About Us

Providing Comfortable & Stylish Stays for Professionals and Families in Grand Rapids.

Redefining Urban
Stays in Grand Rapids

Welcome to our rental community — where comfort, care, and local charm come together.

I’m Christian Wiser, a longtime resident of Grand Rapids, proud husband, father of four, and founder of Benton Development, LLC. What began as our family’s passion project has grown into a network of well-maintained, thoughtfully furnished rental homes across several great locations.

Our journey started with a lovely apartment in Heritage Hill — a neighborhood we fell in love with and still cherish. With every property we’ve added, our goal has remained the same: to provide a high-quality living experience that feels like home, whether you’re staying for a month or more.

We are not a corporate rental company. Our approach is personal, hands-on, and rooted in our values as a family. We understand the importance of feeling safe, settled, and supported — and that’s exactly what we strive to offer each guest.

Aside from real estate, I’m also a dedicated sports coach who’s led over 25 youth teams. Lacrosse is a big part of our family life — I played growing up in Kansas City, and now all of our kids do too. That same team spirit, attention to detail, and commitment to people is what drives our work in the rental space.

We launched our rental business in 2023, and while we continue to grow, we’re proud to stay grounded in our mission:

To offer warm, reliable, and family-friendly rental homes where people feel truly at ease.

Thanks for considering us — we’d be honored to host you.

Mission Statement

Our mission is to provide thoughtfully designed, family-friendly rental homes that offer more than just a place to stay—each one is a space to relax, recharge, and feel at home.

We strive to deliver memorable stays by focusing on the details that matter most: cleanliness, comfort, local charm, and genuine care for every guest we welcome.

What Sets Us Apart

At Grand Rapids Urban Rentals we believe that comfort, privacy, and a personal touch create the best stays.

Here’s what makes our rental experience different:

  • Family-Owned, Guest-Focused: We’re a hands-on, family-run business—not a faceless corporation. Each property is thoughtfully managed with care, comfort, and hospitality in mind.
  • Rooted in the Community: As long-time Grand Rapids residents, we know and love this area. We take pride in offering guests an authentic local experience, with personalized tips and neighborhood charm.
  • Designed for Real Living: Our rentals are more than just places to sleep. They’re fully equipped, beautifully maintained spaces made for relaxing, working, or making memories—whether you’re staying a week or a few months.
  • Attention to Detail: From spotless cleaning to fast communication, we prioritize the little things that make a big difference in your stay.
  • Small-Scale, Big Comfort: We welcome no more than 4 guests at a time, ensuring each stay remains quiet, comfortable, and thoughtfully cared for.
