Should I Hire or Lease a Private Office?

Focus and efficiency are the key to success when it comes to business. Distractions, hurdles, and unnecessary complications can halt progress and get in the way of making those important decisions. Traditional office spaces may have their perks but can also come with a wealth of issues that get in the way of what’s important. While working from home or your local coffee house can have its perks, having a dedicated private location to do your work can be great for productivity. If you’re unsure of what you need, read on.

Hiring a Private Office – What You Need to Know

Hiring an office has a variety of perks, some that may not even seem too obvious. Hiring your private office makes life much easier for businesses, as they don’t need to worry about things such as decorating, furnishing or even worrying about regular utilities such as water or power. All of this is dealt with in your rental, leaving you with peace of mind and a stylish, modern workplace to focus on what’s important.

Hiring private offices means the space also comes with additional staff such as cleaners, reception and even security, to keep your office space and your team working without having to worry about the day-to-day things, giving you even more peace of mind.

The Ins and Outs of Leasing a Private Office

Leasing your own business spaces is a much more long term dedication than hiring. While you won’t own the business, you will be responsible for the day to day running, upkeep and general ownership of the space during your lease. If you decide to lease, you need to understand and decide on the length of time you plan on leasing, how much space you need (as well as how much space you think you’ll need in the future) and insurance for your building, staff and the contents.

On top of this, you’ll need to understand how much furniture, equipment, and utilities you require for your location. Things like water, power, heat, and internet will need to be in place before you and your team move in so you can begin working with no major interruptions. These things are all covered and in-place with office hires, giving you one less thing to worry about.

Which Option is Best for Me?

Whichever you decide to choose really comes down to whatever your needs are. If you’re looking to build a HQ based on a specific location, with plans to expand and lots of time to develop the space, leasing could be for you. If you need a quick work space fast with little to no complications, then hiring a pre-existing space is definitely the best choice. This offers you the flexibility to move your teams schedule around without feeling like you’re wasting space. It also means if you’re team is working hybrid, you’ll need less space overall, and therefore can save on additional costs. Whereas with a lease, you’ll need a specific amount of space for your team, and you’ll have less flexibility to either grow or downsize based on the amount of staff members in the office at one time.
