• Do I have to commit to a year long lease?
  No. You can rent a workspace on a flexible month-to-month basis and leave anytime you no longer need your space. If you wish, you can get a lease for a longer period. We require a refundable security deposit at the time you sign up, and 30-day notice if you decide to move out.
  
  
• What's included in each workspace?
  The building has been designed with the convenience and economy for our tenants in mind. All of our workspaces have high ceilings and are individually heated and include a window and a private, locking entrance.  All workspaces are pre-wired for phone lines, cable television and high-speed internet access which can be set up through Comcast, Wave or ITDreamwire.
  
  
• How much does it cost?
  Our rates start around $325. Creative workspaces are economical because you can rent the exact size you require without getting charged for a bigger space then you need. You don't need to commit to a long term lease, so you can rent for only the number of months that you actually use the space. Each workspace is priced differently depending on size, shape, condition and location. Rent is full service, which means that expenses such as heat, electricity, parking, taxes and common area maintenance are included in the base rent.
  
  
• How large is each workspace? How much space do I need?
  Common sizes are 10x13 and 15x15. A 10x13 is sufficient space for a one person office, while a 15x15 is a more spacious two person office, suitable for meeting with clients. We also have sizes both smaller and larger than that.
  
  
• Can I sign a year lease instead of a month to month?
  We only do month to month leasing at Creative workspace.  We want to give our clients the flexibility to expand, or move when they need to, without being bound by a long term lease. 
  
  
• What if I need to break my lease? 
  Since we only do month to month contracts, we just require 20 days written notice, due on or before the 10th of the month you intend to move out.
  
  
• Is there anything I can't do at Creative Workspace?
  Our spaces are highly versatile and well suited for many activities. We do require that all activities be safe, legal, consistent with zoning regulations, and not disruptive to others. Prohibited activities include manufacturing, auto repair, machine shops and band rehearsals. If you're wondering if your activity is a good fit, please feel free to contact us.
  
  
• Can my clients, associates or family visit?
  Our buildings are people-friendly, so feel free to have visitors. Retail businesses are welcome, but only in designated storefront spaces. On-line retail sales companies are welcome in the workspaces, as long as your customers are doing their shopping on-line.
  
  
• Can I receive clients and other visitors at my workspace?
  Visitors may contact a tenant by using the electronic directory located next to the elevator on the ground floor. The tenant will then buzz in the visitor from their workspace.
  
  
•  Can I paint my space? 
  Yes!  We provide the blank slate for you to make the space your own.  You can paint, add shelving or window treatments, or even change the flooring. However, we ask that you return the unit in the original condition upon moving out. 
  
  
• Can I move to a larger or smaller space if my business requires me to? 
  Yes!  Provided we have units available.  If you are in need of something smaller, larger, or another unit, we can definitely work with you on your space needs.

• What are your office hours? 
  Our office hours are Monday thru Friday, 9:00am – 4:00pm.  We are closed on all federal banking holidays.

• Can I pay my rent with a credit card? 
  Not at this time.  We provide a convenient online service for you to automatically deduct your rental payments each month.  We also accept checks or money orders.
  
  
• Can I get a mail box? 
  Yes!  We have boxes available for rent at $15.00 per month. 

 

• What other amenities does the building offer? 
  Here at our Lynnwood location, we have a community lunch room/waiting area for you and your clients.  We also offer free coffee in the lounge of the leasing office during normal business hours.  We have free Wi-Fi, and big screen monitor in our large conference room for all of your presentation and meeting needs.  In addition we have an onsite maintenance technician, to fix any issue that should arise.
  
  
• How much is the conference room to rent? 
  We have two conference rooms available for tenants to use.  They rent at $10 per hour, or we offer an unlimited package for $50 per month, which allows you up to 3 hours per day of conference room bookings.
  
  
• Do you have exercise facilities?
  No, there are no showers or changing rooms.
  
  
• Do you have any units with water? 
  We do have a handful of units in Lynnwood that are plumbed.  These units are highly sought after, and have a waiting list.  If you are interested in being added to our waiting list, please contact the property manager.

  The building opened as Creative Workspace in 2008. The building was know as Meadowdale Work Lofts from 2013 to 2017. In 2018, we returned to the Creative Workspace name.
