Flex Workspace Pro

Owning commercial property is a solid investment… until it sits empty. Maybe you’ve been staring at an unused floor or a whole building that’s been sitting vacant. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone.

But here’s the good news: you can turn that empty space into something vibrant and valuable. Coworking and shared office spaces are more popular than ever, offering a smart, profitable way to breathe life back into your property. With over 20 years in the coworking space, Flex Workspace Solutions (FWS) knows what it takes to make these transformations successful. Our founder, Mark Burge, has seen it all—he knows exactly what sells and what doesn’t in flex spaces. Let’s take a look at how coworking could work for your property.

Why Consider Coworking? The Office World Has Changed.

You might be wondering, “Why should I turn my empty space into a coworking space?” Here’s the scoop: the way people work has changed. Many businesses, freelancers, and even larger companies are moving away from long-term leases and looking for flexible, shared spaces instead.

Transforming an empty space into a coworking environment can:

  • Generate reliable income by attracting a range of tenants.
  • Increase your property’s value and make it more appealing.
  • Fit spaces of all sizes, from a single floor to an entire building.

Plus, creating a coworking space within your building can add tremendous value as a building amenity. Other tenants in the building can use the coworking facilities like meeting rooms, day offices, event spaces, community kitchens, and networking opportunities—all without leaving the building. This makes your property even more appealing to potential tenants and turns it into a dynamic, community-centered hub.

Our designs often include community kitchens and networking areas to make it a true hub for work and connection.

Our team keeps amenities in top shape, ensures meeting rooms are ready, and builds a welcoming community, so you don’t have to worry about a thing.
  3. Flexible Lease Options
    Our lease options are designed to give you steady income and high occupancy. We set up flexible agreements to keep your space filled with tenants, making sure your property brings in reliable income instead of sitting empty.
