FACTORS TO CONSIDER WHEN RENTING OFFICE SPACE.

By
 
office space in Kenya.
Do you want to find suitable, affordable and inspiring office space for your business to run effectively? When looking for office space for rent, you want to find the best possible premises for your business. The following factors should be consider when renting your office space:

Business Type.

Consider your company’s type of business always when selecting an office space. Different spaces may cater for different types of businesses. For instance, a downtown spot may not be the best choice if you are expecting frequent shipments of goods. On the other hand, if you’re a startup and are looking at shared offices, then one in a downtown hub may present opportunities for networking.

Location of the Business. 

The location of your office is important no matter what type of business you operate. Look for an office in a location that’s easy to get to and convenient for both employees and clients. Check to see if the nearby buildings are occupied with thriving businesses and whether the local neighborhood is safe. Also, ensure that your business is in the setting that will ensure you great exposure to potential clients.

Find out more about the space you are renting.

Learn about the space you are renting for example; confirm whether the landlord based the rate on actual square footage, whether the office includes space that is actually available. This is why it’s important to visit the office you’re considering and be sure the landlord shows you everything. When you’re looking to rent a workplace, go for the smaller offices in the building to begin then the landlord may just offer you incentives to rent a larger space once you’re already on the property.

 The best serviced offices.

Many small businesses prefer to rent shared, serviced offices that provide a range of services and facilities within the lease agreement. Shared facilities may include office furniture, WiFi, kitchens, lounge and storage areas as well as support such as security, concierges and receptionists.

Serviced offices are great for small business start-ups, allowing you to concentrate on the important task of growing your business without the financial outlay for furniture and equipment. Leases for a serviced office are typically shorter than those for conventional office spaces, so you can quickly change your premises depending on your business requirements.

 Design of the office.

Office space that you are choosing should match with your business brand, especially the designs. It should reflect your brand. You need to recognize first which kind of office floor design will suit best for your business.  Choose an employee friendly working space where employee bonding and team spirit can grow. Windows are to be covered as to prevent outside noises or disturbances to enter your office.  Each employee deserves his own space and try to provide them the same.

Hidden cost.

Check carefully in order to be conversant with what’s included in your lease. Budget for additional fees and costs. These may include utilities bills, construction costs, maintenance and repair costs, moving costs, insurance and VAT on rent. The topline figure on a lease doesn’t truly reflect what you’ll end up when renting office space.

Legal Requirements.

It is very important to speak with a lawyer before making any commitments whenever you are signing a lease. Once you sign a lease, you may be locked in to disagreeable terms. Speak with a lawyer before signing a lease to ensure that the agreement is in your favor and not heavily tilted towards the landlord.

Proximity.

How close your office space will be to your customers, competitors, suppliers and partners matter. When choosing an office space, you want to ensure that it has the right proximity for your company. This will differ from business to business. Ideally, you want to be as close to your customers as possible, with proximity to suppliers and partners being very important as well.
