Real Estate Market Analysis Market Analysis comprised of 3 phases: 1. Real Estate Inventory 2. GSP MarketView Analysis 3. Current Conditions of Internal & External Real Estate Markets Phase 1 - Real Estate Inventory 46 percent of the area within 1 mile of the property is undeveloped 16
Phase 2 GSP MarketView Assembled list of 30 comparable airports based on long-term passenger and cargo projections or other pertinent reasons Collected data for each comparable airport market Interviewed local contacts for each comparable airport market Analyzed and summarized the results based on each product type: Office, Industrial, Retail and Hospitality Phase 3 - Current Conditions of Internal & External Real Estate Markets Summary Manufacturing presence is unique Local economy is slightly ahead of national economy Small market financing Ease of access & multi-modal capability important assets Early development is critical and will set the stage 17
Highest and Best Use (HBU) Analysis Determine highest and best use of the 9 tracts of land at GSP Analysis based on; physical characteristics, legal restrictions, and current market conditions Identify demand and most probable property users HBU Site Description 18
HBU Summary of Recommendations Planning Guidelines & Assumptions Overall Product Guided by market demand, HBU, and physical site conditions Unique, high quality product not currently available in Upstate Plan for short- to mid-term use of future runway location Maintain larger flexible parcels where possible Incorporate buffers/green space to maintain natural beauty 19
Planning Guidelines & Assumptions Aviation Uses Maximize when runway access available/planned Group V design standards Maximize efficiency (clusters/modules) Include plans for future Runway, taxiways and ATCT Plan for future aviation activity/growth (cargo, terminal bldg., etc.) Evaluate TW extension north of Hwy 101 Planning Guidelines & Assumptions Roadways & Access Maintain ease of access/use (Airport entrance) Standard roadway, signage, landscape design (campus feel) Minimize any increase in congestion Minimize traffic interaction by incompatible uses (industrial vs. office) 20
