Planning an Office Move in the coming year?
How to Plan a Successful Office Move
As we say goodbye to last year and look forward to the dawn of a brand new year, many businesses will be looking closely at their real estate strategies and reviewing whether their current office space meets all their requirements.
When reviewing your office space requirements, the cost of your office space will be an overriding deciding factor of whether to stay where you are, or look for better and cheaper office accommodation close by. It's always worth contacting a local Tenant Rep Broker to establish what the recent market rents have been achieved in your area. This will help you to establish whether you can get a better deal elsewhere for the rent you are paying.
Planning an office move involves a great deal of thought and organization so ensure you allow yourself enough time to establish goals, budgets and timeframes. It's wise to start planning your office move for next year as early as possible, best practice suggests 9-18 months prior to lease expiry. HelpMovingOffice.com has a full suite of FREE Office Move Checklists to help you organize your office move successfully.
If you do decide to stay put, don't forget to dig out your office lease and check the terms by which you can renew your lease, as the rent may not necessarily stay the same, so you'll need a good Tenant Rep Broker to re-negotiate a favorable office rent and lease terms on your behalf.
Whether you are moving office or renewing your existing office lease, find a Tenant Rep Broker in your area who has good negotiation skills to secure the best deal on your behalf.
Use the Office Move Checklist to guide you through how to plan an office move in the coming year.
