Dublin's flexible workspace market, a snapshot: - Operator reported occupancy for 2023 was c.93% (Dublin 2). - Average Length of Term (depending on data source) 18-20 months, increasing YoY. At Ella House it is over 40 months. - Over 70% of transactions in 2023 were from financial services. - Desk rates for the best space are probably as high now as they were pre-covid. - January & February enquiries are very strong. Some positivity to counterbalance the blunt approach to reporting on the state of the Dublin office market. #Dublin #flexspace #flexibleworkspace #officemarket

The key differences between commercial space and serviced office space lie in the level of service, flexibility, and cost structure: ### Commercial Space: 1. **Lease Terms**: Typically involves long-term leases, often spanning several years. 2. **Customization**: The tenant is responsible for fitting out and customizing the space to suit their needs, which can involve significant upfront costs. 3. **Costs**: Rent is usually lower per square foot, but tenants bear additional expenses such as utilities, maintenance, cleaning, and furnishing. 4. **Independence**: Tenants have complete control over the space and can operate independently without shared facilities. 5. **Responsibility**: Tenants handle their own administrative tasks, such as reception, mail handling, and IT services. ### Serviced Office Space: 1. **Lease Terms**: Offers short-term, flexible leases that can be month-to-month or for a few years. 2. **Ready-to-Use**: Comes fully furnished and equipped, allowing tenants to move in and start working immediately without the need for significant setup. 3. **Costs**: Rent is bit higher per square foot, but it includes utilities, maintenance, cleaning, internet, and sometimes even administrative support. 4. **Shared Facilities**: Tenants have access to shared amenities such as meeting rooms, kitchens, lounges, and sometimes fitness centers. 5. **Convenience**: Often includes services like reception, mail handling, IT support, and other administrative tasks, which are managed by the service provider. #dubai #officespaceindubai #bisdesk.com
