## The Challenge: Entering the Manhattan Office Market

Entering the Manhattan office market can be challenging for companies expanding internationally. Pricing structures, lease terms and building types vary widely, and it can be difficult to identify the right solution without local market access. The team required a private office in Manhattan that met specific criteria while avoiding the complexity of traditional long-term lease commitments.

- Professional workspace for a growing team
- Well-connected Manhattan location
- Flexibility to scale as the team grows
- Access to meeting rooms and shared amenities
- Commercially viable — no long-term lease lock-in
- Quick setup to establish US presence

## The Ofixu Approach

Having already worked with Rise at Seven on multiple London offices, Ofixu understood the company's working style, team structure and preferred type of workspace environment. This allowed the search to move quickly. Ofixu sourced several suitable options across Manhattan and coordinated viewings with workspace operators in the areas that best matched the client's requirements.

### Existing Relationship

Two successful London placements meant Ofixu already understood Rise at Seven's culture, team size needs, and workspace preferences — eliminating the usual discovery phase.

### Manhattan Market Access

Ofixu sourced options across Manhattan's key districts, coordinating directly with workspace operators to identify spaces matching the brief — from Midtown to Flatiron and beyond.

### Flexible Terms Secured

The shortlisted space at 27 East 28th Street offered tiered pricing with commitment-based discounts, allowing Rise at Seven to choose the level of flexibility that suited their growth plans.

## Commercial Terms & Savings

The selected space at 27 East 28th Street offered tiered pricing based on commitment length, giving Rise at Seven the flexibility to choose terms that matched their growth trajectory.

| Commitment Length      | Monthly Cost | Savings                       |

| Retail Rate           | $4,070       |                               |
| 6-Month Commitment     | $3,900       | Save $170/mo ($2,040/yr)     |
| 12-Month Commitment    | $3,650       | Save $420/mo ($5,040/yr)     |
