When planning for an office move, it is imperative to have a clear understanding of the associated costs so you can establish a budget. The total cost will depend on several factors, such as the size of the new office space and whether it’s owned or rented by the business. Here are some crucial items that should be included in your moving budget:
Commercial mortgage
In case you’re purchasing an office space using a mortgage, there will be various charges like arrangement fees, valuation fees or legal fees.
Leaving rented office space
If your current lease agreement has not yet expired, then there will likely be termination fees involved. Landlords may charge for dilapidation, which refers to restoring offices back to their original pre-let state.
Building survey
Regardless of whether you intend to purchase or lease the property, having a building survey carried out can help assess its condition and identify potential future maintenance issues.
Fit out costs
If your new building is unfurnished and your existing furniture and equipment are insufficient for the new building space, then allocating funds towards fit out costs becomes necessary.
Cleaning services
It’s highly advisable to engage professional cleaning services before moving into any new premises, ensuring they’re thoroughly clean before use.
