New Market Data Shows Increased Interest in London Serviced Offices Amongst Start Ups and Small Businesses
Serviced office enquiries on the rise as small businesses and start-ups turn to cost-conscious and flexible ways of managing office space
London, United Kingdom, November 16, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Recent activity from Executive Offices Group (http://www.executiveoffices.co.uk/) suggests a steady increase in enquiries for London serviced offices (http://www.executiveoffices.co.uk/serviced-offices/) compared to the same period last year. The results also highlight the increased number of start-up businesses in the market using London serviced offices in Q3 of 2009, pointing towards growth in this sector as entrepreneurs look to capitalise on opportunities presented by the recent downturn.
This trend is underscored by evidence from office space brokers, which shows that in the first two quarters of 2009, 77% of all UK new office enquiries were from businesses seeking space for five desks or under (with many of these requests coming from firms seeking two desks).
Reports from other sources also corroborate these findings, with the British Bankers Association announcing that small businesses have received more loans over recent months, with an increase of £391m in June 2009 and a further 50,000 small businesses setting up new banking relationships during this time. Additionally, a recent survey by Business Link in London states that 84% of small businesses in the City are looking to expand and grow over 2009.
At the same time, information from Knight Frank - published in their Central London quarterly office market report - shows a marked increase in commercial office occupier activity, and a stable vacancy rate of 11%. This has had the effect of boosting levels of take-up in the City of London to the highest they have been for two years, with a reduction in available office premises predicted for 2010.
With so many small businesses looking to get ahead of their rivals and demand for commercial real estate higher than it has been for years, a serviced office in London (http://www.executiveoffices.co.uk/serviced-offices/) is the ideal solution. Serviced offices appeal to a diverse customer base including major corporations, freelancers and entrepreneurs by providing highly flexible and cost-effective alternatives to conventional office space.
