During the fourth quarter of 2023, the San Gabriel Valley Industrial Submarket of Los Angeles experienced a continuation of the trend where available space increased once again, marking a significant factor in the local industrial real estate landscape. This rise in available space suggests potential shifts in market dynamics, such as increased supply or adjustments in tenant demand, influencing the overall vacancy rates in the submarket. 

The submarket faced a minor setback in terms of average rents, which decreased by $0.07 to $1.56 NNN (Triple Net Lease). This decrease may be attributed to the delicate balance between supply and demand, tenant negotiations, and broader economic factors that impact the pricing dynamics of industrial properties in the San Gabriel Valley. 

Within the Pomona Industrial Market, warehouse buildings in the fourth quarter of 2023 had an average sale price of $308.76 per square foot (PSF). This figure provides valuable insights into the local market's pricing dynamics, reflecting the perceived value of industrial properties in Pomona during that specific quarter. 

In the neighboring City of Industry, the average sale price per square foot for warehouse buildings stood higher at $351.68. This higher price point suggests that the City of Industry maintained a premium position within the San Gabriel Valley, potentially due to factors such as strategic location, specialized facilities, or a higher level of demand in that specific submarket. 

Looking at the San Gabriel Valley Industrial Market as a whole, the average sale price settled at $304.52 PSF during Q4 of 2023. This comprehensive figure encompasses the performance of various submarkets within the San Gabriel Valley, highlighting the overall pricing trend for industrial properties across the region. 

In summary, the fourth quarter of 2023 witnessed an increase in available space in the San Gabriel Valley Industrial Submarket, coupled with a slight decrease in average rents. The variations in average sale prices across specific markets, such as Pomona and the City of Industry, add complexity to the overall real estate landscape. Stakeholders and investors may find value in analyzing these trends to make informed decisions in response to the evolving dynamics of the San Gabriel Valley's industrial real estate market.

The industrial sector in the San Gabriel Valley continues to exhibit resilience and robustness, even in the face of a minor uptick in the vacancy rate, which now stands at 3.3%. This small increase in vacant industrial spaces has not had a significant adverse impact on the market. Rental prices have experienced only a slight dip since the previous quarter, currently averaging at an annual rate of $18.96 per square foot on a triple-net lease basis. 

Despite these minor fluctuations, construction activity in the San Gabriel Valley remains steady and thriving. A substantial 5.3 million square feet of new industrial developments are currently underway, illustrating the enduring demand for industrial properties in the region. 

However, it is essential to note that a moratorium in Pomona, California, affecting warehouses, trucking facilities, and other industrial-related uses, is poised to expire by the close of 2023. This pending expiration of the moratorium introduces an element of potential opportunity into the local industrial landscape. Both tenants and developers should keep a watchful eye on market dynamics and remain flexible in their strategies, ready to pivot to seize emerging opportunities in this ever-evolving industrial market in the San Gabriel Valley. 

In conclusion, the San Gabriel Valley's industrial sector is in a state of transition, with various factors in play, from the rise in vacancy rates to the imminent expiration of the Pomona moratorium. Adapting to these changes and staying well-informed about market shifts will be crucial for those involved in the industrial real estate market in this dynamic and resilient region.
