Key factors influencing office rental prices
Several factors determine if an office lands in the ‘high-end’ or ‘low-end’ category:
- Amenities: Does it offer competitive perks like on-site gyms or basics like bike storage?
- Location: Is it close to transport, food, and entertainment or more remote?
- Renovations: Is the building freshly updated, or showing signs of age?
- Management Quality: Are reception and support teams reliable and community-focused?
Together, these factors add up to define the overall office ‘vibe’ — and they’re key to where the rental price lands.
