Home Sweet Residology: Temporary Housing in McAllen, Texas

South Texas’s Rio Grande Valley has been undergoing a major transformation from a rural, agricultural area to a major center of international commerce. With that growth comes an influx of corporate travelers, tourists and relocating families who once found themselves at the mercy of the area’s burgeoning hospitality industry. Rescuing the temporarily displaced of the up-and-coming Rio Grande Valley from overpriced, impersonal hotel rooms and expensive, unhealthy restaurant fare is  Residology, Inc., a temporary housing provider offering fully furnished apartments in McAllen TX and the surrounding area.

Residology President Siena Wimberly is a former engineer with a serious passion for sustainable design and living practices. Her company tailors its residential living solutions to meet the needs of each client, and prides itself on offering 100% certified organic linens, eco-friendly “starter packs” and renewable energy, where available. An avid traveler herself, Wimberly knows what it’s like to miss the comforts of home. Her company’s goal is to provide “a positive, stress-free stay for professionals visiting our area—a home away from home.” Residology apartments are not just fully furnished, they’re stylishly accessorized, too; art, placemats and silk plants create a truly homelike feel. As Residology notes in a recent blog post, visitors to the area need only bring “clothes and a toothbrush!”

One of the greatest benefits of choosing a Residology apartment over a hotel room is Residology’s fully equipped kitchens. Far beyond just a cooktop and fridge, a Residology kitchen offers everything travelers need to prepare truly home-cooked meals. Measuring devices, cheese graters, cork screws and garlic presses are just a few of the special touches visitors can expect to find in their neatly appointed kitchens alongside cookware sets, glassware and cutlery.

Residology’s fully furnished apartments in McAllen TX and throughout the Rio Grande Valley include basic cable and high-speed Internet access. Most locations also offer on-site laundry facilities, swimming pools, fitness centers and even barbequing areas. Many units even welcome pets. Local Residology staff members can point clients in the direction of McAllen-area shopping, recreation and dining options that best suit them to make their stays hassle-free and fun. Residology welcomes special requests as well, such as fax machines, international phone service or even PlayStation 3s.

Perhaps the most obvious benefit to visitors who take advantage of the unique service Residology offers is cost savings. Multi-room apartments can comfortably house several business travelers or an entire family, eliminating the need to rent multiple hotel rooms. Kitchens and on-site laundry and recreation facilities help cut costs as well. Advice from local staff members makes visitors privy to the best places to save money on groceries and other necessities as well.

“Temporary” can mean anything from just a few weeks to months on end when it comes to housing needs. Residology helps clients find a lease that works for them. With just a 30-day minimum commitment, Residology gives area visitors a great deal of flexibility. The company offers both month-to-month and long-term leasing options in McAllen and its environs, making it easy for clients to customize their rental plans.

As the Rio Grande Valley continues to develop and experience an inflow of business travelers, relocating families and government/border protection employees, Residology will be there to meet the accompanying demand for temporary housing, upholding the company’s vision “to provide cost-effective, eco-friendly, custom temporary housing solutions for professionals and families on the move.”
