Raynham office space.
A fit for your business.

Separate the deposit, fit-out and recurring charges. Review repairs and improvements, the term, renewal and exit responsibilities. Do not assume a leased office needs little initial cash or can be vacated without further obligations.

Discuss equity, borrowing and tax questions with the appropriate advisers. Inspect maintenance needs and the approvals for planned changes. If taking tenants in unused area, allow for vacancy and management rather than relying on uninterrupted income.

Tell our commercial team the address, usable area, condition and occupancy. Explain whether you want a tenant, a sale or either option, and when the business needs its next workspace.

Class A, B and C labels can help organize an office search, but they do not establish a particular building’s condition or suitability. Compare the actual suite, elevators, heating and cooling, security, management, parking and internet service. Ask which services are included and which cost extra.

Ask for the quoted area, rent period, base rent and separate operating charges. Compare utilities, parking, repairs, improvements and deposits, not just the headline rent. Discuss the term, renewal, expansion and sublease terms with our commercial team and have your attorney review the proposed agreement.

If you expect to occupy the property for years, compare a purchase with leasing. Review financing, taxes, insurance, maintenance and required improvements with the appropriate professionals. Ownership does not guarantee lower costs, tax savings or appreciation; renting unused space to others also requires review of the property and agreement.

If you own an office suite, building or mixed-use property, send our team its address, floor area, current use, occupancy and your sale or leasing plans. We can discuss how to describe the premises and compare relevant properties. Do not treat an old asking price, regional vacancy figure or growth forecast as today’s value.
