COVID trends, with employers putting a premium on fostering a comfortable, creative environment for their employees. High-rise, cubicle-heavy offices are out. Brick and timber low-rise buildings with ample natural light, garden space, high ceilings, ease of ingress and egress and amenities including gyms and dog parks are in.

A prime example of this new style is Hackman Capital Partners’ 30-acre 888 Douglas St. campus in El Segundo, a converted former aerospace plant with soaring 50-foot ceilings and skylights. Another is Water’s Edge in Playa Vista, where Nike has taken over a building on a campus that includes an Olympic-sized pool.

After little movement the last few weeks, mortgage rates rose again on the back of increased economic activity and incoming inflation data. The housing market is incredibly rate-sensitive, so as mortgage rates increase suddenly, demand again is pulling back. The material decline in purchase activity, combined with the rising supply of homes for sale, will cause a deceleration in price growth to more normal levels, providing some relief for buyers still interested in purchasing a home.

Half of Homebuyers Cry At Least Once While Shopping For A Home: Survey
by Ben Verde, Inman, 6/6/2022
 
Buying a home can be as stressful as planning a wedding or getting fired for Americans, half of whom find themselves in tears at least once during the process, according to a new survey.

Conducted by Zillow, the survey found that 50 percent of homebuyers said the process left them in tears, with millennial and Generation Z buyers — who are most likely to be buying their first home — leading the pack, with 61 percent of millennials and 65 percent of Gen Zers reporting tears, according to Zillow.

Parents Are Buying Homes for Kids Priced Out of the Housing Market

Even as the US real estate market shows signs of cooling, inflation and higher interest rates are making it difficult for young house hunters to buy properties — at least on their own.

Parents are increasingly helping their adult children purchase homes, whether that means co-signing a mortgage, giving money for a down payment or buying the property outright, according to real estate agents across the country.
