Here are the top solutions to finding and using temporary office space:

- Prioritize your need for office amenities, including staffing, to narrow your choices.
- Go to the experts for help in choosing the best temporary office space for you.
Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done
Define necessities immediately
Figuring out what you need is the first step. Start with the basics – office size, number of employees working from that office (if any), geographical location, you rental budget and occupancy dates.I recommend: Try out the planning checklist on OfficeFinder, an information/referral network with office location experts in 400-plus markets.
Narrow your choices
Refine your new office must-haves by adding those features you consider indispensable – make a list of "needs" vs. "wants" so you have these options clearly defined ahead of time.I recommend: HQ is the largest provider of fully-equipped office space and executive suites for rent in the U.S. Worldwide, we're talking 750 locations, 350 cities and 60 countries.
Contemplate the costs
Number one on your priority list should be finding the right space for the right price. What will your lease agreement and rent cover? Just the space itself, or office equipment, furniture and high-speed Internet? (If you have to buy/rent equipment, that's going to cut into your bottom line.)I recommend: Plug your expenses into the Executive Suite vs. Conventional Office Cost Comparison Calculator to figure out your costs.
Share and share alike
Thinking about a shared office? Then check out "turnkey" office solutions – not just office space – they provide you with entire fitted, furnished, and staffed office, in most cases. (Check to verify which amenities are included in the lease price, and which are offered for additional fees.)I recommend: Check out OfficerFinder's Executive Suites, to find shared offices with services provided by a management firm. Or check out the free property search at Executive Suites.
Ready, set, go!
Okay, put the experts to work for you. Any of the sources we've given you here can help you find the perfect office.I recommend: Go straight to OfficeFinder Wizard for a step-by-step guide to find the right space. Go to Offices2Share for a free search of short-term, ready-to-use office space.
Tips & Tactics
Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide
- Get it in writing: No handshake deals here! Get everything – rental terms and prices, signage, etc. – you name it.
- Professional and useful: Remember that you have the limited resources of a small business owner, so make sure your temp office space looks professional, and is put to the right use.
- Think sensibly: Don't fall victim to choosing a space based only on its appearance, address, or ocean-side sunrises, if it's the size of a closet. Think smart.
- Accessible: Is the new office easily to go to from a highway/main street? You don't want your clients getting lost.
