The second landlord's office building, activities with the second landlord.

The whole floor of Shenzhen is rented, and the high entry threshold of Grade A office buildings in Shenzhen has blocked many small and medium-sized enterprises who want to enhance their image by entering Grade A office buildings, but are unable to rent large-area office buildings. Yesterday, the reporter visited the office buildings in Futian, Nanshan and Luohu, and found that some specialized business office service companies rented several floors of office buildings in advance, and then subletted them into small apartments to make profits by using the rent difference.

Most office buildings have "second landlords"

A small enterprise engaged in the financial industry encountered "growing pains". The company's decision-makers want to work in Jingji 100, but they can only rent an area of 200 square meters, which is far from the requirement of "full-floor lease".

Small and medium-sized enterprises in Shenzhen, which have mushroomed, are facing "growing pains", which is a business opportunity for some powerful business office service companies.

These business office service companies active in Shenzhen Grade A office market are called "second landlords" of office buildings by the industry.

"Every Grade A office building in Futian Central District has this kind of business office service company. They rent several floors of office buildings as a whole, and then divide them into areas of ten square meters to hundreds of square meters according to customer needs, and then sublet them. " Li Changwei, regional manager of Futian East District, Ministry of Commerce of zhonglian real estate, told reporters that the office space of some large companies is as high as tens of thousands of square meters.

Chen Ding, a Hong Kong-funded company, rented the 20th to 26th floors of Jingji 100 Building (of which the 22nd floor was rented by other companies), with a total floor area of about 20,000 square meters, and then split it into small offices of 160~600 square meters for rent. This kind of charter business is not bad, and the occupancy rate has reached 60% since February this year; There are 12 office buildings in Futian Central District, such as Jinzhonghuan Business Building, Zhuoyue Times Square and Nord Financial Center. Lei Gesi Business Service Company rented two and a half floors of office buildings in Allianz Building, Pengnian Square in Luohu and Nanshan New Times Square in Futian Central District.

Small and medium-sized enterprises like "second only to Grade A"

"Working in a Grade A office building is very conducive to enhancing our corporate image, and the most important thing is to help the company expand its business." A person in charge of a company that just rented a 200-square-meter area of Building 3 of Century Center of Excellence told reporters.

"The leasing demand of these SMEs is mostly around 200 square meters, and the related supporting requirements for Grade A office buildings are higher." Candy Xiao, regional business director of Shenzhen Zhongyuan Real Estate Shop Department, believes that previously, there were sublets and sublets for Grade B office buildings in Luohu or factories in Futian and Nanshan, such as Bagualing and Chegongmiao. Now the leasing demand of enterprises is more high-end, and the phenomenon of "inferior to Grade A" is becoming more and more common.

Zhang Wanxian, a Chen Ding investor, said that some offices set up by foreign companies or temporary rental places of some enterprises like to look for Grade A office property. These customers are "well-known", although they have little requirements for office space, they have quite high requirements for office environment.

The profit comes from the rent difference.

The reporter learned that some charter companies provide Grade A services while subletting office buildings. Chen Ding invested in setting up a reception desk on each floor to serve all subletting companies on the whole floor, and when renting Jingji 100 building, it was equipped with 2-3 specialized secretaries to take charge of administrative or other logistics work. In addition, there are floor leisure areas, conference rooms and training rooms, and these services are free.

"In order to attract customers, some powerful charter companies provide some free supporting services for the leased enterprises, but there are still relatively rich profit margins." Li Changwei said that the chartering enterprise reached a strategic cooperation intention with the developer, and chartered for several years at a lower market price, and this price remained unchanged during the lease period. The rent of Grade A office buildings in Shenzhen has increased greatly in recent years. According to the statistics of Zhongyuan Real Estate, the average rent of second-hand office buildings in Shenzhen in 2009 was 95 yuan/m2, and the rent level in April of 20 142 was 142 yuan/m2, with an increase of nearly 50%. The rent subletted by the leasing company rises with the market every year, and the rent difference during the period is considerable.

"Charter" forms an industrial chain

After a long period of development, charter companies have formed a complete industrial chain.

Some small and medium-sized charter companies have established long-term cooperative relations with real estate agencies. In order to reduce the vacancy rate, the charter company will inform the intermediary company to release the inventory before the lease expires, and the intermediary company will be happy to provide quick service for these fixed long-term customers. In addition, most charter companies will decorate the office buildings they have taken over, and have established fixed cooperative relations with some decoration companies. As a result, an industrial chain with charter companies as the center, decoration companies before and real estate agents after has been formed.

Compared with the coarse industrial chain of small and medium-sized charter companies, the industrial chain extended by large business office service companies with similar strength is longer and more detailed.

Large business office service companies have their own management team, and provide outsourcing services for leasing enterprises through a business service platform, including human resources services, business, legal consultation, financial outsourcing and so on. There are dozens and hundreds of small and medium-sized enterprises that provide leasing services by large commercial service companies. These small and medium-sized enterprises generally purchase through the service platform of business service companies. Many downstream enterprises in the "charter industry chain" specialize in outsourcing business of business service companies, and their income is quite objective.
