Finding the Right Retail Space in the Greater Boise Metropolitain Area

If you’re selling a product, you may need a space from which to hawk your wares. Don’t sign a lease on the first bargain you see – find a location that’s accessible to your customers and suited to the needs of your business.

Make sure that any space you’re considering is big enough for both your current needs and your foreseeable growth. Be realistic and don’t over commit.
Do your homework beforehand. Investigate traffic patterns; tour the building. Find out who the previous tenant was, and why the business left. Learn what kinds of marketing the location does in support of its tenants (if any) and whether co-operative marketing funds are available to you.
Weigh the benefits of guaranteed foot traffic at a mall location against premium rent. Some malls require that all tenants stay open during mall hours, and pay for common area usage as well as the store’s own space and upkeep. Stores may also be asked to pay a percentage of sales to the mall.
Identify your closest competitors. Also check out neighboring businesses with an eye for complementary products or services. Is there an established cluster economy? If you are locating in a mall, check the lease agreement for any guaranteed protection against competition (malls may rent only to a set number of similar stores at any given time).
Evaluate whether the physical location and space is a good fit with your product line. Do you need a large, bright space or a charming, cozy nook?
Investigate any restrictions on signage. Signs are vitally important to retail businesses, yet many landlords decide on what a store can and cannot do. The rules may be even stricter in a mall, which closely monitors its physical appearance.
Negotiate the terms of your lease aggressively. Never accept wording that’s confusing or that leaves you wondering who is liable for what. Ask for the right of first refusal on adjacent space in case you need to expand. Negotiate for free improvements and other incentives before signing your lease.
Hire a real estate attorney who not only specializes in lease negotiations, but knows your area and, preferably, has dealt with your kind of business before. A lease negotiation can cover tens, if not hundreds, of terms, and you want someone in your corner who’s seen it all before.
Know who’s responsible for maintaining the heating, air-conditioning and other systems, as well as keeping up the parking lot and building exterior. This can be critical in older buildings.

If your company is searching for a retail space location that’s handy to your customers and is suited to the needs of your business, then contact The Sundance Company. Established in 1976, The Sundance Company has the experience to help you with your retail space needs in Boise, Meridian, Nampa, and the greater Treasure Valley. We have more than 1.5 million square feet of commercial real estate space available in prime Boise and Meridian locations.

Office Space for Optimum Efficiency

Is your office space designed for optimum efficiency? Most of us spend the majority of our time cooped up in the office, which, more often that not is a small cubicle that doesn’t allow for privacy, space, creativity or inspiration. That’s why it’s important to personalize your workspace (or home away from home). Office space designs require a tremendous amount of thought and consideration. While there are many common approaches to designing office space, finding the right design that works for you and your employees could be the key to a successful business.

For instance, space plays a major role in efficiency. Think about the way a chef works in the kitchen. They have to be precise, quick and careful. In order to do this effectively, they have to have an organized mise en place, or space. A mise en place literally means “put in place” and refers to a chef’s station where they keep all of the items they need to prepare food. This triangular station allows them to stand in one spot, gather ingredients, pivot to one side and work at the stovetop.

The same concept can be applied to an office workstation. Here are some tips for office space design that can help you increase efficiency and quickness:

Open Office Space Designs
Many offices have converted to an open office space design to stimulate better communication among employees. There are, however, limits to what you can do to work spaces in an open office. The layout of office furniture becomes limited by the lack of office walls or cubicle partitions. When possible, choose to set up workstations in corner spaces so that each station has two walls. Then, use an L-shaped desk with a filing drawer to create a triangular space in which to work.

Private Office Space Designs
Some organizations find that by giving each employee a private office with a window, they increase morale and promote a sense of importance. In fact, the quality of this type of office design can have an impact on self-image, motivation and enthusiasm, creating an environment that raises productivity and efficiency. The downside to private offices is that they create a mentality that segregates employees as individuals. This lack of teamwork mindset can be solved with great design. By creating an “intersection” in the middle of the office where employees can meet, you can give your office a centralized feel that brings everyone together. This “intersection” can house things like fax and copy machines, message boards or work counters.

Designs with Floor to Ceiling Windows
Office designs with floor to ceiling windows provide a great amount of natural light and a tremendous view, but they can also pose some challenges for workspace layout. In this layout, desks are usually positioned on one wall, with a filing cabinet on the opposite wall. When possible, you should use utilize the wall space on the same wall as your door, or use an L-shaped desk to create a smaller workspace triangle.

Quite possibly the most crucial aspect of office space design is working with the right designer. Hire a good designer with whom you can freely share your opinions. Being able to point out the things you like and dislike will help the process more along more effectively. Plus, it allows both parties to be upfront with each other at all times, creating an environment where coordination and planning efforts are at their peak.

When is it time to relocate

The prospect of moving office locations can be filled with negative initial resistance, considering the disruption and important decision involved. However, it can typically be the right decision to make, especially in regards to a rougher-than-normal financial status that currently effects quite literally everyone involved in commerce at the present. So when is a good time to consider relocating a business? What are the options for relocation?

There are a variety of reasons for businesses to pick up and try a new location. A common reason is for expansion and outgrowth. Simply put, success may make an older office location too cramped and confining if a corporation plans to realize its fullest profit potential. Relocation during an expansion positively affects productivity, efficiency, staff morale, and most importantly financial status for a growing company. Somewhat related to expansion, the need for a better-suited location can also be an oft-cited reason for relocation. If a business needs a creative business district to thrive and attract new potential clients, its often worth the price to pick up and relocate–especially when continued revenue streams will prevent a company from going under during a threatening economic period.

Easy options exist for companies to relocate, thanks to serviced and managed office solution providers. Without the need to agree to lengthy leasing terms and high upfront fees, any organization that needs to relocate either temporarily or for a longer period can quickly ease into a new location with fully-furnished office equipment, services, and a flexible rental agreement should the new location prove untenable. Even expanding businesses will find serviced offices quite useful when exploiting the flexibility in leasing terms to add on to the company’s office space upon short notice, and such short-term office solutions really become a cureall for aiding any thriving business in navigating past the rough waters post-credit crunch.

If your company is ready to relocate, then contact The Sundance Company today. With more than 1.5 million square feet of office and industrial space available in prime Boise and Meridian locations, The Sundance Company has the experience to help you with your commercial real estate needs in Boise, Meridian, Nampa, and the greater Treasure Valley.

Finding The Right Commercial Real Estate Space For Your Business

There are several variables to consider and The Sundance Company offers a general summary of the leasing process. Please remember this is a general summary of the leasing process and the steps involved for your company can vary depending on a number of factors.

1. Identify Needs: Location, location, location. You have probably heard that phrase numerous times in the business world and the word location is might be the most-used word in real estate. Why? Location affects your visibility, the quality of your space and ultimately the long-term value of your business. Before you finalize your location in the greater Boise metropolitan area you need to answer a few questions: Where are our customers? Our market region? Our employees? Where is the competition located?

Cost: Your monthly rent will be determined by a few variables including location (Boise, Meridian, or Nampa), lease rate per square foot, free rent or other concessions provided by the owner, utilities and other costs if the lease is Triple Net, additional tenant improvements that are amortized into the rent, and annual rental increases as provided for in your lease.

Type of Space: The type of space you need is going to be determined by the type of product or service you provide. Is it industrial? Retail? Office? The Sundance Company has commercial real estate leasing options including industrial, retail, and office throughout the Treasure Valley so we can certainly find the right type of space for your company.
