Current events are causing many businesses to cut costs and, unfortunately, could mean closing shop completely.<\/p>\n<p>As tenants vacate office and retail spaces, supply is likely to go up with demand going down. Therefore, owners need to find ways of being more attractive to businesses and retail shops still looking for space. Upfit construction in between tenants will go a long way to entice new lessees.<\/p>\n<p>An upfit is simply a modification to an existing space that typically makes the space more flexible and appealing to tenants looking for office or retail space.<\/p>\n<h6>Two Current Trends that Call for Upfit Construction<\/h6>\n<p>For owners of buildings used primarily as office space, there is a new design pushing against the open office concept that has become popular over the past several years. The new design is called Activity-Based Working (ABW).<\/p>\n<p>According to an article from Sierraview\u2014a company that runs an enterprise platform for managing and optimizing corporate real estate\u2014the ABW trend is gaining momentum because it provides space for all types of work. With an ABW upfit, there are open spaces for collaboration among coworkers and there are also enclosed spaces for phone calls or when confidential conversations are necessary.<\/p>\n<p>Another interesting trend that landlords needs to be aware of is the move from online to physical retail space. Companies like the popular eyewear maker <a href=\"https:\/\/www.warbyparker.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Warby Parker<\/a> or men\u2019s clothier <a href=\"https:\/\/bonobos.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bonobos<\/a> started entirely online and are now bringing their business to storefronts. Accommodating these modern retailers will require unique upfits to current spaces.<\/p>\n<h6>Upfit Construction Draws the Attention of Tenants Seeking Space<\/h6>\n<p>Upfit construction has several other benefits for property owners as well. An upfit always provides an opportunity for upgrading technology and other equipment, such as the HVAC system, to make the space more attractive for prospective tenants. Upfits also demonstrate a commitment to partnering with tenants for a more long-term relationship.<\/p>\n<p>When considering an upfit, begin by contacting a full-service construction company like Price Construction who will be a trusted partner from start to finish.
