“As COVID-19 surged, available office space inventory skyrocketed and remained that way when many companies decided to delay their return to in-office work until January 2022,” said Austin Tenant Advisors Owner Nathan Smith. “As that date approaches, we’re seeing an increase in office leasing activity as companies begin making plans for getting back to business-as-usual. This has resulted in the first decline in available office space inventory since the pandemic began.”
In the guide, Nathan Smith reports there are 74 office towers in the Downtown Austin Sub Market. That number will change soon as new office buildings are in the works. Office space for rent in Downtown Austin includes new space and short term subleasing opportunities.
Cost Per Square Foot has a broad range from $31 to $80 sf. Austin Tenant Advisors Guide reports the average price per square foot is $59.36 sf.
