Office Availability by Floorspace and Capacity in Greater Melbourne
When compared to the national average, Melbourne's breakdown of offices by floor space and by capacity is pretty consistent. Compared with Sydney, though, Melbourne has a higher share of its available space and offices devoted to teams under 15: close to nine in ten of the Melbourne CBD's available offices are for teams under 15, against about eight in ten in the Sydney CBD.
Greater Melbourne CBD Desk Rates by Space Type
Finally when it comes to an analysis of desk rates by coworking operator vs traditional businesses, coworking operators in Melbourne tend to have higher desk rates for a private office due to the additional amenities they provide yet these same operators charge less for a single coworking desk vs a shared desk in a traditional office. If your business doesn't need all the amenities of a fully serviced office, a shared space in a traditional space can be an attractive option in the short to medium term.
