Having your own living space is one thing, but your business' space should be taken into more than just careful consideration. The question of leasing your office space or just buying it out is much more complicated and cannot simply be answered by determining how much money you have currently to spend.
Buying office space, for example, can allow any business to determine their costs and thus offers greater control over its expenses. On the other hand, leasing office space gives business owners the opportunity to take up a posh address in central business districts, as the costs per month would certainly be lower, giving said business room to wiggle financially.
Another advantage of buying office space is, quite obviously, being able to earn from it in the future, as said space can be rented out. It's also not unheard of that two companies share one office at the same time, as long as they are direct competitors of each other. It might even be a good way to establish linkages for another entity that might be complementary to your business. The same effect, however, can be achieved if one were to rent out space in central business districts, where other noteworthy organizations are easy distances from each other. It's simply a matter of choosing where rent out--the law of "location, location, location," still is in effect.
In terms of longevity, both options present the businessman with pros and cons. Buying office space definitely ensures the property as an asset that appreciates over time, and hence a profit can easily be made. Although that very purchase is most definitely a commitment--one has to live (or in this case: work) in that property for some time, and the ever-changing demands of business will certainly take its toll eventually. On the other end of the stick, renting out space presents the businessman with the opportunity to change locations without having as much non-liquid assets.
Without question, there is no one correct answer when it comes to this subject. All that is certain, however, is that the businessman needs only to ask himself a few questions to determine what would suit his business better. What am I financially capable of? Which location of either option would bring in more clients? Should I take out a loan? Will I need more space in the future? How far off into the future. Most importantly, what the businessman should really ask himself is this: what does my gut feeling say?
