You’ve decided to plant a flag in New York. But you’re not here yet — and committing to a 5-year lease for a city you’re still testing is a terrible way to start.

Most out-of-state companies looking at NYC office space hit the same wall: you need a real address and a real office, but you don’t know which neighborhood works for your team yet. You don’t know if you’ll have 3 people in the office or 12. And you definitely don’t want to negotiate a commercial lease from 800 miles away.

Jay Suites was built for exactly this situation.

Start with a real office, not a long-term guess

Jay Suites has ten locations across Manhattan and Brooklyn — Grand Central (369 Lexington Ave), Midtown East (515 Madison Ave), Madison Avenue (315 Madison Ave), Bryant Park (1441 Broadway), Fifth Avenue (15 West 38th St), 34th Street near Penn Station (31 West 34th St), Chelsea (159 West 25th St), Financial District (30 Broad St), Wall Street (40 Wall St), and Downtown Brooklyn (41 Flatbush Ave).

Flexible as month to month and up to three years.

Pick a neighborhood, move in, and figure out what works. If Midtown doesn’t feel right, switch to the Financial District next month. Your agreement doesn’t trap you.

What you get from day one

Every Jay Suites office comes furnished and ready:

• Phones and high-speed WiFi
• Front desk receptionist handling your mail and greeting visitors
• Daily cleaning
• Monthly credits for on-site meeting rooms
• Break rooms with refrigerators, microwaves, and complimentary coffee and water
• Biometric access for your team

You’re not cobbling together furniture from Wayfair and hoping your internet gets installed on time.

What it costs

Private offices start at $1,199/month, all-inclusive. A 5-person office runs about $2,500/month. No utilities surprise, no maintenance fees, no broker’s commission. One number.

Compare that to a traditional Manhattan lease: broker fees (10-15% of total lease value), build-out costs ($50-150/sq ft), furniture, IT setup, and a 3-5 year commitment — before you’ve confirmed this is the right city for your business.

Why out-of-state teams keep choosing this

When you’re opening remotely, you need a professional address your clients can visit and a space that works the day your team lands. You also need the ability to walk away without a six-figure penalty if things change — and they usually do in year one.

Your team flies in Monday and the office is ready. You’ve got a Manhattan address on your business cards this week. And if you outgrow the space or decide to relocate within the city, you adjust your plan — you don’t call a real estate attorney.
