## FAQ
### How much new trophy supply was delivered 2022-2025?
Downtown alone received 4M+ sqft of new Class A trophy delivery, much of it speculative. Absorption has lagged delivery, driving the elevated vacancy reading.

Trophy rents have softened modestly from 2022 peaks but remain materially above the pre-2018 baseline. Stabilization at $58-$65/sqft trophy is the working assumption.

### What is the Domain submarket?
Domain is Austin's premier suburban mixed-use trophy market — Apple, Indeed, Facebook satellites, plus deep retail and residential.
