What should I consider when choosing a New York Virtual Office?

There are several items to consider as each business is unique in it’s needs. For this reason, we at VH International Business Solutions provide pricing for all of our services on an a-la-carte basis. You pick and choose only the services you need – we don’t “prepackage” and stick you with services you’ll never need or use.

Address:

Let’s start with the address. This is the main component of your New York Virtual Office.

You will be issued a physical office address with on-site reception and meeting facilities directly on Broadway in Midtown Manhattan’s trendy Flatiron District. Office address rental rates are from only per month. You can use the address as you would any physical office address. We issue you an actual office suite address – not a fabricated suite number, which is usually just a smoke screen for a mailbox. You can walk right into the office address you are issued and meet with your clients, you can’t do that with a mailbox.

Our offices are located on in a high rise office building designed by a renowned architect. The building is a combination of stone, brick, terracotta, iron and copper in the Beaux Arts style with extensive detailing inside and out.

Our office building holds Landmark status from the City of New York – What constitutes a Landmark? A landmark is a building, property, or object that has been designated by the NYC Landmarks Preservation Commission because it has a special character or special historical or aesthetic interest or value as part of the development, heritage, or cultural characteristics of the City, State, or Nation.

Location, Location, Location:

We are across the street from Madison Square Park with its notable surrounding architecture as well as brilliant sunlight from the broad expanse of the area which is also home to such architectural highlights as the World renowned Flatiron Building, the Metropolitan Life and New York Life buildings and the exquisite New York State Appellate Courthouse – as well as multiple foodie hot spots by renowned top chefs.

We also offer easy access to transportation to all parts of the city and the tri-state area. We are within 2 blocks from the R and W subway lines. A block further are the F and V lines, as well as the Path Train. A short walk will bring you right to Penn Station with access to the Long Island Rail Road, New Jersey Transit, and Amtrak.

Mail Handling:

You are welcome to receive mail at the office. Since it is a physical address, there are no limitations on the type of correspondence you can receive. Reception can sign for any UPS, Fedex, DHL, TNT, Certified Mail, Registered Mail, Service of Process, etc. You can select to have your mail forwarded anywhere in the world – anywhere! You can also arrange to pickup mail and have your mail wait for you at reception.
