Where Comfort
Makes the Difference™
Stay Furnished Apartments is in the business of helping people as they transition from one home to another. We're based in Charlotte and Raleigh, we've been in the Carolinas since 2010, and we've been doing this for 26 years.
Our story
“Having grown up and lived in several different states and Canada, I have first‑hand experience of what's involved in moving to a new area: from my experience as a child, what was involved in that for my parents, and now with my own family.” — Scott Remmel, founder
Scott opened ExecNet in Denver in 2000, brought it to Charlotte in 2010, and in 2012 it became Stay Furnished Apartments — same homes, same clients, same guests, new name. Twenty-six years in corporate housing, sixteen of them here.
The people answering the phone have been at it nearly as long. Jennie Rudd, CCHP, has run sales and operations at Stay for 13 years — most quotes, move-ins and odd-hour guest calls land on her desk first, and in 2023 the industry noticed, handing her its Rock Star Award. The company has been recognized too: three Tower of Excellence awards for Most Creative Marketing from the Corporate Housing Providers Association, the first as ExecNet and the rest as Stay. Jason Chern joined Stay four years ago with 26 years in the Raleigh market behind him — he has been placing people in the Triangle since before most of its office parks existed.
Our mission is to make that time less stressful by providing a beautifully furnished apartment where your spirit can grow, and to be an ambassador to our city and state so you and your family don't miss a beat.
We place guests in professionally managed apartment communities chosen for one reason: corporate demand. High‑end communities within easy reach of major employers, shopping and restaurants, across North and South Carolina, with Charlotte as the market with the deepest bench.

- C · Customer satisfaction
- The best possible quality, service and value for every guest. Doing whatever is reasonable, and sometimes unreasonable, so each guest's needs are met every day.

- T · Teamwork
- We work together or we don't succeed. Relationships, clear communication and mutual respect: win/win for all.
- E · Excellence
- Performing every job in a superior way, finding better ways to get things done, and helping each person become the best they can be.
