Top 10 Corporate Housing Providers in Austin Texas (3000+ rentals)

Are you relocating to Austin, TX for employment, recreation, or adventure? Be prepared for a challenging rental market that is highly competitive. Due to a lack of housing alternatives in and around Austin, obtaining short-term accommodation can be difficult, even in the suburbs of Round Rock, Cedar Park, and Pflugerville.

Yet, Austin is the place to be in Texas if you’re looking for a short-term rental. With an average occupancy rate of 65% in 2021, Austin’s short-term rental market will continue to surpass that of other Texas towns. Austin’s occupancy rate increased to 72% in Q2 2022, above San Antonio’s occupancy rate of 64.1% for the same quarter.

Short-term rentals must adhere to strict city rules, which include getting an operating license, evidence of property insurance, and paying a non-refundable charge. Annual license renewal is required of owners of short-term rental properties; failure to do so might result in a fine of up to $2,000 and the loss of their operating license.

For the past 20 years, Austin’s popularity has continuously increased, and in 2022, it will surpass San Francisco as the city with the second-fastest growth in the nation. As of July 1, 2021, the Census Bureau anticipated that there will be 2,352,426 people living in Austin. Austin has drawn well-known Silicon Valley businesses like Amazon, Google, and Tesla because to its unique combination of a booming technological hub, a high concentration of venture capital, a pleasant environment, and a dynamic culture.
