Check Out No-Fee Brooklyn Apartments With Oliver

    by

    When you’re hunting for a new apartment, there’s a lot to keep track of. So many apartments to see, phone calls to make, emails to send. If you’re in the market for a no-fee or owner-listed apartment, you find yourself trying to track down landlords who don’t answer their phones. And when they do answer, you find out that someone else has rented your dream apartment. Back to square one!

    Oliver hopes to change that. Oliver is an iOS app that lets you browse thousands of no-fee and owner-listed apartments and schedule showings at the tap of a button, no phone calls or emails required.

    Apartment listings on Oliver feed from the landlords themselves, so there are no broker fees, ever. The apartments are displayed on a map, so you can save time by planning out the best route to check out multiple properties. And it’s easy to narrow your search by using the filter option to choose your desired price range, layout, amenities and neighborhood, and even your target move-in date.

    Once you find an apartment you like, just tap, choose the showing time that works best for you, and Oliver will confirm with the landlord.

    Oliver also has a really cool feature that can save you a lot of time. The app recently added the ability to view an apartment directly from your phone. With Oliver’s “Live Video Showing” feature, you can view apartments in real time from your couch. Oliver will send a runner to the apartment who will broadcast the video directly to your phone.

    You have the ability to direct the tour, and ask any questions regarding the apartment. If you like what you see, you can go see it live — if not, the next apartment is a click away.
