New Apartment Review and Social Networking Website

Online, November 28, 2010 (Newswire.com) - The newest user review and social networking website went live late October 2010. Their platform is based on past or present negative experiences that tenants have had renting apartments, student housing, rental homes, vacation rentals and more. This is the first website on of its kind focusing only on negative apartment reviews in order to help prospective tenants from renting an apartment with issues or having to deal with problematic landlords.

It happens all too often, an interested party walks through a beautifully furnished model unit with a real estate agent or leasing agent and decides to sign a lease because everything looks perfect. It is very obvious that the real estate agent or leasing agent is not going to mention that they receive numerous noise complaints from the adjacent tenants or that they have an electrical problem in that unit which they cannot afford to fix. Donotrent.com was created to make sure that prospective tenants are aware of possible issues with the building, neighbors, landlords or property managers so that they do not have to live a nightmare like the tenant before them. The goal is to make sure that building owners, property managers and leasing agents are held accountable.

The site is based on a similar platform as Yelp with the same features. The main difference is that its niche is apartment reviews and not reviews of every single business in the world. I believe that it will only be a matter of time before other review sites pop up focusing on other niche markets since quality on a specific topic or interest will always trump quantity and it is a lot easier for users to navigate and socialize.
