The Rise of \u201cWork from Anywhere\u201d Culture <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Advancements in personal technology and digital connectivity enable us to stay connected no matter where we are. The pandemic lockdowns provided a global opportunity for people and organizations to embrace work-from-anywhere<\/a> culture and work-from-home models. <\/p>\n\n\n\n As a result, many people discovered that they do not necessarily need to work with their colleagues in offices to be productive. Through collaborative platforms, social platforms, and strong internet connections, businesses, colleagues, students, and families remained connected despite not traveling to meet physically. <\/p>\n\n\n\n June takes a global approach to work – literally.

While more people embrace WFH and WFA, fewer people want or need to live in the exact location for more than 12 months. For example, the average digital nomad or WFA spouse with a military<\/a> partner needs a flexible lease that enables them to live in a place for less than 12 months and extend their lease if necessary. <\/p>\n\n\n\n WFA culture also supports the rising gig economy<\/a> and online freelancing, where individuals work on short-term contracts from home as independent contractors. Proof of income for such individuals may vary since there isn’t a consistent salary at the end of the month. This is often a requirement for more traditional, long-term lease agreements. <\/p>\n\n\n\n With remote work here to stay, investors and landlords can reap massive profits<\/a> by providing quality housing with flexible short-term leases. Turnkey apartments without long-term commitments are appealing, affordable, and easier for the modern WFA renter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n No-strings-attached housing reduces high broker fees charged on long-term leases. For example, the average broker fee<\/a> in New York is 10 to 15% of the annual lease amount. Before a renter can access an apartment, they must pay a broker fee on top of the security deposit, first month’s rent, and other moving expenses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The renter pays the broker fee regardless of whether the broker helped them find the housing unit and sign the lease. This fee is a barrier to affordable housing for renters. The result is vacant spaces, lower income, and zero profits for landlords and investors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n June<\/a> partners with landlords and connects them with tenants looking for short-term leases. According to Founder and CEO Daniel Mishin, the average length of leases pre-pandemic was nine months. That number has since dropped to five months<\/a>. Many renters are looking for short-term leases, and June helps landlords find them. Here are some of the other benefits of working with June as a property owner<\/a>: <\/p>\n\n\n\n June performs quick upgrades to properties at no out-of-pocket costs to owners. All houses get new paint, a contemporary design, and furnishing per the tenant’s wishes. Short-term renters also do not tend to make massive adjustments to homes. Most houses are usually pristine by the time the short-term renter leaves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n June’s professional real-estate team renovates and markets mom-and-pop properties, helping them compete with larger investment and real estate firms with more resources. June also offers a platform where landlords can track how their property performs, rent collections, and other tenant information. <\/p>\n\n\n\n June takes responsibilities off the landlords’ hands, such as rent collection, accounting for the property, and property maintenance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"A](\"https:\/\/junehomes.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/collov-home-design-UUsQk_9bdR8-unsplash.jpg\")
