What is the Corporate Housing industry?top
Not every business matter can be handled during a weekend seminar or week-long visit to a branch office.  Quite often an executive or project manager must remain in Melbourne for more than a few weeks.

The Corporate Housing industry was developed to provide temporary or short-term apartment accommodation.  Corporate housing is available for a minimum stay of 28 nights, however the average stay is 6-9 months.  Apartments available for corporate housing can range from fully furnished residential apartments in Melbourne’s CBD to townhouses and/or houses in outer Melbourne regions.

The cost of corporate housing is substantially lower than hotels or serviced apartments, but may be substantially higher than comparable long-term residential housing.  All Corporate Keys Melbourne apartments are fully furnished to a high standard and include all utilities as well as telephone connection and calls.  The level of personal service provided by Corporate Keys is much higher than can be expected from the residential real-estate market.  Key advantages of Corporate Keys corporate housing solutions is that guests are only required to give 28 days’ notice prior to vacating a property, and can book an apartment in Melbourne for as short a period as 28 nights.

The benefits of corporate housing are numerous, beginning with the improved living conditions for visiting executives and managers.  After a productive workday, guests can relax in a home-like environment, rather than a sterile and impersonal hotel room.  Spouses and children can often accompany a business traveller with corporate housing privileges.  Guests can store and cook their own food, eliminating the need for expensive restaurant dining.

Visiting executives can also entertain guests or hold private meetings away from the office.
Corporate housing in Melbourne is offered by Corporate Keys Australia in Melbourne’s Southbank, CBD and surrounding areas.
