North
Vacancy & Absorption
» Class A vacancy decreased 80 basis points, down for the fi rst time in seven quarters. A large portion of this was due to Baxter Credit Union moving into their expansion space in Vernon Hills.
» When considering high quality “trophy” assets in the North market, vacancy is even lower, ending the quarter at 11.7 percent.
» Despite 86,288 square feet of positive absorption in the second quarter, overall year-to-date absorption remains negative due to move outs earlier this year.
Transaction Activity
» Leasing highlights include AveXis’ 28,000 square foot sublease at Three Parkway North in Deerfi eld and Publications International’s 17,500-square-foot renewal at North Grove Corporate Park in Morton Grove.
» While no investment sales were completed in the second quarter, two Deerfi eld properties are currently under contract: Three Parkway North, a 257,555-square-foot property and 1717 Deerfi eld Road, a 147,096-square-foot property.
Forecast
» There will be increased opportunities for large users as Takeda Pharmaceuticals plans to move out of its 750,000-square-foot headquarters by year-end.
» Quality Class A space will come at a premium.
Continued rent growth and absorption is projected for well located “trophy “assets in the North market.
Large blocks of space returning to the market will off er uncertainty, and Class B/C commodity product in
secondary locations will continue to struggle.

Vacancy & Absorption
» Class A vacancy decreased in the fi rst quarter, down 50 basis points from the same time period a year ago.
» When considering high quality “trophy” assets, vacancy is considerably lower at 6.9 percent, down 250 basis points from second quarter 2018.
» Despite 21,832 square feet of positive absorption in the second quarter, overall year-to-date absorption remains negative due to move-outs earlier this year.
Transaction Activity
» Leasing highlights include Edward-Elmhurst Health’s 188,000-square-foot new lease at 4201 Winfi eld Road in Warrenville, National Louis University’ 57,000-square-foot renewal at Corporetum Offi ce Campus in Lisle and Midwest Orthopaedics’ new 22,000-square-foot lease at MetroWest in Naperville.
» Sales highlights include FDG, LLC’s purchase of 2400 Cabot Drive, a 205,633- square- foot property in Lisle for $2,650,000 and Freidman Real Estate’s purchase of Corporate Lakes III, a 124,327-square-foot property in Lisle for $2,677,500. Friedman Real Estate has since put Corporate Lakes III back on the market.
Forecast
» The second half of the year will see steady leasing of larger deals in the 15,000 – 30,000 square foot range as well as those 10,000 square feet and under.
» Renovations of older properties into modern workplaces continue, including 263 Shuman Boulevard in Naperville, which will complete its renovations at the end of July.
» Distressed offi ce buildings will continue be sold and likely repositioned.
Newly repositioned offi ce properties continue to be the most sought after in the Lisle-
Naperville market.
