He represents tenants, owners, sellers, buyers and investors. | Austin metro industrial vacancy | **~15–16% (near record)** | | --- | --- | | South Austin flex asking rent | **~$19/SF NNN** | | Southeast submarket vacancy | **~25–28%** | | Metro industrial cap rate | **~7.5%** | Metro and submarket figures from third-party reports, Q1–Q3 2026. Sources below. ## What's happening in San Marcos Labor comes from both metros, distribution reaches both, and the cost basis is below either. San Marcos industrial trades at wider caps than South Austin, which is why passive buyers and 1031 exchangers priced out of Austin look here. ## What it means for owners For a sale-leaseback, a San Marcos business with a long track record on a 10-year lease is a clean story. Set the rent at true market, not above, or the buyer discounts the credit. ## What it means for tenants Mid-corridor locations let you serve both metros. Compare drive times as carefully as rents. ## What it means for investors Corridor yields with Austin and San Antonio demand. Underwrite the tenant credit; this is where yield-chasing buyers overpay for weak tenants. ## San Marcos: common questions ### Does being halfway between Austin and San Antonio help my building's value? Yes. Buyers treat the corridor as one market, and 1031 buyers priced out of Austin look here. Set your sale-leaseback rent at true market so the buyer doesn't discount it.
