The office space rental market is generally defined by the quality of the office building and ranked accordingly. Click on the links to learn more about the types of office spaces.
Class A Houston office space listings
are the highest quality office space or buildings available for lease typically characterized as buildings that have excellent location and access, attract high quality tenants, and are managed professionally. Most Class A office buildings provide office space for lease and have tenants in various sized office suites. Building materials are high quality and rents are competitive with other new buildings.
Generally speaking, offices in downtown Houston, The Galleria, and Greenway Plaza with huge, expensive lobbies are examples of Class A office space. Typically occupied by upper end businesses, such as law firms, financial firms, and oil companies, they exude a level of financial success.
Class B Houston office space listings
are the second highest quality of buildings available in the office space rental market. These buildings also offer office space for rent suite by suite. Class B buildings have good (versus excellent) locations, management, and construction, and tenant standards are high. Buildings should have very little functional obsolescence and deterioration.
In practical terms, Class B buildings would be located near the high-end, Class A buildings. They are generally smaller and a bit older.
Class C Houston office space listings
are typically 15 to 25 years old, but maintain steady occupancy. A fair number of the Class C office spaces in the inventory are not truly office buildings but rather walk-up office spaces above retail or service businesses.

There are many variations of types of office leases. Click on the links to learn about the types of office leases.
-
Full Service Office Lease
is also known as a Gross Lease. This is a type of lease, where the property owner/landlord is responsible for all building expenses. This type of lease is typically more favorable to the tenant.
Net Office Lease
The tenant pays the rent plus a portion of the maintenance fees, insurance premiums and other operating expenses.
Triple Net Office Lease
A lease in which the lessee pays rent to the lessor, as well as all taxes, insurance, and maintenance expenses that arise from the use of the property.
Gross Office Lease
The tenant pays a set amount of rent and the landlord is responsible for payment of taxes, insurance and other costs associated with owning the property.
Shopping Center Office Leases
The tenant pays a base rate in conjunction with the square footage of the retail facility. Typically, the tenant will also pay some common charges and frequently a certain percentage of the gross sales. The tenant may also be assessed part of the property taxes. A shopping mall lease will often include terms about signage, hours of operations, common areas and deliveries. The landlord may also have the right to relocate the tenant.
Land or Ground Office Lease
The tenant leases the grounds and builds on the property. Typically, with a land or ground lease, all improvements on the property, including any building or buildings revert back to the landowner at the end of the lease period.
