WHAT LOFT BUYERS NEED FROM THEIR INTERNET CONNECTION
Add high-quality internet access to your list of must-haves when shopping for a new Industrial Loft or Downtown Condo to lease or buy. It could easily be more important than onsite parking or in-unit laundry for those who plan on working from home. Check the service yourself and confirm availability before you move on a property. Not having good internet service should be a deal-breaker when creating your dream live/work home environment.
To “work remotely” means working outside a traditional office or work-from-home. A few benefits of working remotely include increased productivity, better work-life balance, and missing the rush hour cattle drive. Giddy-up internet pony working from home can be frustrating with a poor internet connection. It is estimated that 70% of professionals worldwide work remotely weekly. The trend is so new we are hard-pressed to compare it to 10 or even 5 years ago. We are on the cutting edge of the LIVE/WORK transition. Consider this, 53% of us work remotely for at least half of the week. HALF! Striking a LIVE-WORK balance in our world of zoom calls and file-sharing means maintaining a fast and consistent connection via the available network. #live/work
However, successful remote work cannot be accomplished without a strong internet connection, high speed, and consistent reliability.
Internet Speed
High-speed Internet is beneficial because it allows users to get their work done without interruptions caused by lagging or slow internet connections. This is essential not just for those in graphic design or TV production who have photos or videos they need to upload; it’s also important for salespeople making and taking client calls from home. At every level of a business, high-speed, consistent internet is your company’s new public face, whether in an office cubical or at home on your sofa with your critter.
What Are Good Download and Upload Speeds?
The fastest internet providers in Los Angeles are AT&T, Cox, Frontier, and Earthlink. These four providers offer gigabit speeds to 95% of Los Angeles. Gigabit is the gold standard. Depending on the carrier, you may need a fiberoptic connection already installed. Check with your carrier for rates and availability in your target neighborhood.

Pay attention to wireless service in your target loft or condo as well. If you lose your internet service, it could be the difference between working from home in your stocking feet and putting on pants and going into the office.
