Treasure Valley Office Space Checklist

So, you’re just starting a business in the Treasure Valley, and you’re finding yourself overwhelmed with the task of locating an office that will accommodate your needs without breaking your budget. Choosing office space can be complicated, because you’re counting on the amount of business you do to offset the costs of leasing the space and staffing it with employees. No matter which type of space you choose for your business, there are some considerations that you should always keep in mind on your quest to lease office space.

When you set out to find office space such as the Blackeagle Center in Boise or the Silverstone Corporate Plaza in Meridian, Idaho, it is important that you make a list of the most important aspects of the space before you talk to a leasing agent or even make a phone call in response to one classified advertisement. Essential to this list is that you keep in the back of your mind exactly what you need, not what you want to function. These needs include the actual amount of space you need to function, not feel like a corporate executive; the communications access that you need to stay in touch with your clients on a regular basis, like internet and commercial telephone services, and last, but not least, the realistic amount of money you have to spend on an office.

When you are looking to lease an office, the amount of actual square footage you need depends greatly on the type of business you are hoping to run. If you’re going to be running a clothing store or design studio, you will need more space than someone who is developing and running a web site or a consultancy.

If you have considered all of the office space that is available for lease around your geographical location and have determined that nothing is very well suited to your needs or to your budget, you might want to consider a executive suite office instead. These are typically single suites that are available within a professional office building. The benefits of executive office space include professional receptionist services, access to conference rooms, internet and phone services, and, in most cases, spaces that are already furnished with chairs, desks, and filing cabinets.

Please check out The Sundance Company website to view property photos, search for office space or learn more about Sundance’s start-to-finish capabilities. If you prefer to talk to someone in person about your commercial real estate needs, then just give us a call at our Boise office, (208) 322-7300.

How To Find The Right Office Space in The Treasure Valley

With a little extra time and effort, you can be assured of finding a great office location from The Sundance Company in the Treasure Valley that will serve your business well for years to come. With numerous office space locations in Boise or Meridian, Idaho, consider these tips to help you find the perfect spot.

Consider What You Need: You would think this would go without saying, but it is amazing how many business owners leap into an office contract after being mesmerized by the fancy foyer or the many amenities. Write down exactly what you need and take that list with you when you tour available spaces. If you have 10 employees, don’t rent space for 100. Unless you have concrete plans to expand to a larger or different operation in the future, rent only for your current needs. And don’t let yourself be talked into something you really don’t need. Nothing good can come of trying to fit a square peg in a round hole when it comes to office space.

Make a Budget: Don’t over-extend yourself with a huge rental payment when you are considering the office space that is right for your business. Office space for rent can make or break your budget. Find an adequate space that is affordable and that fits well within your budget. You don’t want to over-extend yourself, and you can always upgrade later. And don’t forget to read the fine print. What costs and utilities are you expected to cover? Are there any hidden fees in the contract?

Plan for the Future: While you don’t want to agree to an office space rental agreement based upon hazy future plans, you do want to be prepared for changes you might need to make later on down the road as your business grows and expenses. Does your rental agreement allow you to remodel the office space or expand into empty, adjacent space? What if you need to terminate the agreement or want to upgrade to a larger office? Can that be done under your agreement or would hefty fees be involved to re-negotiate the lease? Work out those details now as you plan for the future of your business, and save headaches later for a great experience as you search for office space for rent.

Use these tips to find the right property for your business in the Treasure Valley. Then rest secure in the knowledge that you have made a smart business decision that will serve you well for years to come.

“We anticipate a successful partnership with Silverstone, which will bring exposure to our artists, grow art appreciation in the community, and provide companies within Silverstone Plaza an exciting place to do business,” Melissa Brodt, Galerie Belle Ame CEO, said in a release.
“This alliance represents a new business model that is designed to benefit the tenants and visitors to Silverstone Plaza while providing a unique platform for artists to showcase their talent,” said Chris Anderson of Silverstone developer The Sundance Company. “A dynamic art culture and a progressive business community go hand-in-hand.

Home Federal Bank recently held grand opening activities at its 4,000-square-foot branch office in Meridian. The branch and drive-up banking facilities are at 3405 E. Overland Road, in the new Silverstone Plaza building.
“We did extensive market research to determine the best location for this new branch,” Len Williams, president and CEO of Nampa-based Home Federal, said in a release. “This area scored the highest in several components including convenience for customers. We are happy to have found a great location in the true center of the Treasure Valley.” Melissa Fulcher is branch manager and Angie Wecker is customer service manager. Home Federal said it aims to complete, in late January, a 12,000-square-foot space it purchased on Silverstone Plaza’s second floor.

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.

If your company is looking for office space that can provide your business with optimum efficiency, 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.

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.
