If your not-for-profit owns its own facility, it likely will have more control of work space than if you lease. However, ownership carries risks — and leasing can provide advantages such as flexibility. For example, if you’re uncertain about your client base and your organization could experience substantial growth, it’s easier to move when your lease expires than to sell real estate. On the other hand, buying property can enable you to build equity and can stabilize your cash flow and community presence. To make the buy-or-lease decision, compare costs of both. We can help you crunch these numbers.
