4worldlovers: When is the right time to move your business? It is no less taxing a decision if you are working from the kitchen table, looking at the renewal of your lease or currently in a serviced office where the service is not excellent or they do not have space for you to expand.

Does your business have a clear growth strategy for the next five years? If so planning your next office move should be straightforward? Or is it? What happens if the economic outlook changes? What is your plan B if your growth strategy does not succeed? Is there any future that you can see where you may need to cut your business expenses to keep your business lean?

Taking a serviced office lease - what do I need to know?

A lease generally requires a commitment of three to five years. The longer you sign for the larger the potential rent free period you can negotiate with the landlord. However, rent-free periods are generally only available in times of economic uncertainty or if the space has been vacant for a while. Therefore, the fact that you can get a rent-free period should be a trigger for you to review your plan to rent office space on a lease basis carefully.

If you are not in a lease currently the upfront costs must be considered, a little like moving out of home for the first time. You will possibly have an agent find you the space and they will charge you a fee, you will have to engage a lawyer for the lease negotiations, you will be required to pay a deposit unless your business has a lot of cash in the bank and a strong balance sheet. The running costs of a leased office space are different to a serviced office, you will be required to pay your rent and service charge quarterly in advance on the quarter date which will probably fall in line with your VAT ¼ making it quite expensive! You have business rates payable to the local council which are currently running at around 48% of the rateable value. In London some areas rates have increased by 100%, these get reviewed every five years, 2017 is currently a review year. You will have to purchase or lease all of the necessary equipment and furniture for your new offices. If you have cash then purchasing is easy, if you wish to save your cash for more important aspects of your business, you may consider leasing. Leasing really helps your cash-flow, but, you will be committing to a monthly expense for three to five years (make sure you do it in line with your lease commitment! You don’t want to be paying for something that you are not using at the end of your lease!). You will be buying furniture, possibly partitioning the space to your specific needs, possibly decorating, kitchen and bathroom equipment, office equipment such as photocopiers, telephone system, internet lines, phone lines. Then you have the contracts required to run the space i.e. Health and Safety, cleaning, maintenance etc.

Office Space in Town can help you do a comparison between leased and serviced office space costs over the three to five-year period. This will really help you see the bottom line costs to your business.

You can look at sharing space with another company, either a supplier or client who you are closely aligned with culturally and commercially. This works well for some companies.

Co-working space. This covers a multitude of options which you can see discussed in more detail at How to choose co-working space.

Serviced offices. This flexible office space option has been around since the late 70s. Barrister’s chambers, however, are the original serviced office and have been around much longer; Barristers are self-employed but rent an office in a building that has a Clerk to assist them, all costs are equally shared out amongst the barristers each month. This is, in essence, the serviced office concept. The only real difference is that where the Chambers are not for profit, the majority of serviced office operators are. The non-profit organisations are called innovation centres and are run by either local councils or Universities.
