Offices for rent in Columbus: 182 private units from 54 ft²

Private offices in conventional buildings, fully serviced suites, coworking desks, meeting rooms, business addresses and virtual offices. Serviced and coworking space is let on flexible monthly terms; a conventional lease is usually signed for a year or more.

Serviced offices and coworking desks are furnished, wired and ready to use — usually within a few business days. A conventionally leased floor needs a fit-out, which typically takes weeks to a few months depending on the scope of work.

For serviced offices and coworking, many operators work with foreign entities. For a conventional lease landlords normally expect a US entity, a local guarantor or a larger deposit. Setting up an LLC or a corporation is straightforward and does not block the search.

No. Our service is free for tenants — the fee is paid by the landlord or the operator. You compare buildings, pick the units you like and book a viewing directly, with no commission on your side.

Of the 180 Columbus offices with a published price, 38 are under $1,000 a month, 50 fall between $1,000 and $2,500, 49 between $2,500 and $5,000, 20 between $5,000 and $10,000, and 23 ask $10,000 or more. The median is $2,750. The cheapest is $140 — a 54 ft² room at 1900 Polaris Parkway; the most expensive is $299,888 for a 70,428 ft² floor plate at East Gay Street 85.

It depends on the product. A serviced suite quotes one monthly figure that already covers furniture, internet, reception, cleaning and building services — the private units here are quoted per ft² a month, $1.45 to $6.97, and that rate is what you pay. A conventional lease quotes base rent only: operating expenses, utilities, your own fit-out and usually parking are added on top, and the term runs multi-year rather than twelve months. Ask what parking costs per space per month before you compare two buildings.

Yes. 30 of the 182 private offices are under 250 ft², at $140 to $1,360 a month, and 11 of those are 150 ft² or smaller, at $140 to $740. They are spread across 19 of the 20 buildings we list, so a one-desk budget still leaves you a choice of address. The smallest unit in the city is 54 ft² at 1900 Polaris Parkway.
