Just wanted to let you all know that after looking at all the options we went with a corporate apt that was completely furnished. If you can't commit to 90 days, then you have to pay sales tax on it.
The company we are going through, ACRS (
Apartment and Corporate Relocation Services) has been pretty responsive and very accommodating. Here's what they sent us:
"We could definitely assist you in the Charleston SC area. A two bedroom two bath fully furnished would be anywhere from $1660 to $1775 per month. That would include all furniture, all housewares, all utilities (electric, water, gas, cable, high speed internet) as well as the rent on the apartment. That would be around $55 to $60 a night!"
We have cats, and there was no additional charge for the pets. The only downside is that it's a third floor walk up apartment, but they said that if we could have committed to at least 90 days they could've gotten us a ground floor unit. I think that the one we are in is just permanently rented by ACRS as a temporary apartment. We have committed to 2 months, since that's what my husband's company will allow.
Good luck in your search!
