Your guide to cheap office space

If you’re a freelancer, entrepreneur or small business looking to take that step from home to office, cost can be a factor that holds you back. However, there is such as a thing as cheap office space. Whether you're in London, another big business hub such as Manchester or Birmingham, or in a smaller town or village, Office Genie has desk space all over the UK.

It’s important to remember the idea of renting desk space really blossomed thanks to the recession, as laid-off workers began to work from home and those who had made them redundant found they had spare office space to let. This means many in the business are acutely aware of the need for a cheap office to let.

Getting the most from a cheap office to rent

If you’re looking for cheap office space for rent, your best option may be a traditional leased rented office. Deals tend to be long (years, not months) and you need to provide and be responsible for everything from security to furniture and amenities. But in return, you’ll find the most inexpensive rates per square foot.

However, this doesn’t mean you’re getting value for money for your business. Taking space in a shared or serviced commercial building may cost a little more, but a lot of admin time and hassle can be avoided. Why employ people to do admin when it can be included in the price of your rented deskspace?

So while long time leased office space may seem like a bargain, in truth other costs can add up and the lack of a flexible lease may also hinder rather than help. If your business expands, or contracts, will that long term lease become a burden?

Cheap office rental locations

If you still haven’t found cheap office space to let, it might be worth considering a different location for your business or desk. Do you need to be quite as close, or in quite so fashionable a neighbourhood?
