PARKING FOR EMPLOYEES LONG-TERM IS IMPORTANT

If your company could potentially grow, make sure there will always be enough parking to suit them. Employees who can’t find decent parking for work will not respond well. If there are neighboring businesses, see how many are allotted to your space. It should be enough to expand into if you need to eventually. This would be something very hard to work around, so be sure to get the details on parking on your first tour.

SEE WHO THE S O THE SURROUNDING BUSINESSES ARE

Your neighbors can impact your business every day. If there is a competitor near you, you may not like that (or you could). You could be near a doctor’s office or dentist, with patients coming and going so much. It may seem like a small distraction. But even if it seems small, it’s something that will annoy you and your employees over the years. Take note of it and weigh it against other options.

CHECK THE SPACE'S TECHNOLOGICAL COMPATIBILITY

Don’t blindly think you won’t have to spend anything to get the space up to meet your technological needs. That happens often, causing companies to go over budget when building their space after a purchase. Getting wires set up and server rooms built can cost a good chunk of change. See how many outlets there are. Those aren’t cheap to build-out. That is important because you don’t want to short-circuit anything.
