Mavrx Sports Housing

What Mavrx Sports Housing does

MAVRX Sports Housing is a Phoenix, Arizona-based provider of fully furnished short-term residential housing for professional and collegiate athletes, founded in 2013 by Nicolette Hawthorne and operating as the flagship subsidiary of the privately held, WBENC-certified woman-owned P.R.O.S. Enterprises. The company serves MLB (including as the official preferred housing provider for Minor League Baseball), NFL, WNBA, NBA G-League, MLS, ECHL, IFL, USL, and individual Olympic athletes such as USA Volleyball's Chiaka Ogbogu, working through direct enterprise relationships with team management, player development executives, and league offices. The headquarters is located at 4745 N 7th Street, Suite #140, Phoenix, Arizona.

The core offering is quote-based short-term furnished housing with flexible lease terms, consolidated monthly billing, optional upgrades for furnishings and amenities, and concierge services (dog walking, laundry, meal delivery). This is supported by a proprietary client portal for program management and a 24/7 bilingual guest services team. Beyond core housing, the P.R.O.S. ecosystem includes P.R.O.S. Realty (full-service brokerage for buying, selling, renting, and investing), P.R.O.S. Property Services (ISSA- and CMI-certified maintenance and cleaning with an exclusive EcoLab sustainability partnership), and the Pitch Initiative, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit funded by a portion of each night's stay.

Revenue is generated through three streams: nightly/short-term rental rates for athlete housing, managed services contracts for property maintenance and cleaning, and transaction commissions through P.R.O.S. Realty. Go-to-market relies on direct enterprise field sales, league-level channel partnerships, an inside-sales website channel, and a self-serve client portal for existing accounts. Leadership is founder-led, with Hawthorne as CEO, Amber Ridenhour-Palmore as President and COO, and a business development bench staffed by former professional athletes including Anttaj Hawthorne (NFL/AFL), Ryan Cook (MLB), and Jessica Davila. The company has been recognized four times on the Inc. 5000 list of America's fastest-growing private companies (2018, 2020, 2023, 2025).

Emerging players

• Sonder: Tech-enabled operator of short-term furnished apartments in major U.S. and European cities, targeting both business travelers and leisure guests. Comparable to MAVRX in product category (furnished short-term stays) but with a broader, consumer-facing brand and heavier tech investment.
• Kasa Living: Tech-driven hospitality company offering professionally managed short-term furnished apartments in U.S. markets. Comparable to MAVRX in furnished short-term stay product but positioned more toward independent business and leisure travelers rather than sports-specific use cases.
• Vacasa: Large vacation rental management company offering professionally managed short-term rental inventory across the U.S. Comparable to MAVRX's asset-light furnished-housing model but with a leisure/vacation focus rather than sports-specific enterprise sales.
• Placemakr: Operator of apartment-style short-term and extended-stay accommodations in select U.S. cities, combining hotel-style service with apartment living. Comparable to MAVRX in furnished-lodging product but with a city-based, multifamily operator rather than sports enterprise focus.
• SabbaticalHomes: Marketplace for short-term furnished rentals targeted at academics and professionals in transition. Limited overlap with MAVRX but adjacent in the furnished-relocation use case for transient professional clients.

Direct peers

• Oakwood Worldwide: Global furnished apartment and serviced residence provider serving business travelers, relocating employees, and enterprise clients with luxury and premium short-term housing. Comparable to MAVRX in core furnished-lodging offering and enterprise sales motion.
• BridgeStreet Worldwide: Global corporate housing and serviced apartment operator serving enterprise clients, government, and relocating professionals with fully furnished short-term accommodations. Comparable to MAVRX in product type and B2B distribution, scaled differently.
• Furnished Quarters: One of the largest independently owned corporate housing providers in the U.S., offering fully furnished short-term apartments for business travelers, relocating employees, and project-based clients. Directly comparable to MAVRX's short-term furnished housing model, though without the sports-specific go-to-market.
• National Corporate Housing: National corporate housing provider offering fully furnished temporary housing for corporate clients and relocating professionals across major U.S. markets. Operates the same core business model as MAVRX (furnished short-term rentals, enterprise sales) and is a relevant comparison for service breadth and enterprise coverage.

Broad incumbents

• Airbnb Luxe: Airbnb's luxury tier for high-end vacation rentals and short-term stays, with global inventory and built-in athlete/celebrity appeal. Not a direct competitor in enterprise sports sales, but a meaningful alternative for individual athletes booking luxury short-term stays outside MAVRX's sports channel.
