If you are
in the market to lease office space, there are a couple of questions
that you will want to ask the property manager before you sign a
lease. These questions will help to ensure that you get what you
want in your new office, and they will also help to make sure that
you do not have any unexpected problems down the road. Try to
anticipate anything that could come up in the future and plan for it
now. Ask alot of questions so that it is clear what you are getting
into.
The number one problem that people make when they go to lease office
space is that they do not ask enough questions. This often leads to
misinformation, and a feud somewhere down the road. So do yourself a
favor and ask these questions before you decide to sign a lease for
your next office space.
How much is the monthly lease, and what does it include?
This is a very important question to ask because not every lease is
going to be the same. Just because your last office building
included electric into the lease does not mean that your new lease
will. Your new office could include other "extras" that will make
the lease payment price more attractive to you.
Is Internet included?
Your firm more than likely requires an Internet connection to
operate. First off you need to find out if the Internet bill is
included in your monthly lease. And from there, you also need to
find out how you will be getting your Internet access. Make sure
that you can get a high speed hook up. You may not be able to get it
in some complexes. This is especially important to check out because
it varies so much from place to place.
What happens if I have to break the lease?
Make sure you know what your obligation is if you have to break your
lease. You never know what is going to happen. Your company could go
under, or you may end up having to relocate to another state. Make
sure you have this in writing, so you can make a smooth exit if
anything goes irrepairably wrong.
What is the term of the contract?
Some leases are on an annual basis and some are 5, 10, 25 or even 99
year leases. You must weigh the term with your business objectives.
Some office space is rented on a month to month basis.
If you ask these questions before you lease office space, you should
be in good shape. The most important thing to remember is that when
you go to lease office space you need to ask any question that may
present a problem down the line.
