How many of you guys operate from an actual leased office?
Do you find it easier/more profitable this way?
At what stage did you decide to lease a office ie: how big was ur company?
I would like to operate from a leased office in the future. At the moment I operate from my home office but I feel like I'm trying to do a million things at once!Aswell as run business, check on staff, paperwork, and also a few shifts cleaning myself!!!!
Does anyone hire and office and some staff in it to take care of things and is it worth the extra expense for you?
We are not big enough for this expense yet but I hope to be able to do it in the future.

I run my business from home but if I was to go for it I would make sure that I was bringing in over twice the amount it costs to rent an ofice this includes gas + elec + rates and go for something small. I would get my wife to man the phone and do other office duties while I went out to inspect new sites this way I still save money.

Ive looked at it many times, but the professional advise given to me over the last couple of years is that, if your making money from working at home, then stick with it, there are more expenses attached to working from an office.
 I think eventually we will have to move, (having taken over the front room, the garage, the spare room, and the utility, :P)
Think of all those wonderful daytime TV programmes you will miss ;D ;D (no one will own up to watching them ;D)
