Belong 4+

Belong has made it really convenient to rent a home. The app makes it even easier to do repairs- I love being able to request repairs from my phone.

Disclaimer: This review is about BELONG, not the app. My experience with Belong has honestly been a letdown. They skipped mentioning some important safety stuff about the area, like a transition house for inmates nearby – news to me! In the first month, our car disappeared, and over the next five months, my windows took a beating five times, plus my license plate went missing twice. Basic stuff? Yeah, that's where Belong struggled, taking three months to hand over my mailbox key and five months to sort out bill payments. Talking to them was like pulling teeth – emails went unanswered for ages. And get this: our neighbor, who shared the backyard, turned out to be a registered child molester! Belong conveniently forgot to mention that, and even the landlord didn't know when we finally met on our way out. Belong's lack of transparency and lousy communication seriously messed with our peace of mind during our stay.

I made an account with Sign in With Apple on their website. Their app has never worked when trying to sign in though, I reported it as a bug with zero traction.

Not related to app functionality but Belong is generally a very poorly run company. I applied for an apartment in Washington state through them where we have a first qualified applicant rule. The site said I was “first in line” only for me to get completely ghosted, never offered a tour despite continually submitting time, and then when I called support for help they said they had offered it to somewhere else. So essentially what happened is that I had $50 stollen from me via the application fee while Belong broke our local rental laws.
