- I just recently had a friend use Rent Pros to help find living quarters.
-
- His experiences with them were, in a word, awful. He had fairly specific
- guidelines for what he wanted to live in, and was directed to a number of
- places that supposedly fit them. Unfortunately, all were either exagerated
- or just wrong. Now, neither he nor I can say wether that is the fault of
- RP or the owners just giving bad info, but be very careful using them and
- expect to have to "push" them a bit to get any real info.
-
- Once, he called them on Monday morning only to find no new listings, and then
- found new listings in the Sunday paper he picked up later. This is probably
- a result of RP not being computerized. He saw them hand searching listings.
