Office Market ReportWest Michigan Q3 2015

*Also serving the Kalamazoo & Southwest Michigan areas from our new Kalamazoo office*

Downtown growth is more than meets the eyeOne sign of growth in a downtown market is the number of cranes that are visible in the skyline. If you have driven through downtown Grand Rapids recently, you have probably noticed these signs of growth. But there are more signs that point to growth in our market; such as positive net absorp-tion, increased rental rates, and vacancy rates that are lower compared to other Midwestern markets.

Another sign of growth is the redevelopment of existing properties. We have seen many key downtown office properties change hands over the past several years, and subsequently receive millions of dollars in invest-ment for exterior and interior improvements. One recent example of this in downtown Grand Rapids, on a smaller scale, is 25 Jefferson Place. The building has great character and amazing views of downtown from the penthouse unit. The owners were looking for a way to update the proper-ty and make it more appealing to buyers or tenants. It was recommended to the owner that they completely demo the penthouse unit and remodel the lobby.

The demo to the top floor unit included tearing out the ceiling tiles to ex-pose the 15’ ceilings, ripping out the drywall to the highlight the character of the original bricks walls, and removing the carpet to expose the mod-ern concrete floors. Not only did this help promote the beautiful views of downtown, but it also allowed natural light to flow through the space. The owner also remodeled the building’s lobby with new wood grain tile flooring, fresh paint for the walls, LED lighting, and mural of the building address on the lobby wall.

The owners spent approximately $50,000 for the improvements to the building, and that investment was quickly recovered as the property was sold just months later. This is a classic example of a property that pos-sessed unique features that were simply hidden due to the age of the property. By taking the time and investing a little capital, the building was transformed into one where buyers can easily visualize their business. Downtown growth isn’t just reserved for new office towers that add to the skyline. More often, old buildings, such as 25 Jefferson Place, are being redeveloped and repurposed to meet a growing need of downtown office users and downtown residences.

“A broker open house was held after construction was complete, brought in 2 great offers within 2 weeks! The entire building, along with the 4 condo units, was sold in September 2015 to a local developer who plans to convert the property to residential.”
