Corporate Housing Specialists (CHS) Experience
Hello BP!
I own a rental in Portland, Maine and am currently looking for tenants. An acquisition specialist from Corporate Housing Specialists reached out to me asking if I would be interested in renting to their company. Seems like a great deal on paper, they do all of the legwork and are insured (property management, furnishing, cleaning, landscaping, minor maintenance, etc.) but I can't seem to find any reviews/testimony on their behalf that don't come from their website. They mostly rent and sublet corporate housing in the Denver area and just wondering if anyone has any experience with them. Essentially they market themselves as a free property management service. Hesitant as things that sound too good to be true, usually are.
Their only required lease clauses (added to my standard lease) are:
- allowance of subletting
- Option to renew an additional year at same terms with no more than 10% rent hike
- Option to terminate lease with 60 days notice to landlord in response to laws/regulations passed that inhibit business activities directly related to CHS business model with no penalty
If anyone has any experience with this company would love to hear it! Thanks so much!
