Now, though, let’s talk about the following criteria to consider when choosing office space for rent:
- Demographics
- Convenience
- Costs
- Safety
- Amenities/infrastructure
- Competition
- Professional image
Let’s look at each of these in a bit more detail.
Demographics
Who is your target audience/customer? Where do they live? Where do they work? What areas do they frequent? In a perfect world, the office suite you choose will be located somewhere nearby regular traffic of your target audience.
Convenience of your office space
How easy is it to access your office space? Is it near major arterials? Does traffic flow easily in that particular area? Is there ample parking? The easier it is for your target audience/customer to access your office, the more likely they are to do exactly that.
Costs for office space for rent
Of course cost is important. Did you think this list wouldn’t include cost? You have an operating budget, and any office space you choose will have to fit into that budget, and not only the monthly rental cost, but also the cost of utilities and WiFi and any other secondary costs related to the location.
Safety of your chosen office suite location
Do not ignore the importance of safety of the location. Is it in a seedy part of town? Is it well-lit in that area? Are you close to a police and fire department presence? What is the response time of the police and emergency personnel in that area? These are things that may not seem important until they are, until they are needed in an emergency, and then they become very, very important to you and to your customers.
Amenities/infrastructure of office suites
How is the building itself? How structurally sound is it? And are there any amenities which are included in the lease agreement, like the number of parking spaces you are allowed, or possibly the utilities included in the rental fee?
Competition
Do you want your competition close by, or do you want them far away? Does it make any difference? On the flip side, are there related businesses which you would benefit from by being close by them i.e. a title insurance company nearby a commercial real estate office?
Professional image
And, finally, what does the office suite say about you as a business owner? Does it portray the image you wish to portray? Does it scream success and trustworthiness?
