If you're opening, expanding, or relocating a business into Frisco, the first thing you need is the real numbers — not the listing teaser. Here's what commercial space actually costs in this market in 2026, and where the leverage is.
The 2026 Rate Card
Class A office: $30–$35+ per SF, with urban-core premium space at the top of the range.
Retail: $34–$37 per SF on average — anchor-adjacent space commands more.
Citywide commercial average: roughly $31 per SF.
Restaurant and F&B: market rate plus tenant improvement allowance — heavily negotiable.
What NNN Actually Means for Your P&L
Nearly every Frisco retail and office lease is triple-net: you pay base rent plus taxes, insurance, and common-area maintenance. A $34/SF listing is not your real occupancy cost — NNN charges add meaningfully on top. I model total occupancy cost, not sticker rent, before my clients tour a single space.
The TI Allowance Is Where Deals Are Won
Landlords rarely move much on base rent — it reprices their whole building. What they will negotiate: tenant improvement dollars, free rent months, and escalation structure. A strong TI package on a vanilla-box space can be worth more than a dollar off the rate. This is where representation pays for itself.
The Fields West Factor
The $2B Fields West district is already 70% pre-leased ahead of its 2027–28 openings, anchored by Bloomie's first Texas store and Mastro's first DFW location. Pre-construction conversations secure priority on size, location, and terms before delivery pricing firms. For businesses that want to be where Frisco's $189K-income households will shop and dine, the clock is running.
The Value Play: Second-Generation Space
While new districts price at a premium, second-generation restaurant and retail space — already built out by a previous tenant — can slash your buildout budget. There's real inventory of it across Frisco's established corridors, and it's how lean operators open fast.
