"When I was looking for a place to live, I ended up driving up to Chicago, six weekends in a row to look at properties looked at over 40 different properties in person. And it was a pretty painful process because at least half of those I walked in, instantly turned around and walked out. I knew within seconds I wasn't gonna be living there." – Matt Weirich
Looking for a place to live is never an easy process.
You search for a place and the building, amenities, and unit images look great online. . So you get in the car, drive there, walk in the door, and immediately know that it's not for you. So, you hop back in the car to start the search over again. Wasted time. There has to be a better way to look for a place to rent online, right?
