 AvenueWest is disrupting the real estate industry by transforming mundane rental properties into high-earning investment opportunities.   AvenueWest's vision is to transform the corporate travel culture by providing bespoke travel experiences. Our primary mission is to deliver highly personalized travel destinations and real estate services to companies to help retain and attract top talent.  

The global travel industry is expected to climb to a staggering $1.7 trillion by 2022. An integral contributing factor to this growth is the estimated 1.3 million business trips that occur each day in the U.S. alone. According to the Highland Group-a premier hotel consulting firm-revenue in the corporate housing market rose 13% in 2017, reaching  $3.62 billion for its fifth strong consecutive year of growth. Experts agree that one of the fundamental reasons behind these astronomical numbers continue to be that corporate America-despite all of the tech-savvy advances that strive to keep us virtually connected-still holds in-person meetings as one of the most effective approaches to closing deals.  As a consequence of this insatiable desire by corporate America to have boots on the ground, the amount of time spent away from home continues to be viewed as one of the most challenging aspects for any business traveler. 

Corporate travel, if it's not properly managed and well supported, would undoubtedly take a severe toll on any company's most valuable resource, people. With a poor corporate travel culture, many business travelers would feel alienated and frustrated; and eventually, many of these companies stand to lose some of their most valuable team members. 

With the rapid expansion of the sharing economy, as seen with the rise of Airbnb now at a 30 billion valuation, it is resoundingly evident that business and leisure travelers alike are now, more than ever, demanding more comfortable lodging, personalized experiences, and instant gratification. Nonetheless, there remain considerable gaps in this current market. As the consensus, especially among Airbnb consumers, is that many providers lack the consistency, the safety of guests is flagrantly ignored, and the services, if offered, remain largely at sub-par levels.
