PROBLEMS FACING
BUILDING OWNERS
But Office Vacancies Are
Now Met With Increased
Understanding.

The Office building industry faces 1880
with many problems, one of them aris-
ing from overbuilding conditions in some
sections, but there is little pessimism
among members of the National Asso-
citation of Building owners and Man
ayers. it is stated by Paul Robertson,
president.
I'VE will begin the new year with an
office space vacancy slightly in excess
of the normal vavancy," he reports,
pointing out that the Office building in
dustry is one of high. Importance, since
its represents invested capital in excess
Of $1,000. 0O0,0 900.
He declares there is little peSSimism,
because building owners and managers
today have a much better understand
ing of rental campaigns operating prob
lens and service to tenants than ever
before.
The last quarterly survey revealed a
vacancy of 1l.55 per cent throughout
the country, he reports.
I'VE are convinced" he said, "that
with the addition of many more millions
of square feet of Office space during
1880 the national average of vacancies
will be higher than in 1929-in fact,
higher than at any time since before the
World War. There is a tremendous
amount of building under way and many
more projects will begin TO assume def
mite form during 1890. The number Of
contracts let for Office building projects
during the first IL months of 1929 have
not only exceeded those of 1928 by mill
lions of dollars, but by millions OF
square feet Of floor area as well.
Some of the new construction of Of
flee buildings is justified from the stand
point Of local market conditions. Some
Of it is clearly adding to already over
built conditions
