Question - Service Based Business & multiple locations

[cs10kfeg]

We have a service area business. We currently hide our address on GMB because we meet clients by appointment only. We want to expand to other cities.

Are we able to create a GMB listing for each location and hide the address? I wasn’t sure if we were able to have multiple GMB listings with hidden addresses.

Also, I have found several offices in larger buildings that also offer virtual office space. I do not want to be delisted. Should we overlook these office spaces altogether bc they are associated with virtual offices? Even if our address is hidden?

Service area businesses are only allowed 1 listing and virtual offices are not allowed. Please read this article for more details on the subject: When Can Service-Based Businesses Have Multiple Google My Business Listings? - Sterling Sky Inc

Thanks! I have read the article and it is helpful. Although, these would be physical office spaces, not residential addresses. Are we still limited to one listing?

Just to clarify, I do not plan on using a virtual office. My concern is that many offices happen to be in larger buildings that also offer virtual offices. Should these offices be avoided even if the address will be hidden?

If the offices are staffed and customers come to them, you are allowed to have a listing.
