How to Start a Business While Moving to a Bigger, More Suitable Home By Suzie Wilson

Posted in Blog on January 27, 2021 by Chrishena Stanley

Launching a new business is exciting and motivating, but it can be stressful if you’re also looking for a new place to live that will support your new venture. Finding a larger house that can allow your business to grow and thrive is vital, but it’s important to find ways to keep costs down. Consider these tips to help you stay on track.

Looking for a larger Atlanta-area home to accommodate your business? Partner with the skilled professionals at STK Property Group! Call (404) 536-7400 or send a message.

Starting a business while moving

Once you realize you’ll need more space to properly launch your home business, it can be challenging to juggle both the launch of your business and your house hunt. While you don’t need to pause your business progress completely, consider ways to minimize stress throughout the process.

If you’re waiting to fully launch until you’re in your new home, think about what you can do in the meantime to help get your business ready. There are plenty of administrative tasks that are important to complete when starting a business: you’ll need to establish a business structure (LLC, for example), get licensed in your city/county/state, and take care of tax requirements.

In the interim and before you’re in the new house, you can also launch your online presence by setting up a website, launching on social media, and developing marketing campaigns. If you’re short on time, you can always hire freelancers to help with some of these tasks. Freelance web designers are often well worth the money to help you create a beautiful website.

You’re also going to want to research your internet service options so that you’ll be operating your business with a dependable and high-powered internet connection. 5G home internet has recently arrived in some of America’s largest cities. It comes with improved download speeds and almost no lag time.

Finding the right house

For most entrepreneurs, keeping to a strict budget is important in the early days of your business. If you are concerned about the cost of buying a new home, you may want to look at “as-is” home listings. Buying an “as-is” home is usually quite a bit cheaper, but it’s vital to consider the drawbacks.

“As-is” means the seller will not be making any repairs or offering any credits for problems or defects of the home or property. While this can be a great way to save money, it’s also riskier to buy a home under these terms, meaning you should consult a lawyer and have the property thoroughly inspected before making a decision. It’s also a great idea to have a licensed contractor examine all the structural components of the house, and include a provision in the contract that allows for inspections pending any significant findings.

As you and your look for the right house, be sure you have a list of non-negotiables that you need for your business. Ensure it has the right number of bedrooms and that it will support your personal needs as well as your business requirements.

When you’re ready to launch your business and move to a new house, keep the above tips in mind to make the process smooth and as stress-free as possible. Take care of online tasks while you’re waiting to set up your new office space, and find a home that you can afford. Overall, remember to find a home that suits both your personal and business needs and be patient as you find the perfect home.
