Corporate Rental Rescources
Hi Everyone. I have a condo in a very nice area of Atlanta. Location is PRIME with Mercedes Benz headquarters and many other big corp companies in the vicinity. It's remodeled and furnished with a king and queen beds. It's sad that it sits vacant! I stay there about 10 days every quarter and NEVER when the temperature is below 60 degrees. I was considering using this for a 30 day/ 90 day type corporate rental. I have ZERO desire to do "turns" and run this like an air b&b hotel. In addition, it is my second home, so I keep clothes and some personal belongings there. I have only ever worked with buyers, sellers, & investors so I don't have the slightest idea where to find tenants, corporate renters or where I would even start to find prospects for this saturation. Any advice?
You should definitely check out Furnished Finder, they are a marketplace with a pretty broad audience of travel nurses, traveling professionals, insurance companies etc. I would also consider simply using Airbnb/VRBO as an advertising platform but setting your minimum stay to 30/60/90 days. The tenants would still be those expecting medium-term stays but the reach on those platforms would help your exposure.
A lot of people list their mid term rental properties on the STR platforms with a 30 day minimum.
I have not had any luck with corporate clientele. My rentals appeal a great deal to academics but not corporate visitors. I think that has a lot to do with my husband's and my tastes in design and furnishings. So I don't have a lot of worthwhile advice. I do know that a lot of our local corporate MTR housing is being furnished by luxury apartment buildings and local hotels. I don't know what platforms they use to advertise their units to this market.
If there is a nearby university, I recommend advertising on Sabbatical Homes (sabbaticalhomes.com) and the university off-campus housing site.
Contact their HR department and make that connection. They'll be happy to have you as a resource.

In your area and considering the type of guests you want to attract, I'd look into corporatehousingbyowner
