Wondering what Corporate Housing is and how it compares to other housing? Let’s look at the definition and then dive deeper into what it can also include.
Corporate Housing is fully furnished, temporary housing that is typically in an apartment setting. Units typically include furniture, housewares, amenities, cable, utilities and internet at one inclusive rate. Most Corporate Housing has a minimum stay of 30 days. The average stay is 2-3 months but can be longer. Typically, this type of housing will be more expensive than an unfurnished apartment, condo or house, but it includes everything you’ll need for a short-term stay. All you will need to bring is your suitcase, work materials and food.
Professional providers such as Corporate Quarters USA coordinate these units for travelling professionals, disaster relief workers, displaced families, military personnel and special groups. Corporate Housing, as an industry, started as an option for company employees, but today includes vacationers, students and people that are relocating. Some of the most common industries that utilize corporate housing are:
- Healthcare, such as travelling nurses
- Professional Services, such as consultants
- Government and Military, such as reassigned service members
- Disaster Relief, such as FEMA workers
Rather than go through the trouble of setting up and paying deposits for utilities, furniture and insurance, Corporate Housing allows you to simply pay one fee to take care of everything. The rate you’ll pay for housing will depend on length of stay, location and size of your unit.
Corporate Housing offers a high level of privacy and features the comforts of home. In this setting, you can cook meals in the fully outfitted kitchen and do laundry in your own unit, which can’t be accomplished in a hotel-setting. Housekeeping services are available many times for an additional fee. Many facilities also include additional amenities like an on-site gym, pool and entertainment areas like a clubhouse or outdoor grilling area.
This option is also less of a commitment than renting a private apartment for a year, which is typically the length of a lease. Finally, you may be able to bring your pet if the property is pet friendly. Ask your provider what is included and if pets are additional. If you travel frequently, ask if they have a rewards program for returning clients and/or referrals.
