Truss is a leading online marketplace to help small and medium sized business owners find, tour and lease space. Our tech-enabled platform and our people help you find the right space for the best price in record time.
As entrepreneurs, we found the process of leasing office space too laborious and set out to make it as easy as buying a vacation online. We help small businesses find office, coworking, industrial and retail space with more than 300 million square feet available and counting. Our technology enables business owners to confidently find the right space by comparing spaces in our marketplace. Truss also offers dedicated brokers who act as the point person throughout the seamless process.
Plus, we are the only platform to offer price transparency for small business owners, which means we’re the only site to compare pricing on traditional office space and coworking space.
