First calculate the location quotients (LQ) for this area relativeto US TOTAL based on 2-digit NAICS code (i.e. at sector level) in 2011 anddetermine which industries are basic in the region (you can calculate LQthrough the BLS website http://www.bls.gov/data/> ) Then please briefly discuss your findings and the implications to the San Francisco commercial property market.2.

According to an economic impact study conductedby Tripp Umbach the nation s leader in economic impact analysis for academicmedical centers the new College of Medicine at Florida InternationalUniversity may generate 66000 new jobs and have an annual economic impact ofmore than $8.9 billion within 16 years. The college which had its first classin August 2009 already had an annual economic impact of more than $100 millionin South Florida. Recently the President of FIU indicated that FIU would meetwith representatives from the Miami-Dade County Fair & Exposition Inc. andMiami-Dade County to explore the possibility of finding a new location for theFair so that FIU can expand into the location that currently is the fairgroundsadjacent to the MMC (the FIU main campus).Inlight of these potential growth and development activities suppose you have been hired by a developer/investor to conduct market analysis in the MMC area.Specifically you need to determine whether a new office hotel apartment or retail property should be built around FIU s main campus area in the next 5-10 years. Assumethat most of the teaching and medical facilities of the College will be built aroundthe main campus area. This basic market analysis would serve as the startingpoint for a more complete market research study. Please focus on definingmarket and demand & supply analysis. Also please outline potentialcompetition if there is any.Note:you should determine onlyoneof theproperty types that you believe is the most feasible/profitable development. Alsothe level of market analysis should be Level B that is present yourarguments with necessary statistical support and graphs (using data from Costarand/or STDB etc..) but no need for extensive interview or valuation analysis.Please do not write your report more than 5 pages
