After taxes, housing represents the biggest expense for any international assignment. Having current data is critical for managing housing budgets when local rental markets can experience rapid price fluctuations. Mercer Real-Time RentCheck® helps you manage your budget against the ups and downs of the market by providing the latest housing information exactly when you need it. So you spend less time validating data, checking property availability, and negotiating with assignees.
Mercer Real-Time RentCheck® At-a-Glance
Fast
Provides on-demand housing information for a given location within 48 hours* of your request.
Current

Tailored

Useful
Assists with every aspect of the housing process: pre-assignment housing searches, establishing final housing budgets, lease re-negotiations, and more.
Immediate ROI
Can pay for itself by reducing the number of assignee home-finding trips, and exception requests for more expensive housing.
