“We searched for premises via Oikotie’s commercial property service and other similar platforms, and contacted Bureau Real Estate through an Oikotie listing,” says Juha Kari, CEO of Above IT.
Initially, the company attended several viewings with different agents. The most challenging aspect of the process was that pricing and services varied between providers, making comparisons difficult.
Above IT requested approximately 100 m² of premises, including a larger room for another group company and a meeting room. Availability of parking spaces was also important. Bureau's agent presented several properties at once in the desired area, resulting in a couple of good options left for the final selection.
“The added value from the agent was evident as we were able to visit premises managed by several different owners in one trip, which sped up the process. Additionally, the agent successfully negotiated an excellent overall arrangement for us. The process was smooth, and with a professional handling matters, we avoided major pitfalls,” says Kari.
Above IT’s new stylish office space is located in Quartetto Business Park, Leppävaara, Espoo. The property also offers versatile business support services such as lobby reception, meeting rooms, a lunch restaurant, representative facilities, fitness and physiotherapy services, and laundry services. The location provides excellent transport connections and a conducive environment for business growth.
