An office for 40 people

$23,880–$68,600 per month

In San Francisco, with the lease signing. Rent and all ten Services, together.

That is $597–$1,715 per person per month, in 5,200–8,400 square feet. Once, on arrival: $32,000–$113,200 one time for Furniture, IT, and the Move.

Every month

San Francisco, for a team of 40


Rent
5,200–8,400 square feet at $38–$78 per square foot per year, full service

Everything else
Insurance, Internet, Access, Janitorial, Trash, and Utilities, recurring

Rounded to the increments a quote arrives in. Rent here is the citywide asking range; a neighbourhood moves it, and the table below states by how much.


Per person

At 40 people an office costs $597–$1,715 per person per month, rent and all ten Services. That is the monthly total above divided by 40, to the nearest dollar.

Rent is bought by the seat. Internet is one bill for the office: $320–$900 per month at 40 people, or $8–$23 a head. Access, Insurance, and Trash each carry a fixed part on top of a per-person one.

A fully loaded San Francisco office manager is $85,000–$160,000 a year. The house rate is $2,000 per month, flat.
