The maintenance of office space is a very complicated logistical matter and requires a lot of attention and diligence on the part of the management. This is often difficult for many business organisations. No company can afford to take its attention away from its primary function and focus on the maintenance of its office. This has led to an increased use of managed offices by many leading corporate and even governmental bodies.

Many corporates have found that renting a leasehold office space or serviced offices is much easier than buying a facility for themselves. This helps to offset the overhead maintenance costs and associated investments. Geographical expansion is not without its risks, especially when it seeks physical presence.

Many a times a corporate company opens up an entirely new branch in a foreign country only to have to close it down in a few months. In such cases, the cost of the land, office space and all its equipments have to be written off. A serviced office on the other hand, gives the opportunity to enter the market physically without having to spend a lot on the infrastructure. Serviced offices are fully equipped office buildings that are managed by an office provider.

The office provider then rents out the office spaces in the building to various businesses. These are professionally managed office spaces that have a business oriented structure.

Some of the benefits of managed offices are that they offer an amount of flexibility to relocate on shorter notice. It is also devoid of any property management liability. The serviced office is cost effective. Many managed offices come with fully fitted out office spaces that are equipped with all basic office equipment like phone systems, internet, and other services.

Corporates also save on estate agents and solicitors' fees this way. These are also available in flexible agreements with short term contracts that are very beneficial in case the business has to relocate to a different place. Most of these offices are located in central business districts of major cities making them a much valued location with easy access. It is also beneficial to the image of the company to work out of these locations.

There are also leasehold offices that are more suited to medium and large term businesses. These leases are available for a longer period of 5 to 20 years and are usually opted for by companies with their own office furniture and equipment. There are many real estate firms that deal especially in serviced offices over the internet.

These offices can be chosen according to the budget and the services and facilities they have. One can even choose to make a few additions according to the demands of the business. An office in the right place can affect the business considerably, which is why most corporates choose a location at the centre of the city.
