  • Texas Snapshot
    Texas Snapshot Summer 2015 A real estate review from AUSTIN DALLAS FORT WORTH HOUSTON The Retail SpecialistsⓇ SAN ANTONIO AUSTIN: RETAIL MARKET CONTINUES TO SEE STRONG OCCUPANCY, LIMITED CONSTRUCTION A ustin’s retail market as of mid-year 2015 continues to benefi t from continued demand for space at a time of limited U Aconstruction, resulting in an extremely low vacancy rate of only 4 percent. The 96 percent occupancy rate is the market’s highest point since 2004, when occupancy equaled 95.5 percent. S Based on the market’s performance as of mid-year, it should continue to maintain its healthy level of occupied space for the T remainder of 2015 and into 2016. These fi ndings are based on a review of retail market conditions for the greater Austin area as of mid-year 2015 by The Weitzman I Group and Cencor Realty Services. The market’s occupancy rate is based on an inventory of approximately 46.3 million square feet of multi-tenant retail space in centers with 25,000 square feet or more. N Occupancy remains highest in Austin’s core retail districts, where space is essentially full. The strong market, however, is also being refl ected in higher occupancy in the area’s suburban markets. The improving retail occupancy has led to a tight market for space in key trade areas, as well as an extremely limited supply of end-cap locations and pad sites at Class A locations. To meet demand for small-shop space, the market has seen a number of new-construction strip centers in the 10,000-square-foot range.
