Digital marketing boss liked his office so much he bought the block<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Relocating Unity would have cost \u00a320,000 so it made sense to buy the building and stay put<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unity managing director Pete Frost outside the Millstone Lane offices<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The owner of a digital marketing<\/a> agency has taken the plunge and bought the offices he had been renting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unity managing director Pete Frost have bought the four storey building the firm is based in in Millstone Lane, Leicester.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The business, which offers services ranging from SEO to online PR, web design and social media<\/a> support, has been in an office on the third floor of the old mill building for the last two years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr Frost said the decision was made for them when the previous owner decided to sell up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said: \u201cBasically there was another offer on the table which would have effectively meant a period of uncertainty for Unity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Digital marketing boss bought the block<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI worked out that, if we did end up needing to move, conservatively that would cost my business over \u00a320,000 in packing and removal costs, new leases and rental down payments, and setting up our new office space to suit our business and how we work etcetera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAll that investment for, essentially, nothing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe building is Victorian and is absolutely stunning with beautiful exposed brickwork and big windows letting in a lot of light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs a creative digital agency the whole team at Unity love the space we work in and really didn\u2019t want to leave it so I spoke to the owner and expressed interest in buying the place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAfter a lot of negotiating, hard graft and saving we agreed a price to purchase the entire building thus securing our future as an agency giving both the Unity team and our clients a permanent home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThen Covid-19 and lockdown struck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFortunately as a business we were in a position to be able to complete the deal and, inadvertently, buying the whole building has given my business an additional revenue stream as I have three additional office spaces available to rent.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
