November 2, 2011: "Furnished with Finesse is a God send! I was sent to Nashville from Detroit to oversee what was supposed to be a 3 month assignment that turned into six months. Saundra and her team did everything in their power to ensure that I had an "at home" experience. From the decorations to the amenities, they made being away from home and family a bit easier. I especially loved the professionalism and accessibility of Saundra. There was never a time that I called her that she didn't answer or get back with me immediately. She was always willing to help even when I had to stay longer than my agreed contract. Not only that, with corporate economics in a whirlwind she did all she could to ensure that I could receive the most economical price for my wonderful unit. You can't beat service like this and I'm glad I experienced!"

Furnished with Finesse exceeded my expectations in moving back to Nashville. I worked directly with Saundra by telephone. She listened carefully and delivered an ideal condo. When my wife and I bought our home we continued using Furnished with Finesse to coordinate my physical move and furniture placement in our new home. It was a relief to have these services available. Within several days we walked into a furnished home including artwork. We were settled in less than a week. Thanks were to Saundra and her team.
Sincerely,

Aug 2011: To Saundra and the FwF team in Nashville - I'm writing to highly recommend you and the FwF team to provide excellent housing for those who might find themselves in need of such. On a personal note, I thank you for providing everything my wife and I needed during our recent medical stay in Nashville. You offered us more than we could expect as far as a place that felt like our own furnished home. When we learned that my wife's cancer and resultant stem cell transplant would require months of treatment at Vanderbilt, we were stunned and had no idea what to do about housing, etc. We considered the options at Vanderbilt as well as other private housing. We compared price and value and convenience and were won over by the quality of the properties FwF offered and we were blown away by the service of the FwF team. Competitive pricing made it an easy decision. Your service to us was outstanding, something you don't expect in a housing lease. Specific adaptations were made for my wife's unique physical needs. When the rare technical problem was encountered Saundra addressed it, even after hours on the weekend. Upon our second and third round of cancer treatments we again compared prices, knowing our preference was to stay with FwF. Once again Saundra provided a superior furnished property for us at a reasonable price. Thank you Saundra and team for your service to us when we needed it most. At first glance, I was overwhelmed by the cost of renting short-term furnished housing. When comparing the cost of furnishing a temporary residence in the needed location, FwF was clearly the best choice. I'm a bargain hunter so I didn't jump at the cheapest nor the most luxurious. In the end, we think we found luxury, convenience, comfort, and care at a bargain price.

November 1, 2011: Hi Saundra, Thanks for arranging the short-term lease for us. We enjoyed it very much. It was quiet, surprisingly bright (with afternoon sun coming around). I liked the park close by , although my son isn't much into walks. He preferred the TV. Honestly, he did NOT want to return back to Knoxville! Your IT person was very accommodating when we had trouble with the TV on the first day. Thanks for everything!

May, 2011: Sandra provided us with a temporary place to stay during our transition period. She and her staff were always available and anxious to help in any way. Thank you for our home away from home.
Grace Sposato
April, 2011: We, recently, had the experience of needing temporary housing due to a water pipe disaster in our home. Saundra and the entire Furnished With Finesse staff coordinated with us, listening to our specific needs, and found us a place very quickly. Every step of the process, down to the smallest details, were handled efficiently, promptly, and very professionally. Whatever service or amenity we requested was provided to us. While being displaced from your home is never pleasant, Furnished With Finesse made the process easier than I thought it would be. We would, certainly, recommend FWF to anyone in need of temporary housing services.

"My family’s relocation from Sydney, Australia to Nashville, TN was made much easier thanks to the efforts of Saundra. After carefully assessing our needs, she was quickly able to identify a number of suitable interim housing alternatives. Saundra, together with her colleagues at Furnished with Finesse, always provided courteous, efficient and expeditious service and I would not hesitate recommending her to others relocating to the area."

I had to make a sudden move to Nashville from Northern Virginia. Saundra and her team helped me find a furnished rental for the first few months so that I could move almost immediately. I had no time to visit, so all our contact was via email and phone. I arrived late on a snowy December day to find everything ready and waiting for me. The place perfectly fit my needs. I recommend Furnished with Finesse without hesitation.

I moved to Nashville from my home in San Antonio, Texas in July of 2007 and was greeted warmly by Saundra and her team. I came to Tennessee with little more than a car and my clothing. EVERYTHING else I needed was provided by ‘Furnished with Finesse’. The transition was smooth and simple and I walked into a fully functional apartment with all the amenities I could ever need or want without lifting a finger. Saundra and her team were attentive and flexible. My search for permanent residence took a great deal longer than I had anticipated, but Saundra and her team allowed me all the time I needed to find the right place. I would recommend ‘Furnished with Finesse’ to anyone looking for a professionally-operated organization that sincerely cares for the well-being of their clients.

“Saundra is an extra-miler....an exceptional person who brings a "whatever it takes" approach to everything she undertakes. She's amazing! I've been in the real estate services business for over 30 years and I have not worked with anyone for whom I have any more respect as a person, as a professional, for her work ethic and the way she cares for her tenants. And, I trust her. JJ” January 13, 2010

Jerry Jennings
“I worked with Saundra to arrange for temporary housing when my wife, our 2 month old and I, when we relocated from Chicago to Nashville. She is an excellent listener. She carefully listened to my needs and provided a custom solution that met my needs down to the last detail of whether our daughter's crib should be lined or not! She is a joy to work with can be fully trusted to find what you need. She provides a unique value proposition, in not just providing a short term home, but having it custom decorated to meet your needs. Since then one of the hires in our company has used her and he too was very pleased. I strongly recommend her and would gladly use her services again.” January 16, 2010

Hemant Dandekar
“Saundra has been placing her corporate homes on my communities for several years. She is extremely detail oriented and has the ability to think ahead to avoid customer confusion and frustration. Because Saundra used to work on-site, she is acutely aware of what has to happen on our end in the leasing office in regards to the administrative tasks, therefore Saundra is pro-active in making sure that our needs are met while enabling her to exceed her clients expectations. She takes great care of her apartment homes and we have never had a complaint from any of her residents. She efficiently stays one step ahead of her clients needs at all times.
I truly enjoy doing business with Saundra and look forward to a long relationship with Furnished With Finesse.”

Stacy L. Garcia, CAM
We want to thank you for the great accommodations and we have really enjoyed our proximity to the downtown area and the airport. We have been in and out of town alot. The Hamptons have been quiet and the neighbors friendly. Love the gym and we have enjoyed walks in the neighborhood. By far this has been our best 'temporary stay' ever. July 2008
Tom and Diane Dondelinger
June 2008: Saundra, Thanks for furnishing our apt. in such a lovely way with so little time. All is happening very quickly now after waiting for a month to get things started. I am so thankful that we have such a nice place to hang our hat until all of this demolition and reconstruction takes place. It was nice to walk into # 718 this afternoon and hear our 32" LCD TV welcoming us. Thanks for everything!

“Saundra provided housing for me several years ago and I was very pleased with the entire experience. The property was outstanding and she handled all of my calls and questions quickly.
