The apartment searching process used to be drawn out, expensive, and tedious. You may have spent your time driving around a desirable neighborhood looking for “for rent” signs, checking for ads in the local paper, making a ton of phone calls, and then finally touring an apartment that you may or may not have liked. Thankfully, technology has streamlined every aspect of the rental process. Let’s take a look at how things have changed and how you can take advantage.
Today we can download apps on our smart devices to find exactly what we’re looking for at the touch of a button. These apps are fully customizable and easy to use. Let’s take a look at some of the best.
Trulia is one of the first apps to show up on the market. It allows for many customizable searches and provides information about crime rates, school zones and districts, commutes, and more. It also allows for fast communication and rental applications with landlords.
This app has information on almost half-a-million properties, and more are being added every day. Zillow makes it easy to customize your search to look for pet-friendly apartments by the number of rooms, location, garage parking, price, and so much more.
Aside from the wide array of filtering options, similar to Trulia and Zillow, Apartments.com shines through its ability to search for specific housing options like military or student homes. It also updates in real-time, saving your precious time by passing over apartments that have already been rented. Without Apartments.com, you could find your dream apartment only to realize it’s not on the market.
What if I told you that you could check out every inch of an apartment without even leaving your home? Apps like Apartments.com and other rental websites allow you to take a 3-D tour of your apartment straight from your computer or smart device.
This incredibly convenient technology is especially useful for out-of-town renters looking for a new place. If you’re going to school halfway across the country, you probably don’t want to spend time driving back and forth, looking for a place to rent. With 3-D tours, you can find your favorite apartment well before school even starts.
The days of wasting money, paper, and time on mailing out a check to your landlord are long over. Easy payment apps like RentPayment allow you to send your payment at the touch of a button. The app will enable you to send payments with a credit card, debit card, eCheck, or even cash. Paying rent has never been easier.
