Whether or not you wish to lease your first basic commercial office space, or are planning to upgrade or downscale your current building, there are certainly a few very helpful factors to think about prior to making a contractual pledge.
Below is a 5 point checklist which may be employed as a swift reminder when under-going the process of looking at properties, and working with professional letting agents:
1. Come up with a definite decision regarding your optimum monthly/annual budget, and stick to it. It is rather easy to get sucked in to contemplating a more impressive business office set up than you'll be able to comfortably pay for, and in this difficult economic climate this will not be wise. Do your sums, establish a maximum amount for your company expenditure and follow it.
2. Make sure you have done your preparation regarding the workable geographical locations from which to base your company. You might be lured by places you hadn't previously considered, so a little bit of prior research into all potential places that could work effectively as a base may help. Remember to consider areas slightly out of town. Not only do these developments work out much less expensive but they often have many other enviable aspects for instance; convenient car parking and a lot more surrounding grounds.
3. What about transportation? How easy might it be for your personnel to get to and from work? How is the car parking, is street access good and how about buses and trains? This will be of importance to both staff members and any visiting clients you may have. It can be a great idea to check transportation at off-peak times as well as the rush hour.
4. What had been your overall initial impressions of the business development? Is the building looking worn out or do you find it fresh and very well decorated? This is once again of importance for both staff members and visiting clientele. Staff Members need to work in this building each day and clients may possibly make a judgement, based on the standard of your place of work.
