With the number of entrepreneurs increasing and more small businesses looking for room to grow, there are important decisions to be made by business owners.

One of those being “where is the best place to grow?” I was once told by a professor that as a business “if you’re not growing, you’re dying.” I have actually found this to be a very accurate statement after several years experience in the business industry. Of course, there are many interpretations that can be made about such a bold statement, but that is a discussion for a different day. Obviously one of the most important parts of a business is the physical, functional location where business is conducted, and unless you’re producing services rather than products,  your physical space should eventually need expansion. While it is important to have enough space, there is a large obstacle when looking at purchasing property because most small businesses need to keep liquid capital rather than tying up cash in a real property investment. Accessibility is most certainly a top quality for maximizing property potential. Along with size, location can be that which makes or breaks a business. It is important for a growing business to be in a populated and growing area. Researching future development plans for an area is always an indicator of future growth potential. All of these factors play an important role in choosing a home base for your business, which is why you should check out 2236 Barrington Ave., a property for those business owners looking to grow with short term financial commitments and long term growth potential. With the expansion of the EXPO line in progress, there are many exciting opportunities heading to the surrounding communities. The EXPO line will bring increased exposure and aims to decrease motor vehicle traffic providing a more efficient transportation platform for the Santa Monica area. There are never ending developments in the ongoing project one of which is very exciting as 8 artists are selected for project beautification.

2236 Barrington sits in a prime location, located right off the expo light rail line, for benefiting from this EXPO line expansion and as wise men might say, it is always good to get in ahead of the game. This property features a 2 story, 15,000 sq ft light industrial building available for Sublease, just south of Olympic, with extremely close proximity to I10 freeway and I405 freeway. The space features 7,500 sq ft of open flex space on 1st floor, and 7,500 sq ft on 2nd floor for office use.
