Use this Checklist to Plan Your Office Space
I mentioned Google Sketchup a while back. If you are not comfortable using their software, maybe you will find these tools from OfficeFinder.com more helpful. Here is what they have on their site:
- A planning checklist to use when you are looking for office space
- An office space calculator. This one wasn’t quite as useful as I thought it would be. It’s more for a typical office, not a chiropractic office. Still, it’s free so you might want to give it a try.
- A lease-vs-buy discussion
- A good article on measuring office floor area, including the difference between usable space, rentable space, and common areas. Note their chart on conversion factors.
