Rent office space in MK or work from home?

Posted By: / November 21, 2017

One of the first questions a lot of start up businesses ask is whether renting an office or working from home is the best solution? There are always pros and cons so you need to break it down. Start by asking which is more  convenient not just for you, but also your business. Your work space is a huge factor towards the success or failure of your business. 

Working from home can be efficient and appear cost effective as you don't have to travel to a completely different location, nor do you have additional rent and bills to pay. You work at your own pace within your own comfortability.

However you could also argue that by not travelling to work you are never really in 'work mode', you have no rent to pay however you also cannot claim back all the tax benifits (and did you know you could be liable to capital gains on your home if you rent an office to yourself?). No additional bills to pay? Again another myth as you are now at home longer you are using more electric, more gas; and probably more than you think as you will be tempted to just put that wash on or run the dishwaser; not only is this costing more money, but also robbing your valuable work time.

The rapid evolution of technology and communication maans you can now have a virtual team online that manages different areas of your business so you don't need to physically meet. Coupled with digital capabilities of storing and protecting data online, your team can access information with ease. But is this virtual correspondence ever better than a real face to face? That said board meetings are always a little awkward over the dining room table...

Say you look after your famiy throughout the day whilst working then as a matter of convenience, working from home may prove to be most suitable. But what if you need to concentrate, parents know you're not even safe in the bathroom! A physical place of work away from your home is a god send in the pursuit of 'alone time'.
