On the supply side, only 50,000 square feet of space is expected to be added throughout the year, focusing nearly all of the new demand on existing space.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, improved vacancies translate into higher rents. According to Marcus &amp; Millichap, asking rents will rise 2.1 percent to $26.14 per square foot, this as effective rents tick up 3.1 percent to $21.40 per square foot, as can be viewed in the chart on the left.<\/p>\n<p><em>Charts courtesy of Marcus &amp; Millichap<\/em><\/p>\n<p>For more news from Austin, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.multihousingnews.com\/news\/south\/markey-snapshot\">click here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Camelia Bulea, Associate Editor<br \/>\nThe Austin office market showed signs of healthy absorption in the second quarter of this year, as nearly 219,000 square feet of office space were leased by companies like Cirrus Logic Inc., Whole Foods Market Inc.
