What You Need To Know About Furnished Apartments
This is all about furnished apartments. They can be a much better option than staying at hotels. Plus, we will let you know about the many benefits (and luxuries) available to you!
Our Area Is Growing
Did you know that in 2019, over 100 companies started (or expanded their business operations) in the Raleigh/Durham area? That is over 6,600 jobs added and almost half of all of these companies are in Software Development, Pharmaceutical Manufacturing or the Bio-Tech engineering space. With new job creation comes a need to find highly skilled workers in these fields. The Triangle has a long list of potential candidates, but many of these positions are filled by candidates outside of the area. This requires that those new hires Relocate!
If you are one of these new candidates that is selling a home, transferring to the area for work, and needing to find a temporary furnished residence while you decide on your permanent home, this blog is for you!

Where do I choose to Stay? (Furnished Apartment vs. Hotel Rooms)
Furnished Apartment Features
Hotel Room Features

- Furnished Apartments: The average size of a 1 bedroom/1 bath is 750 Sq Ft. Not to mention a full kitchen to cook and serve meals, a private bedroom, and a Washer/Dryer in every suite.
- Hotels: Offer an average of 400 Sq Ft of space, 1 or 2 beds with linens and towels and sometimes internet service you have to pay for to use, and let’s not even talk about the lack of privacy
- The comfort of your own space to relax, have a family meal, spend time with loved ones is priceless. All with the best security features on the market. Secure entry buildings, concierge service accepting deliveries, you will know the meaning of relaxation.
- Hotels do have good security, key cards (to get in and out of the building) and amenities, but the question is will you ever relax, sharing that space with 1-3 other people, in a 400 Sq Ft box? We all know the answer to this. No meaningful family time, no privacy, no ability to relax fully.
No Need To Start From Scratch
Hotels have consistent brand recognition. In other words, what you see is what you get. That does bring some comfort to people.
