3 Ways to Achieve the Ideal Home Office Space
Posted By Derek DiStefano @ Apr 28th 2021 5:29pm In: 3 Ways to Achieve the Ideal Home Office Space

When you operate a home-based business, it’s easy for professional and personal to seep together. But to maintain balance – and your sanity – dedicated office space is a must. Regardless of whether you have an office-ready room in your home or you need to take a more creative approach to work at home, here are three solutions you can work with.

Get a Whole New Home

With the housing market continuing to fluctuate, now may be the perfect time to buy a new house. If you’re finding that working, living, and learning at home is too much for your existing floor plan, consider looking for a new property instead, and work with an experienced real estate professional from DEBnAIR Real Estate who will be familiar with the nuances of your housing market.

Spotlight Square Footage

The size of your home matters – as does the layout. Research home prices in your area to determine what you can afford and how much square footage you can dedicate to a new office. Just be wary of purchasing a home that needs a lot of work just because you can buy at a lower price. Homes being sold “as is” could possibly have major issues, including a leaking roof, termite infestation, or structural problems.

Know the Neighborhood

Operating a home-based business is freeing in many ways. But if you need to see clients at home or receive deliveries, you must know the rules in your neighborhood. For example, if your area is not zoned for business, your daily operations could cause issues, explains Virtual Vocations.

Forecast for Corporate Growth

Even if your home-based business is an entrepreneurship, don’t discount growth potential. If you plan to hire employees – or just an assistant – in the future, you’ll need more office space. Or, if you need to store products, storage is another crucial item on your home buying checklist. Consider what size office you need now – and what you might need later.

Register Your Business

Now is the perfect time to reconsider your business entity. If you’re operating a home-based business, setting up an LLC for your business will allow you to shield your personal assets from legal liability. If you’re considering Arizona LLC registration, you can save by using a formation service instead of an attorney to form your LLC.

Use an Add-On to Your Advantage

Building an office space might be an option, even if buying a new home isn’t in the budget. Here are three options to consider.

Re-Do a Garage for Official Office Space

Overhauling your garage may be an excellent way to earn office space. While you will need to consider insulation – and heating and cooling – a garage conversion could make a great office space.

Set Up a Separate Studio

A separate studio space may be ideal for a work area. Especially if you have a large yard, a standalone shed, park model mobile home, or even a yurt can serve as a creative and comfortable office.

Boost Your Floorplan by a Few Feet

A bump-out can add crucial extra feet that make all the difference when you’re working from the living room couch. Such an expansion can make room for a small desk and chair, or even a bigger workstation that does double duty. Bump-outs can extend up to 10 or 12 feet, notes HGTV, depending on your lot layout and other factors.

Redesign Your Living Space

Even if building an add-on or moving are not viable office options, all is not lost. Think about redesigning your living space to accommodate your work at home.

Grab Dividers to Design an Office

If the open floorplan you once loved is now a headache from 9 to 5, consider adding barriers to block out noise and distractions. You can hang curtains, place dividers, or add doors to wide entryways to help make a more private office space. In some cases, other noise reduction strategies might be necessary.

Make Room for a Desktop

If you’re in the market for a new computer, consider picking up a desktop. Gone are the days of ugly, unsightly CPU towers; many of today’s options can actually make your office space look remarkably cool. There are a wide variety of options that will fit the look of your space and the amount of room you have to work with.

Set Up an Easy-to-Store Workstation

A stowable office station may be the ideal solution if your home is small or awkwardly laid out. Fold-up desks, laptop stands, and creative DIY projects may be the answer to your problem.

Think Vertically with Your Office Space

From a standing desk to vertical storage, there are ways to build up instead of out with a home office. Plus, if your house has high ceilings, you may have room for a loft that can become your new workspace.

Working from home is rewarding in many ways. Still, finding solitude – and comfort – can be challenging. From buying a new home to making improvements where you currently live, there are ways to overhaul your work environment for the better.
