Swipe your way home. Hizzy makes apartment hunting fast, simple, and actually fun. Swipe through rentals across New York City and Hoboken: right on the places you love, left on the ones you don’t. When you match, the full details unlock and you can message the lister right in the app. HOW IT WORKS • Set your search: neighborhoods, budget, bedrooms, move-in date, and must-have amenities. • Swipe: big photos, the price, and the essentials at a glance. • Match: see the full listing, with every photo, the exact address and map, and who’s listing it. • Message: chat with the lister directly, send photos, and get notified when they reply. PRIVACY BUILT IN Exact addresses stay hidden until you match, so a place’s location is only shared with interested renters. HAVE A PLACE TO RENT? Anyone can list: owners, tenants subleasing, or real estate pros. Switch to lister mode in Settings, post your place in minutes with photos, video and a floor plan, then chat with renters who matched. Switch back anytime; nothing is lost. Hizzy connects renters and listers. Any rental terms are strictly between you and the lister.
