How Can You Benefit from DC Shared Office Space?

Written by Metro Admin | 02/08/2011

Times are changing and the best choice for DC office space is no longer a traditional office location. In the past, it was typical that entrepreneurs had two alternatives for their business location: home or an expensive traditional office space. In more recent times, DC executive suites became popular, giving businesses of every size the benefits of flexibility, administrative support, and a turnkey professional environment. The latest development in DC office space for rent is shared office space.

Like executive suites, shared office space gives a company a nearly instant business address. However, there is a core difference between these two types of office space.

Shared office space generally refers to excess space within an existing company’s building. If for some reason a business has extra space, it can recoup some of its expenses by sub-leasing that space to another business. Executive suites are managed businesses that divide large work spaces to lease as individual offices.

What are the benefits of using shared office space?

  • Shared office space creates a more efficient environment amongst members of the business.
  • Shared office space is less expensive than traditional office space.
    • No need to spend money at other office locations
    • Internet and phone costs are shared
    • Cost of receptionist or administrative assistant is shared
  • Shared office space allows you to rent out any part of your space from a desk to an office. This is a great option for start-up companies who are adding to their business frequently and need to increase space.
  • Shared office space provides all the amenities needed for business.
    • Kitchen, conference rooms
    • Furnished office space
    • Convenience
