Leasing An Executive Suite Versus Lease Or Buy Office Space In Dallas
The small business owner or manager of a satellite or branch
office of a larger company is faced with many decisions when
considering their office space in the Dallas � Fort Worth (DFW)
Texas metro business area.
These decisions include:
Where do I locate within this large geographic metroplex?
� Do I locate close to my customers?
� Do I locate centrally to my employees� homes?
� Do I need easy access to the expressway system or the area
airports to accommodate customer visits?
The answers to these questions are complicated by the diversity
of your employee or customer locations within a 12-county region
made up of Dallas, Fort Worth and 126 other municipalities
including the fast growing business centers contained within
Las Colinas, Irving, Grapevine, Garland, Frisco, Plano,
Southlake, Westlake, Coppell and Lewisville. A geographic area
encompassing 9,000 square miles might require multiple office
locations to adequately serve or cover your markets.
How much working capital will I have to commit towards an
office facility, furniture, equipment and my supporting
administrative functions?
How much time will it require of my management resources to
find, hire, equipment and train my required administrative
functions?
How will I accommodate or plan for increases or decreases in my
office space requirements?
This is working capital and management time which would be put
to better use for prospecting for new customers or markets or
to better service existing customers.
The advantages of using an executive suite management company
within the Dallas �Fort Worth business region include:
� Quick, easy possession, often within a business day or two.
� Short periods of commitment � as short as three or six month
commitments are generally available.
� Expansion possible within the building or across locations
which makes incremental growth or downsizing much easier.
� No capital outlay beyond a security deposit is required.
In short summary, the answer for most small business owners or
professionals and many branch or satellite office managers is
not to lease a traditional office space, equipment it and staff
it; but rather, to lease space from an executive suite company
located within the Dallas and Fort Worth metroplex.
