The Better Alternative to Hotel Living
Furnished housing is the ideal solution for business travel accommodations for stays starting at 7 days or as long as extended projects require. Corporate travelers can enjoy more space, more privacy, greater flexibility of options, and even a lower carbon footprint – all for a lower cost than a hotel. Professionally managed temporary housing makes the entire accommodations experience easier and more flexible.
Business travel surveys indicate that travelers value duty of care, safety, and security on their trips and in their serviced accommodations. Dwellworks Living provides the peace of mind travelers seek by offering stays through our vetted network of reputable accommodations providers.
These services are offered to clients with business travel needs around the world. We also specialize in supporting clients with large outsourcing and offshoring operations in in markets across Asia Pacific, Europe, and Latin America.

How Do Furnished Housing Alternatives Reduce the Cost of Travel?
Temporary living, temporary housing, corporate housing, furnished accommodations, short-term rentals - these are all terms used for furnished apartments that are professionally managed by serviced housing experts and made available for stays as brief as 7 days to those of 12 months or more, depending on the traveler need. Unlike hotels, multi-family housing (think: an apartment building) construction is booming in many markets around the world. More supply means lower prices and greater availability – a win/win for business travel.
The operating costs of furnished accommodations compare favorably with hotels, and these options provide something else: more room and capacity for personal touches, from local tours and orientations to customized and curated lists of restaurants and specialty retail and grocers, to personalized greeting packages that can reflect your company’s brand as well as a warm welcome from the local property manager.

More Choices and Greater Compliance
Professionally managed temporary accommodations are a business-to-business service. The Dwellworks Living portfolio does not include listings from leisure-first sites like Airbnb and VRBO. We offer spacious, sophisticated, ideally situated properties that also meet our clients’ corporate safety and security standards, as well as our own integrity due diligence (IDD) requirements and vetting. This alignment of choice and compliance is a primary reason why we are the leading solutions provider for major employers.
