Office Evolution’s Shared Workspace Appeals to Real Estate Professionals

TL;DR

Office Evolution's shared workspace appeals to real estate professionals, offering flexibility and space without a hefty monthly lease commitment. The company's area director in Atlanta, Andy Bean, highlights four reasons why the space is well received by real estate industry professionals.

As the shared work space trend continues on the up and up, Office Evolution is able to offer something different to local professionals in Alpharetta. Without the hassle of a hefty monthly lease and commitment to a space that is too big for what is needed, the co-work space allows a unique approach for professionals that are in need of a nice work environment but don’t want to commit to a full lease.

Often working outside of normal business hours in all areas of the city with a wide range of materials needed at each client visit, real estate professionals require flexibility and space, which are two key features of rental offices. Office Evolution is able to maximize on these two key elements and has been adopted widely as a resource for attorneys.

According to Andy Bean, Office Evolution’s area director in Atlanta, the Office Evolution space has proven to be extremely well received by real estate industry professionals. Bean offered the following four reasons for better insight as to why.

Professional Space for Closings

When it comes to the time when a real estate agent needs to provide a space for the closing, a home office just won’t cut it. The celebration requires a more elevated environment and there needs to be enough physical space for all of the paperwork that goes along with the closing. This is also the last impression the real estate agent will leave with the client before their professional relationship ends, and it is a good time to leave a professional image.

Lower Pricing Than Competitors

Office Evolution’s pricing options include month-to-month, six-month and year-long rentals. There’s a large advantage to real estate professionals who are working client by client, with times when business ramps up like during spring selling season, to have the option for an office for a certain pre-determined stretch but not after.

“Typical leases lock you in for a year, at the very least,” said Bean. “With a short-term lease like ours, you can pay for it once and you don’t have to worry about it staying on your balance sheet after that.”

Having a Business Address

Real estate agents are carrying around piles of documents day after day. Closing documents and notes from the real estate attorney. It’s so important that they have a safe place for documents to be sent and looked after.

“A P.O. box can scare off clients, who might see it as a sign that the business is not established,” said Bean. “Having a single, permanent and professional mailing address is essential.”

Option for Day Office

The office space needed one day is not necessarily the same space that a real estate professional will need every day. For example, some days it might just be the agent and the homeowner. Other days there might be an inspector, a real estate attorney and the entire family coming to meet together. From one case to the next, the type of space needed changes. Office Evolution offers a wide range of office spaces from conference rooms to shared work spaces.

“The variety of spaces we offer can truly accommodate any need,” said Bean. “This is crucial for professionals like real estate agents who are doing different work from one day to the next.”
