This week, I sit down with Jose McClure from Unit Management, a family-run 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 flex space provider with nearly 60 years of history. 

Founded by Jose's father, the company has steadily expanded over the years and now operates 22 buildings across 20 locations.

After 20 years in residential property, Jose joined the family business four years ago. He now shares what it’s like to step into a company with deep roots and navigate the fast-changing world of flex space.

In this episode, Jose dives into:

• The challenge of proving yourself in a family business
• How Unit Management unintentionally became flex space pioneers
• Why some buildings buzz with life and others just don’t ⚡🤷 

He also sheds light on the not-so-glamorous side:

• The constant headache of business rates 💸
• The complexity of pricing flexible space
• The "organised chaos" that is commercial property management 🤯

Whether you're curious about the flex space industry or the shift from residential to commercial property, Jose’s story gives a candid peek behind the curtain.

Tune in for a lively chat about family, business, property, and the unpredictable world of flexible workspace! 🎧✨
