We are able to provide the TenantBase platform and service at no cost to our users because we are paid by office building owners/landlords for helping facilitate your lease. However, we do not represent any owners/landlords and only work on behalf of our tenant users.

Where does TenantBase get listing information?

We have a community approach to information gathering and sharing. We compile information directly from the landlords and listing agents that have office space available, and have our own local team constantly looking for the best office space for small businesses and startups. This helps us provide more accurate information and gets you access to space fast when you’re ready to tour.

When should I start looking for a new office space?

Good question! Our blog post, How to Find the Perfect Office Space, is a great guide to help you start your search. In general, you want to start evaluating the market at least 3 - 6 months before your next move.
