Apartment List 4+

Amazing app!

I absolutely love this app! I am currently just looking for the future so I have not been reaching out on this app, but the way you can choose the filters is amazing!! There’s three main ones that you can mess around with; location (you can enter your commute), amenities, and price. I love how it gives you perfect matches as well as options like best location but flexible on price and amenities or firm price but flexible on amenities and location. I only wish there were slightly more filters and a deeper pet section. I think a section 8 filter or low income filter would be helpful, more parking options (like covered, garage, assigned, etc.), and extra storage filter as well. For the pet section, I feel as though being able to choose basic info about your pet to filter would be helpful as many apartments will not allow certain breeds or weight limits, especially for dogs. Even without these things, this app is absolutely amazing, the tinder of apartments. I will definitely be using this to find my next apartment.

Freezes when you try to search in more than one city

I’m fresh out of college and I was hoping to use this app to search for potential apartments in various cities as I get interviews and job offers from companies in those areas. I enjoyed the app for the most part when looking at the first area and have found some great potential apartment complexes, however as soon as I got a job interview in a different city and went to add an additional location in the app to start browsing, suddenly the app doesn’t load, limiting me to only one city. I’m hoping I can just use the website to browse on my computer, but it is disappointing to be unable to browse apartments in multiple different cities on the go. I have had a few other issues that aren’t as severe but are mildly inconvenient. For instance, I am specifically looking for an apartment for just myself, either a studio or a one bedroom. Even though I had these selected in my search parameters, the app would consistently show me two bedroom apartments and even two bedroom houses. I wish it would stick to the constraints I set, and wish there was an option to not see listings for houses. I also had to block emails from this app in my inbox as they were extremely frequent but wouldn’t stop otherwise. With some improvements this app could be incredible!

Okay

This app is very helpful in finding apartments within your price range with specific amenities in the area that you’re interested in. I like the tinder style way of swiping through apartments to be able to really view each apartment match. I find the filters to be helpful, but wish that you could sort your shortlist by amenities, size, etc. I also wish that it would show reviews for the complexes because I’m finding the process of elimination on my short list to be based off reviews. The reason for me giving it 3 stars is because EVERY SINGLE TIME you view a saved apartment it automatically reaches out to the leasing department by giving them your phone number and email. I am being spammed with emails and phone calls from simply reviewing my shortlist to sort through which apartments I’d like to actually tour based on reviews. I have some apartments that have been automatically moved to my visiting list when I haven’t even reached out to set up an appointment. If this can be fixed it would be a great way to shop around.
Update: app has been constantly crashing after consistently using it. It’s logged me out and won’t allow me to log back in.
