There are many benefits to moving your business into an existing older (and even historic) building in Georgia. Customers who enter your building can get the feeling of longevity, stability and nostalgia. Typically, old historic buildings or homes are located in central areas close to town and potential or existing customers. Let’s not forget the landscaping and historical features of an old home that cannot be found in newly constructed buildings. Trees that are over a century are priceless features on older properties.
The benefits of an older business building are many. However, there are some things you will need to consider.
- Is your building safe for customers? You do not want to be held liable for any structural issues that could cause harm or injury to your customers or clients. Uneven concrete can cause a trip and fall and then a potential lawsuit.
- Are your customers getting or sensing the feeling of security when they enter your building or are they hearing or feeling creeks, squeaks or sinking flooring? Buckling, uneven or sinking floors can make customers feel uneasy and may not give them the feeling of security that they need.
