Rent vs. Vacancy Comparison

Fast Lab Stats

• With approximately 8.5 msf of regional lab inventory, the Greater Los Angeles life sciences market has emerged as a growth market with great potential. Though smaller in scale compared to its national contemporaries, a surplus of aged and obsolete industrial flex and office space provides a hardy supply of renovation opportunities to meet the growing demand. • Many of the submarkets across Greater Los Angeles are viable locations for the life sciences industry due to their proximity to world class institutions or because they are anchored in areas with significant workforce tailored towards the industry. These clusters include South Bay (El Segundo), LA North (Thousand Oaks), Tri-Cities (Pasadena), the Westside (Culver City, Santa Monica, etc.) and Orange County. In 2022, a large portion of activity was concentrated in the LA North, LA West, South Bay and Tri-Cities markets. • Los Angeles life sciences companies continue to move on low-rise/flex product, which is more desirable and can be adapted to fit their unique needs (i.e., floor size, loading capabilities, ceiling heights, ability to vent and above standard power). • More developers are contemplating intensive renovations/space makeovers as well as new ground up projects to attract companies in the life sciences sector looking to commit to larger space requirements. • Asking rents continue to rise and set new records for newer space, ranging from $60 NNN psf to $72 NNN psf on an annual basis. Due to economic headwinds, there is a growing risk that recent growth can be tempered over the next few years.
