Commercial Construction Options for the Growing Business<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Whether you are just starting out or simply outgrowing your existing space, there will come a time when you must ask yourself if you want to build new, remodel, or expand. Each and every business and business owner are different, so the pros and cons to each option will give you some insight on what your specific objectives are for your company\u2019s future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New Builds<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You can choose to build a new construction property, which would entail a full process of real estate procurement, space planning and permitting, designing, and building. It may sound like a lot, but this is a common route taken by growing businesses. Although there are plenty of pros to new construction, there are also some cons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PROS:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2611 A Fresh Start
\u2611 Freedom to Customize
\u2611 Opportunity to Rebrand<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CONS:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2611 More Expensive
\u2611 Longer Timeline
\u2611 Limited Land Availability<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remodels<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps your location is a bit outdated, or you need to spruce up and modernize a newly-procured space? Choosing to remodel your existing space, or another existing space, such as a distressed commercial asset<\/a>, can reap several benefits and conveniences, but just as all other options in life, they also come with a few mentionable downfalls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PROS:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2611 Updated Look and Feel
\u2611 Improved Technologies
\u2611 Efficient Timelines<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CONS:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2611 No Additional Space Gained
\u2611 Loud and Disruptive Construction  
\u2611 Possible Delays and Setbacks<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Expansions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Are you perfectly happy with your company\u2019s location, or maybe unable to move locations, but your staff and operations are basically running out of room? If so, an expansion, or a commercial fit-out, might be the right option for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PROS:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2611 Cheaper Than New Builds
\u2611 Less Construction and Disruption
\u2611 Modernize Technology For Less<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CONS:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2611 A Remodel to Update Old Space
\u2611 Costlier Than Remodeling
\u2611 Moderate Disruptive Construction<\/p>\n\n\n\n
