Corporate Housing vs. Doing It Yourself
Why choose corporate housing rather than piecing everything together on your own?
- We manage setup, delivery, utilities, and deposits for all services.
- One monthly bill instead of juggling separate bills for rent, electric, cable, water, gas, phone, furniture, housewares, maid service, and more.
- We schedule and manage maid services and custom requests.
- Direct corporate billing to simplify accounting.
- National Account Coordinators provide one point of contact nationwide.
- Professional management—removing you from day-to-day traveler needs.
- Lower overall costs via national vendor contracts and bulk discounts.
- Flexible lease terms.
- All major credit cards accepted.
Corporate Housing vs. Hotels
Why choose corporate housing instead of a cramped hotel or extended stay?
- Accommodate your family or multiple travelers—we don’t charge per person.
- Comfort: full-size apartment vs. efficiency hotel room (avg. hotel ~350 sq. ft. vs. avg. apartment ~750 sq. ft.).
- No hotel occupancy tax (for stays 30+ days; local rules may vary).
- Complete kitchen with full appliances, not just a kitchenette.
- Convenience: access to community amenities (pool, fitness, workspace, parking, etc.).
- Pet-friendly options available.
