Renting Commercial Property with Confidence: A Guide from Asquith Homes
At Asquith Homes, we pride ourselves on offering high-quality residential and commercial properties backed by long-term relationships and exceptional service. Many of our residential tenants have stayed in the same property for over a decade, and our clients return to us time and time again, proof of our commitment to quality, trust and consistency.
In addition to our residential offerings, we provide a range of commercial properties, including shops and warehouses for rent. Whether you're starting a new venture, expanding your business or simply relocating, choosing the right commercial space is a critical decision that can influence your long-term success. Here’s what you should know before renting commercial property:
Renting a Shop: Key Considerations
1. Location, Location, Location
The success of any retail business heavily depends on its location. Look for high footfall areas that align with your target market, and make sure the shop is accessible via public transport and main road networks for both customers and staff.
2. Size and Layout
Evaluate how much space your business truly needs. Consider the number of employees, storage requirements, display space and future growth. A layout that supports customer flow and efficient operations is just as important as square footage.
3. Business Growth Potential
If you anticipate expansion, think ahead. Will the shop allow for this, or would you need to relocate again soon? Flexibility can save you time and money in the long run.
4. Cost and Local Market Research
Rent can vary widely depending on location. City centres offer visibility but come with higher costs, while quieter, up-and-coming areas may offer better value. Research the going rates in your chosen area and include operational costs in your budget planning.
