The Eureka Retail Velocity Index™

Dallas-Fort Worth Retail Leasing Trends & Market Momentum

This Month:DFW retail leasing rebounded sharply in August, with several larger transactions lifting volume and average deal size while rents improved modestly and vacancy edged lower. However, longer lease-up periods and wide reported pricing differences across transactions reinforce a selective market where asset quality, location, and space configuration continue to drive outcomes.

The Eureka Retail Velocity Index™ is a proprietary monthly market intelligence product from Eureka Business Group tracking retail leasing activity, pricing momentum, vacancy compression, and negotiation leverage across the Dallas-Fort Worth market. The Eureka Retail Velocity Index™ is designed to provide actionable market intelligence for landlords, tenants, and investors operating in the middle-market retail segment. The index benchmarks current performance against trailing 12-month market averages to assess directional momentum.  The Velocity Score integrates leasing activity, pricing momentum, vacancy compression, and leasing efficiency. Scores range from 1.0 to 10.0. Data is collected from EBG proprietary leasing data and other sources such as CoStar® and CRExi®.
