By the Numbers: Miami claims highest office asking rents in the US
The U.S. city with the highest asking rent is not the Big Apple or Silicon Valley — it’s Miami.
The Magic City logged an average asking rent of $59.66 per square foot, besting New York’s $50.56 per square foot, according to an analysis by commercial listings platform LoopNet, which looked at 5,000 office listings across 50 markets as of March 2026. The report is new for the firm.
New York’s figure encompasses the entire city, not just Manhattan, whose office leasing market has been on a hot streak so far this year. Data from commercial real estate research firm Yardi Matrix shows the asking price for Manhattan alone coming in at $69.29 in May, the highest in the country. Miami’s was third, at $58.41.
