Short term · no 12-month lease

A short-term rental in Charlotte that is a home, not a lease you are stuck in.

Most Charlotte apartments want twelve months, a credit pull, and a furniture-rental contract on top. This is a furnished three-bedroom townhome you can take for one month, three months, or as long as you need — and leave when you are done.

What a short stay costs, by length

The rate is the same whether you take a month or a quarter. What changes is the tax — North Carolina stops charging it entirely at 90 nights.

Length of stayRateWhat changes
30 – 89 nights$3,300/moNC sales + occupancy tax applies, at 16.25%
90 nights – 6 months$3,300/moNo NC lodging tax at all — 16.25% comes off
6 months or longer$3,100/moLowest rate, and no lodging tax

Every rate includes electricity, water, gas and wifi. One $250 setup fee at move-in covers the deep clean and linens.

What you are not signing up for

The friction of a normal Charlotte apartment lease, item by item, and what happens here instead.

A twelve-month term
Take 30 nights, or 91, or a year. Month-to-month after the initial term.
An unfurnished shell
Furniture, cookware, linens, towels and a workspace are already here.
Four utility accounts
Electricity, water, gas and wifi are in the rent. Nothing to connect, nothing to cancel.
A credit-score threshold
ID verification for every adult and where you are working. No score to clear.
An early-termination penalty
Review the notice and early-departure terms in your written monthly agreement before committing.
A furniture-rental contract
None. That cost is not sitting on top of the rent.

Why 30 nights is the floor

Charlotte, like most cities, draws its regulatory line at 30 days: below it a stay is lodging, above it it is a rental. Staying on the right side of that line is what lets this be a straightforward, HOA-clean arrangement with a written agreement rather than a nightly booking.

It also changes what you are legally taking. A stay under 90 days for vacation or leisure falls under North Carolina’s Vacation Rental Act; a stay for work or relocation is a residential tenancy under Chapter 42 instead, with the protections that carries. We paper it accordingly rather than pretending a three-month work assignment is a holiday.

If you need fewer than 30 nights, a hotel is genuinely the better answer and we will say so.

Booking direct, and what that saves

The same house is listed on Airbnb. Booking here instead removes the platform’s guest service fee, which on a multi-month stay is not a rounding error — it is a meaningful share of a month’s rent.

It also removes the platform from the middle of every conversation. The agreement, the invoice your employer needs, the question at nine on a Sunday night — those come to the owners directly.

Questions

What is the minimum stay?
Thirty nights. There is no maximum — several months is normal and a year is fine.
Is it month to month?
The initial term and any continuation or notice requirements are set out in your written monthly agreement. Confirm those terms with us before committing.
Can I hold dates before my plans are confirmed?
Yes, free, for seven days. Tick the box on the application and those nights come off the calendar while you confirm. No card, no commitment — if it falls through the hold releases itself.
Do you run a credit check?
No credit-score threshold. Every adult staying verifies their ID, and we ask where you are working. That is the screen.
Can two or three of us split it?
That is what three bedrooms and three and a half baths are for. Everyone eighteen or older is named on one agreement, verifies ID, and gets their own door code.
How far in advance do I need to book?
Seven days is the earliest move-in we can take, so the place can be turned over and the paperwork done properly. Further out is easier on the calendar.
