Great app! Easy touring!
I thoroughly enjoyed my experience with the block.a app. My roommates and I have been scheduling tours, and we have often had to schedule several in one day due to our busy schedules. This app allowed us to tour these apartments on our own time and not worry about making an appointment. Additionally, we were able to spend as long as we wanted in the apartment taking measurements, discussing what we liked about it, and determining if it was the right fit for us.
The only downside is not being able to ask questions to a leasing agent while you’re in the apartment, but our agent was very helpful when we emailed them a list of questions after the fact.Show lessIncredible, Refreshing Apartment Rental Experience
I’ve been living in NYC for a decade. Having dealt with a range of real estate folks across several different apartments, I can confidently say MAPT Residential are one of the most professional, diligent, trustworthy organizations you’ll find. This app was so easy to use, from submitting an application early, to a self-guided tour of my new place. There’s a lot of garbage out there. Do yourself a favor and use this instead!Show lessAwful and weird experience
I did two tours for apartments through this app. One was scheduled with a tenant and the other was a self guided tour. Seemed like a really cool idea but both went very badly.
First apartment, the tenants who were supposed to show me the unit didn’t answer their door and I had no way to contact them directly or even know who they were. The number for the real estate agent went to voicemail and their customer service gave me a very vague apology with no solution, so I left even though I made the trip all the way there for a scheduled viewing.
To be honest with my feelings, the self guided tour was a little sketchy, as a single woman just entering a random apartment building at night. The instructions for getting into the building were very poorly written and it took me a long time to get inside and find which apartment it was. I don’t really like this experience because you can’t ask questions to a real estate agent as you’re touring it on your own. Landlords and agencies are getting really lazy these days using this app to fill their apartments. It was a massive waste of time so I don’t think I’ll be using this app again.Show less
