I really don't agree with the idea that you're going to purposefully
move somewhere knowing it's only for a short while, then move
somewhere else. If SF has been chosen then I'd assume lots of research
was done, and not just picked out of a hat, and so a permanent new
office can be established and not have the upheaval of moving twice in
a year.

If they do go into the City, having a location near public transportation
is an
absolute must.
Thanks Sue, and thanks to everyone else
who has commented. (I've been

You're right about all the various possibilities, and ideally we want to
get oriented before committing ourselves too much. So we're looking for
a sublet or a short-term rental, probably in SOMA, to start. Once we
have more experience with the area and are more settled as a team, we
would then start thinking about a more permanent location.
I've gotten a couple of off-list notes recommending/offering specific
spaces, which is great.
