Production Budget Research - Properties

An important part of a productions budget, and a pretty sizeable chunk of it too is the property where it will be made. Now then since this is imaginary it doesn't really matter where we actually have our office though it does have to be large enough for our imaginary needs.

So since there's no rule telling me where to go, I can have my office anywhere I like, and where I'd like is in Bath, England, because it's where I'll actually be living after uni.

I'll check for properties in or near Bath and pick whichever I prefer.


I like this property, it's in the center of Bath and is a decent size for what I need. The property has 2 floors and they can be rented independently. The rent is calculated at £13.50 per square foot.

Floor 1: 1,245 sq f = £16,807.50 per annum
Floor 2: 1,425 sq f = £19,237.50 per annum
Both: £36,045


This is a large office block in Bristol, with 3,310 sq f, rentable per square foot at £9 each per annum.


A nice looking office in a convenient location in Bath, no information is included on the website about price or size however...


The cheapest office I've come across so far. Located near the center of Bath and only £350 pcm (per calendar month). No info on the size again, and it looks rather small...


Again within walking distance to the center of Bath, no prices are included on the website.

So far, Edgar House is my favourite by a country mile. It is the most expensive of the ones I've looked at, at £13.50 per sq f but at £36,045 for the year it's still a fairly reasonable amount, especially for property in Bath.
