Disclosure: I work for SquareFoot

Unfortunately the real estate market (outside of a few key players) has struggled to change their offerings away from rigid fixed terms to accommodate the need for flexibility.

Their long term business models and predictions were based on the revenue streams from those rigid terms, but the segment of the market which requires flexibility above all else is growing fast.

However, that demand only had access to office space which specialised in the flexible office space market, meaning your choices are limited to providers which shove you in a generic box room, until you need to move to another bigger generic box room.

To square that circle, we launched FLEX by SquareFoot, where we work with clients to pick the terms of their lease with all of the concerns you listed, but without having to restrict their choices to providers which specialise in flexible solutions.

It's our way of exposing a lot more commercial real estate inventory that in the past required rigid commitments to the growing segment of the market which needs the flexibility.
