HOUSTON—The top-performing Katy Freeway East submarket stands in stark contrast to the broader Houston office market. It is on track to record its fourth consecutive year of positive net absorption.
JLL research provided insight as to why Katy Freeway East has remained relatively healthy compared to the rest of Houston's office market. For starters, it is a smaller submarket at only 5.6 million square feet, which means it can recover quicker from changes in vacancy by leasing up the vacant space faster. Secondly, none of the major oil companies have footprints in the submarket.
