San Francisco-based HomeSuite, a leading technology player in the rental industry, has announced a first-of-its-kind service where renting a fully-furnished, 0-3 bedroom home or apartment, is now as easy as booking a hotel.

While on-demand, online services have radically changed transportation, air travel and peer-to-peer apartment sharing, the real estate industry has yet to adapt. HomeSuite, the only long-term rental service that personally vets each prospective tenant, landlord and property, is revolutionizing the way both renters and landlords can access the market with each being fully protected.

Tenants can now book an apartment with nothing more than a click without needing to interface with landlords or sales representatives. There are no walk-throughs, no hidden fees, units are confirmed to be available and guaranteed to match the description provided online. Landlords who choose to rent their units through the “Book Now” feature don’t need to do anything other than receive their rental fees each month, a far cry from the standard process which is both time consuming and costly.

“We’ve looked forward to offering and perfecting this function since we first launched in January of 2015,” said HomeSuite founder and CEO David Adams. “The ease of use mirrors booking a hotel online with both the tenant and landlord guaranteed satisfaction. It’s the proverbial “win-win” and we’re confident this solution will resonate throughout the real estate rental industry.”

HomeSuite, with tens of thousands of fully furnished homes and apartments in their network which currently includes New York City, San Francisco and the Bay Area, Los Angeles, Chicago, Washington D.C., Seattle and Boston, has purposefully stayed away from the short term rental model which has been coming under fire via lawsuits and cities scrambling to legislate the industry.

“Our goal was to provide the best solution for not only renters and landlords but for the cities in which we operate,” said Adams. “We’re also sympathetic to local residents facing increased rates and less rental opportunities. We’re not taking inventory off the market like short term rental services. We’re in place to serve locals, those seeking to ‘taste’ a city before moving, professionals in need of furnished housing and anyone looking to experience new cities, particularly those who work remotely.”
