如果萨克拉门托建立它, 技术将来

The bi-annual blog returns, I know you have all been waiting for this! It has been clear over the past 6 months that Sacramento has nudged over the tipping point from relative national obscurity to sustained intrigue. 最热门房地产市场在加利福尼亚在加利福尼亚州发展最快的大城市避风港为海湾地区熟练的难民科技人才隐性创业板与硅谷合并 – these are just a snapshot of the media articles that have come to light in the last 6 months. These stories are off the back of trends that we have been recording over the previous 12-18 months – skilled people are not only moving here but they are impressed with what they find.

我最近讨论萨克拉门托作为一个商业扩张市场的经验已经从一个理由转向了为什么人们会想在这里找到, 有多好的机场连接和什么类型的房地产产品是可用的, 什么时候可以交付.这是过去一年的显著转变, 是利用。

The real estate question is one that has come up again and again. Sacramento has not had a high rise added to its downtown skyline since 2009, 目前, 空置率5.5% 低于2010的高 with very little new product in the pipeline. Institutional money fled the market during the great recession, as it did in other secondary markets across the US with ‘flight to prime’ becoming the mantra around commercial real estate investments. However, the time may be right for it to return, with reasonable investment returns becoming harder and harder to find in prime markets and Sacramento becoming 指定为商业地产投资机会 market.

Layered onto this is the opportunity this region has to drive demand for space – why does Sacramento have a better opportunity than most large metros to actually make the ‘if you build it they will come’ approach a valid one? ' 地方质量 ' is one large piece of the puzzle which we can now check off the list – with the $3.2 billion downtown renaissance we have overcome the hurdle of making Sacramento a desirable place to live, but beyond that what does Sacramento have that other cities trying to attract tech expansion from the Bay Area do not;

要求 Latency – Sacramento is part of the Northern California Megaregion, there is undeniable demand latency for tech jobs from people who want to move here from the Bay Area to reduce costs as well as people who have already moved and work remotely. Added to that the growing number of tech related degree completions – up 41.3% from 2011 to 2015 – from local universities like Sacramento State and UC Davis and you have the platform for sustained expansion.

Cultural Continuity -将技术的存在从海湾地区扩展到加利福尼亚北部的另一地区比搬到另一个州要少得多。在文化和社会问题上有一个明确的一致, 在探索招募新人才或甚至转移现有人员的机会时, 将提供安心。在其他国家的不同社会和文化市场的业务中, 保持一种共同的文化是一个额外的挑战, 可以通过在这里找到来避免。

缓存 – you are still in California. The world’s 5th largest economy in its own right, a globally recognized aspirational place to live. While the state has its challenges in terms of barriers to business (something our region is working collectively to minimize), it is still the most profitable state to do business, it is still the 1. 外国直接投资的目的地 and is unquestionably the state of choice for any aspiring tech entrepreneur.

因此, 对于风险的开发者来说, 时间是正确的超前的曲线, 并获得一些现代办公产品在开发管道, 甚至规范了一些现有的空间, 以标准的预期为创意办公室工作空间。租金稳步上升, 有重大技术空间需求的强有力指标, 最重要的是, 可以很容易被利用的劳动力, 为任何重大的技术扩张服务。

一个社会需要能够做的事情之一就是认识到, 当风吹在他们的青睐和充分的优势, 现在是时间。
