Find San Francisco Office Space for Lease or Rent
It is hard to find great office space for rent in San Francisco.
We can help. Our local tenant reps know the market thoroughly and will leave no option undiscovered! All at no cost to you.
With over 76 million square feet of office space, you’d think that there would be a lot of available office space in San Francisco. Unfortunately if you are looking for San Francisco office space, what you will find is a very tight market, especially in many of the more popular areas of the city like South of Market (SOMA), the Financial District and Union Square. Not only that, but the office space that is available comes with a very high price tag in the $50+ per square foot (per year) price range. So, for a 2,000 square foot office you’d most likely find yourself paying in excess of $100,000 per year.
The main San Francisco office space submarkets include:
Financial District
South Financial District
South of Market
Union Square
Civic Center
North Waterfront
Potrero Hill
Mission District
Making mistakes in your selection of office space in SF is not something that you would want to do. It can get very expensive quickly. It is easy to avoid.

They will make sure that you get to see all of you viable options, avoid mistakes and will help you negotiate the best possible deal available for the office space you select.
