Find commercial space for lease in Colleyville, TX
Commercial space for lease in Colleyville sits mostly on one road: the city's FY22 budget says "Approximately 85 percent of the City’s commercial properties are located along Colleyville Boulevard (SH26)." Community Impact reported a market median rent rate of $27 per square foot and overall occupancy of 93%. This page walks the search in order: use, district, building, certificate of occupancy, lease.
Start with the use, in the code's words
Before you tour anything, name your business the way the city's table names it. Colleyville lists every use by district in the Section 3.24 Schedule of Permitted Uses. The General Business Offices not elsewhere listed row shows P under CPO, CN, CC1, CC2 and CC3, and S under ML. Real Estate Agency Offices carry the same pattern, and so do Attorney Offices. Physician’s or Dentist’s Offices follow it too, with their own parking group.
The letters decide your timeline. A P "indicates that the use is allowed by right as the principal use". An S "indicates that the use may be allowed with the approval by the City Council of a Special Use Permit". An empty cell "indicates that the land use is prohibited in the applicable zoning district" unless a Planned Unit Development, a Special Use Permit or Section 3.6.B allows it.
Most tenants here are small. Community Impact reported that "91% of businesses in Colleyville have less than 20 employees." Write down your use, your headcount and the hours you keep. Those three answers decide the district, the parking and whether a council approval sits between you and opening day. Practices should read the medical office guide next.
Can I run a business from home in Colleyville?
Sometimes, and that answer can save you a lease. The code says "Home occupation uses and activities shall be limited to the following: seamstress; accounting; bookkeeping and tax services; notary public; insurance and real estate;" The list goes on "but excluding medical and law offices, auto repair, beauty shops, pet grooming services, kennels and other such activities."
Not more than twenty-five (25) percent of the floor area of the dwelling unit shall be used in the conduct of the home occupation. No person other than members of the family residing on the premises shall be engaged in such occupation. The sign rule allows nothing "other than one sign, not exceeding one (1) square foot in area, non-illuminated, and mounted flat against the wall of the principal building."
The day you hire someone outside the household, or need to meet clients under a real sign, the home office stops working. Start the space search before that day, not after it.
Which zoning districts allow offices in Colleyville?
Six commercial districts carry the office rows: Section 3.17 CPO, Professional Office Commercial; Section 3.18 CN, Neighborhood Commercial; Section 3.19 CC-1, Village Retail; Section 3.20 CC-2, Shopping Center; Section 3.21 CC-3, Highway Commercial; and Section 3.22 ML, Light Manufacturing. Offices are allowed by right in CPO, CN, CC1, CC2 and CC3 and need a Special Use Permit in ML.
Each district comes with its own conditions. A Chapter 3 table row reads "CPO Professional Office Commercial No 8’ Daytime only." The code expects that "Village Retail centers will be built without a major anchor store and be located near but not at major street intersections."
Ask the city for the district of every address on your shortlist before the second tour. If you keep evening hours, ask planning staff in writing what the daytime entry covers. A storefront user should read the retail guide; a user who wants to build should read the land guide. See office space, retail space and commercial land.
Parking requirements for commercial space in Colleyville
Parking regulations are based on the gross floor area (GFA) of the building. Table 3.24.B assigns the General Business Offices not elsewhere listed row to parking group 8, which the Parking Group Schedule sets at "1 per 300 sq. ft. of gross floor area". The Physician’s or Dentist’s Offices row is assigned to group 7, set at "1 per 200 sq. ft. of gross floor area".
There is a relief valve, with a cost in time. A reduction "may be authorized after approval of a Special Use Permit by the City Council when associated with new development or a significant change in use of an existing building or site."
Ask the landlord how many spaces the building has and how many are already promised to other tenants. Apply your use's ratio to your floor area and compare. A suite that parked the last tenant may not park you.
Where along SH 26 do offices fit?
The city's FY22 budget says "the roadway serves as a true main street for Colleyville." Its 2015 plan, in Action 9.14, says to "Focus on attracting sales-tax generating uses at intersections and professional or medical office uses at mid-block locations." A TxDOT count station on SH 26 inside the city limits recorded an annual average daily traffic of 29,175 in the 2025 report year. In November 2021, Community Impact reported "According to Mark Wood, Colleyville assistant city manager, the TxDOT project is complete."
In January 2026, Community Impact reported that council approved 2.81 acres at 105 Professional Court and 5301 Colleyville Boulevard to be replatted from two lots to five lots for future office development. It said "The property is currently undeveloped and zoned for office use". In February 2025, Community Impact reported that City Council approved a Planned Unit Development request Feb. 18. That property is 4.31 acres at 6521 Colleyville Blvd. The development includes three buildings with 23 suites averaging 3,600 square feet. The report named "professional service businesses such as attorneys and boutique retail businesses." It said "Construction is expected to start quarter four and finish quarter three of 2026". Our October 2026 research did not find whether that schedule held.
Across the city, Community Impact reported "82,989 square feet of construction currently underway and another 175,000 square feet planned". If you want to build rather than lease, the City of Colleyville Land Development Code says no building permit shall be issued unless the property has been platted of record.
An appointment-driven office can take a mid-block suite and save on rent; a business that lives on walk-in trade should pay for the corner. For a space that is not built yet, ask the landlord for a delivery date in the lease and what happens if it slips.
How much is commercial rent in Colleyville, TX?
Community Impact reported that "Colleyville has increased its retail occupancy rate to 96%", according to an economic development update presented Oct. 5. From that update it reported "The market median rent rate in Colleyville is $27 per square foot" and "Overall occupancy in Colleyville is 93%." In a March 2026 report, Community Impact said that "The occupancy rate for retail and restaurants in The Village jumped from 63% in January 2025 to 88.3% in January 2026".
When the city moved its business center, Community Impact reported "The city will pay $19.30 per square foot a year with a 4% annual increase and the Chamber will pay $22.50 per square foot a year with a 4% annual increase." Our October 2026 research did not find published asking rents by building or by property type in Colleyville.
A median is not a quote. Ask each landlord for the asking rent, what it includes, the annual increase and the improvement allowance, then compare offers on total cost over the term.
Small suites, coworking and planned office projects in Colleyville
If you need one office, not a floor, there are smaller options. Community Impact reported that Colleyville City Council approved a lease at 35 Veranda Lane in The Village to relocate the business center, "leaving the remaining eight offices and one conference room available for businesses to rent out." At the time, it said "There is currently a waiting list for those interested in renting space in the new business center". In a May 2024 report, Community Impact said "My Favorite Place co-working space opened in Colleyville on April 1." Its listed address is 5121 Thompson Terrace, Ste. B, Colleyville.
The executive suites guide covers furnished offices and month-to-month terms.
Do I need a certificate of occupancy in Colleyville?
Yes, whenever the use or occupant changes. The code says no non-residential building, or portion thereof, or parcel of land shall change in use or occupancy until a certificate of occupancy has been issued by the City. Application for a certificate of occupancy shall be made to the Building Inspection Office. No connection to the City utility systems shall be allowed unless and until a certificate of occupancy has been issued by the City Inspector.
If the suite needs work, permits come before the certificate. A site plan shall be submitted for review and approval to the Administrative Official prior to the issuance of a building permit. The city's building inspection page says "Over-the-counter submittals are not accepted" and "The established goal is to complete plan reviews within seven (7) working days". Building Inspections lists its address as 100 Main Street, Colleyville, TX 76034.
The city lists a SIGN grant among its programs, and its page says "businesses may be eligible for grant money to put towards the design, purchase, permitting, and installation of a commercial sign." It says participants "can receive a grant for half (50%) of the total project cost, not to exceed $5,000." And "No grant will be awarded for work that has already been initiated or completed."
Apply for any grant before the sign goes up. Then settle these with the landlord before you sign:
- Who files the permit and the certificate application, and who pays for work the inspector requires.
- When rent starts if the certificate is late, and whether that is written into the lease.
- How many parking spaces are assigned to your suite, in writing.
- The renewal option and the notice window to exercise it.
The zoning and permits guide covers the permit steps in more detail.
