We decided to start FLXlease after we saw our friends struggle: 1. Get out of fixed-term leases 2. Those who were transitioning to a new chapter in life to find flexible living situations to suit their unique needs 3. Those wanting to travel but not spend a small fortune on Airbnb/VRBO fees 4. Doing Airbnb arbitrage ourselves and realizing how much opportunity exists in the MTR space Being stuck in a lease you no longer wish to continue is a pain, whether you're traveling for extended periods or wanting to change your current living situation. That’s where we come in. FLXlease allows you to access pre-vetted leases that are favorable to both you and your landlord. Seamlessly search our available data base of homes. Inquire about availability and book directly with the landlord. Transparent cost and fee structures are readily available on our site.

@troy_aitken FLXlease seems like a great solution for those needing flexible, longer-term rentals without the hefty fees. The focus on connecting renters with pre-vetted homeowners for stays over 28 days is very practical. I'm curious, does FLXlease offer support in case of disputes or cancellations between tenants and landlords? Looking forward to seeing its impact on the rental market!

@troy_aitken meeting the need whilst complying with local market regs is a problem well worth solving. There must be a way to give folks the flexibility they need while preserving local communities. Best of luck with the launch!

I joined the FLXlease team since I've been on both sides of the coin, both as a renter and as a host. As a renter, I hated paying for 2 home payments due to months-long military TDYs and deployments, living the digital nomad lifestyle internationally, or trying to move into a larger home to accommodate a growing family. Trying to find someone else to take over my lease was difficult and it sure hurt my wallet. As a host, I got edged out by city/local governments on short-term rental bans, ruining my cashflow projections on homes I personally purchased for this reason. Pivoting to mid-term rentals was a high-ticket hustle, and there was no reliable platform that gave me consistent renters or a platform that didn't take too many fees. Finally, by joining FLXlease, I'm part of the solution and taking the driver seat in creating the solution I wish I had when I needed a place to stay, rent out my property, or sublease my long-term lease. We hope everyone will take advantage of our lessons learned and the platform we created so you don't have to relive our past experiences!

Lots of benefits for both homeowners looking to monetize their home and to people with shifty living lifestyles like travel nurses or digital nomads. Great concept. This will be huge!

Over a year ago when we started the idea of FLXlease we sat there frustrated with the current state of leases and travel, it felt like one or the other. We wanted ourselves and others to be able to experience new places and things without breaking the bank or a lease. There had to be a better way, that’s where FLXlease comes in. We offer safe and reliable mid term rentals for people, like ourselves, that want to explore and experience new things without the worry of being scammed and without that crushing feeling you get when you find the perfect place, go to book, and see the cost is doubled by fees. We vet every property and are committed to full transparency with how much it will cost, no surprise fees…ever. Join us today and see what the world has to offer, without worry.

Since COVID hit and the tech world shifted to remote work, I began traveling. Finding a place is the real challenge. Airbnb is absurdly expensive. Their fees, while high, are somewhat justifiable since they dominate the market. But realistically, securing a place for a few months is nearly impossible. Websites for short-term leases often provide poor or no options. How do you plan to tackle the chicken-and-egg problem and acquire supply? 28,000 site visits are impressive, but I'm curious about your strategy. The industry seems fixated on Airbnb and it's probably tough as hell to pull off this cover.

A flexible leasing marketplace sounds incredibly useful. It might be beneficial to add a review system for both tenants and homeowners for greater trust and transparency.
