For medium-term stays, the nightly rate is only the start. The fastest way to compare hotel vs. furnished rental is to calculate your breakeven day —the moment a furnished rental becomes cheaper than continuing a hotel stay.
At Gumball Properties, we provide fully furnished, move-in-ready housing for 30+ day stays. We’re a housing vendor for professionals—calm spaces, reliable Wi-Fi, and clear terms so you can focus on work, not setup.
Why the Breakeven Day Matters
From the breakeven day forward, the corporate rental delivers net savings. The timing depends on your market, rates, and taxes—use the calculator to see your specific crossover.
