An annual report from Texas-based real estate firm Weitzman showed higher year-over-year vacancies within the Flower Mound submarket in 2025.
The data was included in a report published following Weitzman’s 2026 Annual Forecast, an event where Executive Managing Director Bob Young presented a look back at the retail market’s performance in 2025 along with a forecast for 2026. The report has information on vacancy, an inventory of commercial space and new construction over the last year.
The overview
In the Flower Mound submarket, the 2025 year-end vacancy rate for commercial space was 3.41%, an increase from the 2.58% vacancy rate at the end of 2024, per the report.
Additionally, there was no change in the amount of gross leasable area in the Flower Mound submarket, according to the report. The year-end gross leasable area for 2024 and 2025 was nearly 3.65 million square feet.
Across Dallas-Fort Worth the occupancy rate in retail space for 2025 was 95.3%, according to previous reporting. The occupancy rate was an increase from 2024 when it was 95.1%.
“We are truly in a great market,” Young said. “Even when we face challenges, we face them together. We use the term 'coopetition' for the way our industry and our cities work together for the region's greater good.”
What else?
Weitzman’s report is put together by surveying over 1,440 shopping centers across Dallas-Fort Worth, per previous reporting.
