Heya!

Is anyone interested in joining together to get a coworking condo for SXSW? Perhaps something like this is already in process?

I'd love to organize if anyone else is interested?

Hey,

I might be interested in the coworking condo idea! Also, I'm down to help anyway I can :)

Cheers,

Hey everyone,

As much as I like emailing back and forth, I was curious if anyone has put together a Twitter list with everyone who is active in this group...or if there is any interest in it? I think for some topics, it would be a bit more efficient and personal.

It's been done a buncha times, by different people, and it's rarely maintained well or at all.

This is updated somewhat frequently, though:

Iris... AirBNB.com might be a good tool for locating a suitable condo

Wow! Nice website! =)

Have you ever heard about CouchSurfing? Could be a good option as well.

For what it's worth --

Homeaway.com is based in Austin and manages several properties that
you can lease short-term.

Another option is to look at austin.craigslist.org - many people
simply lease out their houses for SXSW and take a vacation.

Hope that helps -- CS

I'm connected with a bunch of the vacation rental people here in Austin who have a private email list. I can query them about available properties, if you'd like.

Thanks to everyone and your great ideas!

A question: If you are going to SXSW, and you are interested in getting a condo/house with a bunch of coworking peeps what days do you anticipate needing accomodations for?

Not yet, So far it looks like we have 6 people. Depending on the location and price I might have 3 more who are interested.

I've had one response on my inquiry to the vacation rental group, a friend of mine who has three properties available:

Hancock Modern (2 kings, 2 queens, 2 singles, 2 baths, 1 kitchen, 1 laundry)


Hancock Guest Cottage + separate Guest Nest + separate Loft Hideaway (same location)
(5 queens, 4 baths, 3 kitchens, 3 laundries)





Hancock Ranch House + separate Petite Suite (1 king, 3 queens, 2 baths, 2 kitchens, 1 laundry)


Hancock Petite Suite


Haven't heard from any of the others yet.  We'd heard that a lot of the properties are booked pretty early for SXSW.

best,
Jon
