What people ask us most
These are the questions we hear on viewings. If yours isn't here, call us — the answer will be just as direct.
Viewing and the lease
You call or write, we agree a date — usually within two working days, often for the next day. Our own person meets you there, not an agent: you walk the space, say what you need, and hear right away what can be changed and on what terms. A viewing costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
A standard lease runs for a fixed term, usually a year with the option to renew — for larger units and larger fit-outs we normally talk about a longer commitment, because that's when it makes sense for both sides. From handshake to signature it's typically days, not weeks: our own lawyer drafts the lease and no third party is holding things up.
The grounds and the notice period are always written into the lease itself — they aren't identical for everyone and depend on the term and the scope of fit-out. At signing we read that part aloud so you know what you're getting into. If your situation changes early, tell us; with a tenant who talks to us, an arrangement can usually be found.
Money
The rent covers the space itself. Service charges cover what the space consumes or what the common areas give it — energy, water, heating, cleaning of common areas, waste collection, lift and plant servicing, statutory inspections. You get the breakdown with the offer, not with your first invoice.
The advance is set by floor area and type of operation — an office and a shop with chilled display cases come out very differently. Meters are read and after year-end a statement follows: overpayments come back, shortfalls are invoiced. If the advance turns out to be consistently off, we adjust it during the year so the statement holds no surprises.
A deposit is a normal part of a lease and is agreed for the specific unit — its size depends on the type of operation, the term and the scope of fit-out we do for you. It's always stated in the lease. It covers any arrears or damage; if there are none, it comes back when the lease ends.
We own and manage the buildings, so there's no agency between us charging you a commission — typically a month's rent. You negotiate directly with the party that signs the lease. The price you see in the listing is the price we discuss.
The space and running it
Yes — one of the upsides of the building being ours. Partitions, layout, data cabling, a kitchenette, the hygiene facilities a clinic needs: we sort it before you move in. The scope and who pays for it is agreed in the lease; with a longer term we can take more of the fit-out on ourselves.
You can park at every building, but the arrangement differs — some have reserved tenant spaces, others a visitor car park or on-street city parking nearby. We'll go through the actual options and space counts at the viewing, so nothing is left to assumptions.
Yes. We issue tenants a consent to register their seat in the commercial register — a normal part of the lease, not a paid extra. You'll need it for the registration and for later changes, so feel free to ask for it at signing.
Units marked as available are ready to hand over — in practice within days of signing, if there's no fit-out. If there is, the date follows its scope and you're told it up front, not as we go. Some units become free at a future date; that date is always in the listing.
The current listing is on the Rent page — filter by type, building and floor area, and put several units side by side in the comparison. If nothing fits, send us your brief; units come free on a rolling basis and we'll write when something turns up.
When something breaks
The emergency line, +421 910 808 404. It's staffed round the clock — weekends, nights and holidays. Our own building manager picks up, not a switchboard: heating, water, power, lifts, locked doors. Routine things that aren't urgent can go to the same number during the day.
We do. Electrical, lift and fire-safety inspections, air-conditioning and boiler servicing are on us — a tenant neither arranges nor pays for them separately; they're part of the service charge. If a shutdown is planned, you hear about it in advance and we schedule it to get in your way as little as possible.
