Notable trends.

Office vacancy remains tight in both county submarkets, at 3.5% in Comal and 3.4% in Guadalupe.

Retail fundamentals are the corridor bright spot, with 2.2% to 2.3% vacancy and positive annual absorption in both counties.
Multifamily remains supply pressured, with vacancy above 18% in both submarkets and negative asking rent growth.
Development PipelineCoStar reports 130K SF of office, 406.7K SF of Comal logistics industrial, 516.8K SF of Guadalupe industrial, 53,950 SF of retail, and 672 multifamily units under construction across the supplied Comal and Guadalupe reports.
Investment OutlookThe corridor should be underwritten sector by sector. Retail and office show tight occupancy, industrial requires county-level scrutiny, and multifamily opportunities should account for elevated vacancy, concessions, and lease-up timing.
