On a longer project, our work starts where comparison ends: an expert who knows the local operators builds your shortlist within 48 hours, arranges the viewings and negotiates on your behalf, at no fee.

We detail the inventory of 15 of them: 203 closed offices, that is 2,239 listed desks.

We price each team size on the offices that actually hold it, never on the smallest office in the building.
Supply stays deep whatever the team size: 14 spaces can still hold 10 people, against 15 for 2.
