Tulsa Commercial Real Estate Market

Tulsa's CRE market has been revitalized by a combination of public investment and the Tulsa Remote program, which attracted thousands of remote workers with $10,000 relocation incentives and generated new demand for multifamily and retail space. The Gathering Place, a $465 million riverfront park funded by the George Kaiser Family Foundation, has catalyzed development in the surrounding Riverside and Brookside neighborhoods. The Blue Dome and East Village entertainment districts anchor downtown's hospitality and office market, while the Tulsa Port of Catoosa — one of the nation's largest inland ports — drives industrial demand along the Arkansas River corridor. Office vacancy has been elevated in legacy Class B properties, but adaptive reuse conversions to residential and mixed-use have absorbed much of that inventory.

Key Economic Drivers

  • Tulsa Remote program drawing remote workers and boosting multifamily and retail demand in midtown neighborhoods
  • George Kaiser Family Foundation investments including the Gathering Place and downtown redevelopment
  • Tulsa Port of Catoosa inland waterway port supporting industrial and logistics facilities
  • American Airlines maintenance base and aerospace employers along the north Tulsa corridor

Market Insight

Tulsa's Opportunity Zone designations cover a large portion of the north Tulsa and downtown corridors, and the city has paired these with local incentive programs that have attracted over $1 billion in new development commitments since 2019.
