Great app
Would be cool if you had a note section for each saved location
Message feature doesn’t function in the app. Messages do not appear.
I have the filter set to allow dogs. Why does app this still show properties that don’t allow dogs?!
I’m looking for a place and use HP every day. So far, so good!
I call places or buildings and nobody ever picks up even if I leave a voicemail I’m never receiving a call back
HotPads is far a far better app and platform over the alternatives and has better filtration features, by far. The ONLY reason to use the evil top platform is because so many places do applications and messaging through it. All three main competitors’ apps are absolute unstable trash. Hell, I’d work for HotPads - with the right new features, they deserve to be the go-to housing platform.

Lists new units but complex has been around for years. Prices are always inaccurate. Seems they removed a lot of the direct websites. Little to know additional information is really on there just a bunch of pictures.
Great app, but it won’t show messages on the app from landlords you’ve contacted.
I'm looking for a house to rent. This app is Easy to use,has great filters,the Landlord or realtors really do contact you back with any questions you might have!!! I TRULY LOVE ❤️ IT... i'm moving to Nevada and I get alerts when a house is up for viewing. Get this app ...it will not let you down!!!! Toni🐸

That you can when the price for a rental is reduced.
The split screen sucks
Stop sending me the same properties. Stop sending me houses. You are wasting my time!
I like the way this New Rental Home/Apt Search App look & the way the App provides your requested A
Best rental app there is!!!
Usually the app if fine but just recently all these places are up, all same price and all don’t show photos or anything. Like a glitch or something. I signed out and signed back in and even deleted and reinstalled but still the same. Hope they fix this.
Images not available on new listings anymore
I’ve been using this app to find places which has been helpful but every time I try to access my inbox in the app I keep getting an error message.
Just downloaded the app like an hr ago and the messages aren’t able to open I had my bf download it to see if it was my phone and it’s the app itself, it’s pretty useless if you can’t see the messages
I’ve applied to two listings. First of all, I had to pay for an application and it feels like they just took my money and ran. I reached out for a follow up with no response — it looks like the listing has not been rented out, and the link the app shares with me regarding this listing reads “error”. I would not recommend HotPads, I’m better off just driving around looking for “For Rent” signs!
