One rule of thumb about commercial office space is that if you plan on renting a short term lease - like monthly or 6 month terms - then go with a furnished option. on the other hand if you plan on renting an office space (in a larger building or office park facility) for 12 months or longer, then you should try
to buy your own furniture and maybe even hire an office interior designer to help you with the layout and flow. Check out our office space articles to learn more about the local real estate market and the rest of California.
