Methodology: median asking price per desk per month for actively marketed, priced flexible-office listings on flex.squarefoot.com, August 2026. Prices are all-in — furniture, internet, utilities, and reception included. Updated as inventory changes.
Inventory is deep (49 priced listings across 341 active) and skews toward value: a quarter of the market sits under $249/desk.
