Чем занимается RentHop

RentHop ( helps renters find great apartments. We use sophisticated data analysis to rank apartment listings based on their "freshness", their accuracy and completeness and the responsiveness of the manager who listed the apartment on our site. As a renter, you can use list-based or map-based search tools to browse listings and comprehensive search filters to narrow our 100,000+ listings to just the ones you want. It’s easy and fast to reach out to brokers and property managers to schedule viewings and to manage responses. You can also use our innovative "Appointments on Demand" feature, a map showing the real-time locations of brokers and property managers available to show apartments, to reach out and schedule viewings on the fly! For brokers and property managers, RentHop provides a cost-effective, easy-to-use tool to promote your listings, get qualified leads and schedule viewings. You can also post and repost listings on the go using RentHop Manager, our mobile app for brokers and property managers, currently available in the iOS App Store. (You can download the mobile app at Your commitment to give good service will make you stand out on RentHop - our algorithm will credit you for your responsiveness and help give your listings the boost they need to get seen - and rented - by qualified renters. Look for our mobile app for consumers, due out soon! And please let us know any questions, thoughts or comments you may have - we'll look forward to hearing from you! You can reach us at.

Часто задаваемые вопросы

Это реальная заявка RentHop в YC?

Нет. Y Combinator держит поданные заявки в приватности. Это реконструкция: реальные вопросы формы YC, ответы на которые основаны на публичных данных RentHop (заметки о запуске, бэкграунд фаундеров, описание продукта). Это показывает, как компания вроде RentHop представила бы себя YC, а не текст, который они подали.
