What is the primary factor to look into before setting up a business?

The answer is location.

Your business address is more than just an address. It is the foundation that will lead your business to growth. It is the place of customer interaction and employee satisfaction. Choosing the right property can make a difference in your business' success. It marks the subtle difference between a thriving enterprise and a struggling one.

The process of stumbling on the perfect location is a daunting task. To help you find the perfect fit, here are the key considerations and pro tips to guide your search for the ideal business property.

5 Factors To Select Your Business Property

  1. Assess Your Business: Are you a retail store or a collaborative workspace? What is the footfall rate of your business? Understanding the business model will guide your search for features and amenities. Consider the square foot needed for the business operations and future growth plans. Factor in workspace for employees, inventory storage, customer areas, and break rooms. Parking space is another point to consider. Customer-facing businesses need to consider factors like convenient parking need to be assessed as well.
  2. Accessible Location: Location is a crucial factor in determining your business's success. Consider the ease of location for your customers, employees, deliveries, and competitions. If you're a corporate office, a business park also works as a good option. Another factor to keep in mind when it comes to the location of your business is its distance from the key transportation system. Is the location near important roads, railways, or other public transport hubs? Also, think beyond your immediate needs. Keep expansion an ulterior factor for your business.
  3. Budget Considerations: Carefully consider the financial implications of renting or buying a space. Be realistic about your budget. You can start noting down whether you have to buy the property or lease it out. While creating a comparison, include operating costs like utilities, maintenance, insurance, and property taxes, and weigh out the options accordingly. If you plan to rent out the property, don't forget to include the cost of rent in the fixed costs. In case you decide on leasing, read the terms and conditions thoroughly.
  4. Features of The Property: As a business space, ensure that the space can accommodate your current and future requirements. A business has a present and a future. Assess the overall condition of the commercial property. Do a check and a recheck of the property for construction confirmations. Also, being a business place ensures that the place has essential features like conference rooms, security systems, and restrooms. Ensure the property meets all the regulations and codes for running business operations in that specific area.
  5. Plan for the Future: Business is a going concern. It has to thrive today, to strive for tomorrow. Keep three factors in mind while thinking about your business's future, scalability, flexibility, and long-term vision. Consider how your business might grow in the future and what would be the advancements, then select the business premises accordingly. Think whether the space is expansion-friendly, is the layout adaptable to accommodate future changes, and also if the location is in alignment with your business's long-term ideas.
