Atm, the top one and the 4th one with the little green chair in the corner are the top runners. Price & availability also being taken into consideration. These run from $150 - $300 per month for a one day rental.

Wow can't you get it cheaper to buy on Wayfair?

Tignanello · My dog name is, Sasha!

I don't think I can get days in an office on Wayfair ...

I might have worded it badly. Rent on each of those offices runs $150-$300 per 4 days/month (like, 4 x Thursday = $150-$300).

Also, not entirely sure Wayfair is a thing here.

Ahh, I get it now. Third one is best. But don't you want to work more than 4 days a month?

Tignanello · My dog name is, Sasha!

Yes, yes I do. And would have to if I want to pay rent! BUT - going out on my own 100% right away would be really hard. My reputation in the community isn't quite what it would need to be. I'm still a bit of an unknown entity. So, starting slow with a day a week outside of my associate-ship is a good way to start. Then add other days as I can. So, 3 days at associate-ship + 1 day on my own to start.

You seem to have it all thought out. Good for you.

Tignanello · My dog name is, Sasha!

That 3rd one is $250 per day. So, I think $1000 per month, but some of them are hard to read. It might just be $250/m. This posting is harder to read than some of them for pricing.

Tignanello · My dog name is, Sasha!

I like that bottom one. It's $150/m (about $35/d) for Fridays. Thursdays aren't available in that one, which would be my preference.

I know what to do_sometimes · Frozen Sucks!

Bottom one is great too.

Tignanello · My dog name is, Sasha!

The decor aesthetic is more my style. And I like that therapists chair. It's rare that I like a therapists chair. Or chairs in general.

The title kind of threw me. I was thinking of a completely different thing......

Forever Sunshine · Guru

I like the first and last ones best. Good luck!

I think the one with the green chair
in the corner, and the "main" chair
at an angle is the best arrangement.
It doesn't look "confrontational"

I like the first one because of the windows.

I just went to check the pricing on that one, and it's gone :( BUT ... this just came up.

Tignanello · My dog name is, Sasha!

That one is $225/m for Thursdays. Not bad.

Crunch the numbers.

Which one is the most affordable with all things considered.

Transportation, rent, accessibility for you and your clients, lunch. The one that has the greatest profit to cost is the one you want.

Tignanello · My dog name is, Sasha!

There is only one on here that is out of budget, and only because I think that the renter is overshooting and what they're offering is not worth what they are charging. The rest are all affordable. The only thing that will change in my practice is the rent cost, and to balance that I will not have to give up 33% of my fees, which will exceed the rent.

Numbers have have been crunched for years! biggrin

There is also a location/aesthetic. I am willing to pay a little more for a great location (2 of those are on the water, so I'd pay more but it's also kinda ugly. It's a trade off)

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

Then pick one.

Tignanello · My dog name is, Sasha!

There are just so many good choices! And it's fun to explore options and think creatively about what my next step could be. Picking one too soon takes so much choice out of it.

My office fantasies involved couches. Just saying.

I am definitely taking the couch into consideration!

oh. you meant that. evileye

Tignanello · My dog name is, Sasha!

Damn! That one with the amazing view of the mountains and ocean got snapped up in less than 18hrs. Emailed them last night and by the time she got back to me this morning she already had someone waiting to sign papers.

Tignanello · My dog name is, Sasha!

Just found one that requires the clinician to be 'LGBTQ2SAA' friendly. I'm not sure you can do that.

One question. If you are only there
on Thursdays, say, who is responsible
for taking care of the plants?

The person whose office it actually is. A daily rental is really a sublet. But only for 4 days a month. (granted, in my office there wouldn't be plants ... they'd all die)

Lawyerlady · On the bright side...... Christmas is coming! (Mod)

I like that last one you posted.

I like that one too. I emailed the person, and it is still available. I'm going to go look at it. She sent another pic with a better angle and including some of the view.

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

It looks hot. I'd go when the sun is in the same angle.

Something tells me you'd have to close the blinds, or move the furniture.

Lawyerlady · On the bright side...... Christmas is coming! (Mod)

She's in Canada. How hot can it be? biggrin biggrin biggrin biggrin biggrin

Pfffft. We can get plenty hot! But, we're not so backwards we don't have air conditioning ....

Also, I'll be in the office throughout the day, so blinds will have to come up and come down on different sides throughout the day. *shrug*

Hope you can get the one you like.

FNW · Guru

Isn't there usually a film on office windows to keep out the heat/cold? That's how it is with the offices I have had.

I like the last one. But really, find one in a location that attracts attention, and convenience for your patients. (parking, access, safe neighborhood, etc.)

Tignanello · My dog name is, Sasha!

That's why I like this one. Technically it's all about the view, as 99% of the people here are only here because the beauty and access of the mountains and water. The view of both is attractive.

Some of our windows are filmed, but the older heritage buildings are not. This building is just slightly out of the main part of downtown, off the central hub, so the location is great. Definitely a safe neighbourhood (I looked at one once where my clients would likely have to step over needles to get there. Walked away quick) but parking will be something to check out. There is not a lot of street parking in areas just slightly to the west of the location, but this building should still be in the business district, so should be okay.

Still would be blinding to sit with the sun in your eyes.

Tignanello · My dog name is, Sasha!

This is what shades are for. The sun moves. Shades move with it.

Tignanello · My dog name is, Sasha!

Tiny. Could reach side to side if I lay down. Oh well. NVM. Looking at this one now. The biggest problem with it is that he name is etched on the door. I hate that.

So buy a name plate with your name and a velcro backing so on Thursdays Your name can cover his.

Tignanello · My dog name is, Sasha!

You don't think it would look funny?

It may but you have to have your name on it when you are there.

Done. It's perfect.
