We recommend talking to a commercial agent like us at least 12 months before you’re wanting to open. The reason is because often finding the right location can take 2-3 months, then there’s another 1-2 months of negotiation, followed by 6 months of construction/prep to get the space ready for move-in.

We’ve worked with restaurants, coffee shops, dentists, optometrists, yoga studios, bartenders, and many more. We are confident we can find you the perfect space no matter your business type!

This can vary greatly depending on the current condition of the space as well as what you require for your buildout. Give us a call at 512-580-7800 to discuss what concept you’re planning and we can give you specific guidance.

A lease in a retail space is usually 5 – 10 years. It’s dependent on what you require as a tenant, which is something we can discuss with you in detail.

Yes – the Landlord will oftentimes pay for a portion of construction costs. This is referred to as Tenant Improvement Allowance. It’s part of what we’ll negotiate as your brokers.

The average rent is greatly dependent on the location and quality of the building. Lower quality spaces will rent for $15 to 25 per square foot, while high quality spaces will rent for $30 to 45 per square foot. To calculate the monthly rental rate, take the total SF times the $/SF rental rate, then divide by 12.
