Market Update: Dallas–Fort Worth, TX (Q1 2025)

1. Vacancy / Availability

Office:

  • Vacancy remains elevated, averaging 24.1% across the metroplex (Cushman).

  • Uptown and Legacy West submarkets outperform with Class-A demand holding firm.

Industrial:

  • Availability ticked up to 7.1%, reflecting a surge in speculative deliveries.

  • DFW remains the top industrial construction market in the U.S., with ~58M SF underway.

Multifamily:

  • Vacancy hovering between 11.8–12.3%, driven by heavy Class-A deliveries.

  • Lease-up concessions common, but absorption remains healthy due to migration trends.

2. Net Absorption

Office:

  • Still in recovery mode: ~–150K SF absorbed in Q1. Trophy assets in Uptown saw slight gains.

Industrial:

  • Mixed absorption across product types:

    • Bulk warehouses saw softening demand (~–400K SF).

    • Flex/last-mile space posted strong absorption (+1.8M SF).

Multifamily:

  • Estimated –1,000 units absorbed in Q1, but Class-B and workforce housing performed best.

3. Asking Rents

Office:

  • Holding steady around $29.25/psf (metro average).

  • Uptown: ~$44/psf | Legacy West: ~$41/psf

Industrial:

  • NNN asking rents: $9.80–$12.10/psf, depending on size and submarket.

  • Flex space trending higher near $17/psf.

Multifamily:

  • Average rents:

    • Dallas: $1,552/unit

    • Fort Worth: $1,488/unit

4. Market Drivers & Insights

  • Strong Job Growth: DFW added ~42,000 jobs in Q1; unemployment at 3.2% (vs. 4.1% U.S. avg).

  • Tenant Flight-to-Quality: In the office sector, new deals are increasingly concentrated in Class-A, amenity-rich locations.

  • Industrial Pipeline: With nearly 60M SF under construction, expect some softening unless demand accelerates.

  • Investor Sentiment: Debt market volatility and insurance pricing are top-of-mind. Deals with strong basis or creative capital stacks are still getting done.
