Coffee machines for a real estate office

Real estate offices drink coffee in two settings. Across the meeting table with a vendor or a landlord, and at the desk between inspections. The first one is seen by clients. The second one is usually bought on the road.

A machine for an agency has to handle both without anyone becoming the office barista.

The cup on the meeting table

Appraisals, signings, and landlord meetings often happen in the office. Offering a drink is expected. A cup made at a button, while the paperwork comes out, is easier than someone leaving the room to boil a kettle.

Arico installs a Saeco Royal Plus. It is an automatic bean-to-cup machine: whole beans in a hopper, a grind for each cup, a button. A new property manager can use it on their first morning.

The headcount is misleading

Sales agents spend much of the week out at inspections and appraisals. Property managers and admin are in more often. Count the people who are actually at their desks on a normal day, then add the clients who come in.

A working example, not an Arico specification: 8 people in the office at 2 cups a day plus 5 client cups a day, about 7 grams a cup, 22 working days. That is about 3.2 kilograms, so plan around 4. Busy months move it. The first month corrects the guess.

The coffee bought on the road

Agents who are out all day buy their coffee at a café between appointments. That is their choice and often their expense. The office cup changes the habit in the mornings and the afternoons, when people are back at their desks. The hidden cost of the café run is that habit, added up without invented figures.

Who looks after it

Reception or the office manager empties the grounds, keeps water in the tank, and fills the hopper. That is the daily job. Servicing and tech support are ours, at $0 while you order beans each month. Who services the machine covers what that includes.

What the office needs

Power, water, and a bench. If the tap is in a separate kitchenette, the machine runs from a tank someone fills. We put the machine in. We do not supply milk or cups, and we do not rebuild the kitchen. Small office coffee machines is the same brief for any small team.

The coffee is from as little as 40 cents a cup, delivered monthly. We install in Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane. The postcode confirms the office.

One question for the principal

Is the coffee for the clients, the team, or both? If it is mainly the clients, put the machine where a meeting can reach it. If it is mainly the team, put it where people already gather. Size the beans from that answer.
