CORT Business Services, a Berkshire Hathaway company and the nation’s leading provider of furniture rental and transition services, today announced the completion of its acquisition of Dwellworks Living, the temporary housing division of Dwellworks and a leading provider of temporary living solutions. Effective immediately, the business is operating as Dwellworks Living by CORT.

With the transaction complete, Dwellworks Living by CORT officially brings together Dwellworks Living’s trusted temporary living expertise with CORT’s scale, resources, global supplier relationships, and long-standing leadership in mobility-related services. The result is a stronger platform designed to deliver greater flexibility, broader capabilities, and expanded value for clients, guests, suppliers, and industry partners.

Clients and partners can expect continuity in the areas that have made Dwellworks Living successful. The experienced team remains in place, the service model remains intact, supplier relationships continue, and the business will continue to support clients through its proven technology, housing network, and commitment to responsive service.

“Dwellworks Living by CORT reflects the next step in our commitment to helping organizations and their employees feel at home wherever work takes them,” said Mike Davis, CEO and President of CORT Business Services. “Together, we are building a stronger growth platform, expanding opportunities for our partners, and delivering greater value to the clients we serve.”

As part of CORT, Dwellworks Living by CORT is positioned to expand its ability to serve increasingly complex mobility and business travel needs. The combined organization will offer clients access to broader resources, deeper market relationships, expanded global reach, and continued investment in service, technology, and customer experience. The completed acquisition also strengthens the connection between temporary living, housing, furnishings, and local market support.

“For decades, our temporary living clients and partners have helped generate demand for CORT’s furniture rental business,” Davis added. “Through Dwellworks Living by CORT, we now have the opportunity to return that value by creating demand and revenue growth opportunities for those who have long supported our success. We believe this will create a stronger, more connected ecosystem for everyone involved.”

James Conigliaro has joined CORT as Vice President of Dwellworks Living by CORT and will help lead the business into its next chapter.

“Dwellworks Living has built an exceptional business with outstanding people, strong client relationships, and a proven model for serving the temporary living market,” said Conigliaro. “CORT is uniquely positioned to support the continued growth of the business while preserving the values, expertise, and customer focus that have made Dwellworks Living successful.”

The transaction also marks a new chapter for Dwellworks. With the sale of Dwellworks Living complete, Dwellworks will increase its focus on core destination services capabilities and other relocation support services while maintaining a strategic relationship with Dwellworks Living by CORT.

Bob Rosing, who will again serve as CEO of Dwellworks, commented on the transaction, “The acquisition of our temporary living business presents the perfect opportunity for Dwellworks Living to be strengthened by the CORT organization. It also enables Dwellworks to increase focus on our core destination services capabilities. We look forward to continuing to create cooperative solutions for our clients with our friends at Dwellworks Living by CORT.”

The combined organization also benefits from synergies created within the CORT Global Network, an established network of trusted service partners spanning more than 90 countries, expanding our ability to support clients and partners with consistent, high-quality solutions and local expertise around the world.

“This acquisition underscores our confidence in the strong business Dwellworks Living has built and its continued growth potential,” said Davis. “Dwellworks Living is known for service excellence, trusted client relationships, and deep industry expertise. Together, we will build on that foundation, create new opportunities for growth, and continue delivering exceptional experiences for clients, guests, and supplier partners.”
