New Company Website www.January20.us to Help Inaugural Visitors Find Short-Term Lodging:

Chantilly, VA – As we approach the inauguration and a most historic event, Long & Foster Real Estate, Inc., the largest privately owned real estate company in the metropolitan area as well as in America, is offering the firm’s leasing services expertise, the knowledge and scrutiny of its sales associates, and a new special website, as a service to the visiting public during the inaugural.

Selina James, Vice President of Property Management and Leasing Services for Long & Foster Real Estate says, “we are seeing a tremendous market demand for short-term housing during the week of the inaugural. We have the resources to help. Long & Foster has developed a new comprehensive website www.January20.us to show properties available for lease and to help bring some organization and professionalism to the incredibly large demand for short term housing in our nation’s Capital during the inaugural.” She went on to add, “Just one benefit of our site is that it even tells the public how far the property is from the Inaugural site.”

Long & Foster and its local affiliate, W.C.& A.N. Miller, wants to help the thousands of visitors coming to Washington for the inaugural find appropriate lodging for the week. The firm’s sales associates will serve as the listing agent for these short-term rental listings. Long & Foster’s Leasing Services Division has strong lease agreements in place which will enable both parties to venture into a short term lease transaction and with the trust and confidence that the transaction is being supported by professional advisors affiliated with a firm with a respected and trusted reputation.

Long & Foster agents are asking their homeowner/clients, if they own a property in the Washington, D.C. area or within a reasonable commuting distance to the nation’s capital, if they would like to offer the property as a short term rental during this upcoming historic event. Long & Foster is able to offer a specialized listing agreement, a specially-designed lodging agreement, promotional material, and a check list of items and pitfalls homeowners need to be aware of. “As far as we know, there is no other real estate firm in the Washington area doing anything as comprehensive as we are to develop a program for owners, guests, and with an agent in the middle to provide confidence in this otherwise chaotic “For Rent by Owner” atmosphere,” Selina James added.
