You also need to feel comfortable taking your time and even potentially being left alone in the common areas or surrounding businesses. Most tours are fine with this.
PAY ATTENTI TENTION TO THE LIT O THE LITTLE SPACES
You need enough space to hold your equipment. This is often overlooked when it seems there is enough space for all employees. Server rooms, water coolers, printer areas, and closets are important. If you lack space, getting storage or making these additions can get pricey. Be on the lookout for this.
MAKE SURE THE KITCHEN AND C CHEN AND CONFERENCE AREAS ARE IN GOOD SHAPE
People always check the office space where actual work takes place and the bathrooms. The kitchen and other meeting areas can get overlooked. If there is a lobby, that is sometimes overlooked as well. These areas will let you know how many improvements you may have to make after you buy the place. Sometimes that can be a deal-breaker. The entrance or lobby is important for attracting talent and clients. First impressions make all the difference. Your space exists to show off your staff and your company culture and potential clients might already have a feel for that. Your common area and lobby are factors that they haven’t seen yet. Those areas can have negative effects on your client’s thoughts about your company. If a maintenance staff hasn’t kept up with it, you will probably want to get a new company for that if you chose that property.
