Is Your Lease Ending Soon?

It’s that time of year, where leases are ending for corporations and small businesses, thus leading them to search for new work space.

There are many struggles when signing a new lease. First, the size. How do you know the size of the space you will need going forward, especially during a pandemic? Right now, the majority of people are still working from home. Most companies do not want to lock into a 3-5 year lease with 2,000-4,000 sq. ft. if they are unsure of whether that space will be utilized. Executive suites are large spaces that can be difficult to fill when their employees are working from home for a large portion of their work week. This will cause decision makers to look long and hard about their next lease of space.

Another difficulty of signing a new lease is the lack of flexibility. Most commercial leases require you to lock into a minimum of 3-5 years for office space. This length of lease completely minimizes the flexibility a company has when looking towards their future. If work from home continues, even part time, then the office space won’t be fully utilized the first year. Locking into an agreement of significant length only allows for minimal flexibility for companies.

Lastly, there comes a number of extra costs that affect the bottom line. Furnishing an office is one of the highest price tags for a new lease. Even if a company is just moving spaces, moving that furniture is costly. Will it all get used? Should we downsize? Can we afford it all? These are some of the questions being asked. Another added expenditure is Wi-Fi. Business class Wi-Fi adds another cost item to the lease. Air conditioning, cleaning services, parking, coffee, all of these items add up. These line items are necessary but expensive. Add everything together and companies are looking at a high initial cost and monthly rate.
