Why Managed Space Will Dominate in 2025

Managed office spaces are redefining the landlord-tenant relationship by combining the flexibility of serviced offices with the stability of traditional leases.

Unlike serviced offices, managed spaces offer businesses fully customised, ready-to-use offices with operational support bundled into a single fixed cost.

For landlords, this model offers higher net effective rents (NERs), reduced void periods, and the ability to meet evolving tenant demands while retaining control over their assets.

Here’s why managed office spaces are set to dominate the market in 2025:

Tenant-First Approach

Managed spaces empower tenants with fully-furnished, ready-to-use offices, eliminating upfront capital expenditure. Tenants also benefit from premium services such as internet, cleaning, and facilities management, all included in a single monthly fee.

Shorter, Simpler Leases

Unlike traditional leases, managed spaces offer thinner contracts with fixed yielding-up provisions, faster occupancy processes, and reduced legal complexity. This flexibility aligns with evolving tenant demands.

Higher Returns for Landlords

Managed space strategies yield NERs 15 – 20% higher than traditional leases. By bundling services, landlords can offer a premium product while reducing void periods.

Adapting to Market Changes

With more companies embracing hybrid work models, demand for customised and flexible spaces continues to grow. Managed spaces allow landlords to stay competitive without committing to pure play serviced office models.

Enhanced Asset Appeal

Managed spaces position assets in the “quality” market segment. TSP’s Core to Floor™ model, for instance, enables landlords to offer traditional and managed spaces concurrently, maximising market reach and tenant choice.
