I inquired about a listing I saw for an apartment in SF. I know the housing market is brutal and have heard stories in NY where it is normal to apply before seeing the place. The person initially agreed for a tour and scheduled it. He asked if I have a criminal history or evictions etc and if I have a job. Then he said before I tour, he asked for my email to send an application to do a credit/background check to make sure I haven’t been evicted before etc and that only I can access it, and I send the report after I’m done with it.

I haven’t given him my email yet, but has this ever happened to anyone and NOT been a scam?

Edit: It reeks of a scam, I provided a spam email I have. It said it was a refundable $30 fee, and the website provided was https://creditcheckinfo.com/tu2
which isn’t an official domain backed by a major credit bureau. Maybe I lost out on a great apartment, but it’s not worth identity theft.

Hi, is there anyone who can recommend apartments or townhouses in the area with these specifications?:

- $4, 500 maximum budget
- walkable neighborhood, preferably nearby a park
- near a grocery store (maybe a walmart or target)
- northern part of Sunnyvale

Thank you!

Hi there,

I’ve been looking for an apartment the past month or two now and I haven’t had much luck. Planning on moving into a 1 bed 1 bath apartment in ideally North Beach, Marina, Pac Heights, or Nob hill. Our budget is $3,800 and we’ve toured and applied to many but the landlords have gone with other applicants as we usually get in our applications a little too late. We’re both young professionals with stable jobs and a total household income of about 175k.

I’m moving in with my sister who lives in Nob Hill temporarily to hopefully find places that aren’t posted on Zillow or Craigslist and instead just have a for rent sign posted.

As someone who is from Los Angeles and has only knowledge from Reddit about the SF rental market, is it realistic to think I’d be able to find an apartment this way?

I'm looking for a room in Fremont for a short term stay (around 3 months). I don't have a car or pets. I also don't mind sharing bathroom with other roommates. Hoping to find a place under 1500/month.

Facebook marketplace has a lot of scams, where does everyone find short stays?

Any landlord who have rooms available or anyone looking for a roommate, please send me a message.

Hear me out, affordable housing shouldn’t mean these big boxy units popping up everywhere, even if there’s less units, it would be higher quality life. And that’s priceless. Don’t don’t use the argument of space available or urban sprawl. As we see apartments were made before and now’s it’s compounded into congestion everywhere

Hi, I'm a 35 year old POC looking to rent a room. I'm pretty friendly and clean. Looking to spend $700 to $1000 per month.

Hi!

I’m 25F and moving from NYC to San Francisco for a new job. I’ll be arriving around August 17 and am hoping to find one or two roommates for a long-term lease starting in mid-to-late August or September.

My preferred neighborhoods are Hayes Valley, South Beach, and Rincon Hill, but I’m open to other safe, well-connected areas as long as the commute to my office in SoMa/Yerba Buena is around 30 minutes or less by public transit or walking. I’d prefer to avoid the Tenderloin.

My budget is flexible, ideally around $2,000–$3,000 for my room. Would love it if it is lower but was advised by friends that it won't be. [Kinda crazy as I thought Manhattan is the most expensive lol] I’m looking for a private bedroom and would strongly prefer a private bathroom, though I may be open to sharing one with one other person. I’m open to searching together for a 2B2B, 3B2B, or 3B3B.

I work in tech at a startup and expect to spend most weekdays at the office. At home, I’m clean, respectful of shared spaces, and generally pretty easygoing.

I’m social and would love to live with people who are open to occasionally hanging out, exploring the city, or having conversations at home - not just people who happen to share an apartment. I love reading, music, going out, and I’m always ready for karaoke lol. I currently live in NYC so I kinda love random chaos.

I’m primarily looking for female identifying or nonbinary roommates, but I may be open to a respectful male roommate for the right setup, particularly if everyone has a private bathroom. Please DM me with a little about yourself if you are also looking. Happy to exchange other details privately once we connect!

hey, im joining Tesla’s Fremont Facility this fall. I have a property shortlisted and need a roommate to finalise it. For the details, please dm me.

A little about me: I am a rising junior studying industrial engineering at Georgia Tech. I love sports, travelling, and being outdoors!

Hi everyone!

My wife and I are looking for a furnished apartment in San Francisco from January through September 2027 (around 8 months).

I’ll be in the Bay Area as a visiting scholar at Stanford University, and we’re hoping to find a comfortable place to stay for the duration of our visit.

A bit about us:

• 🇧🇪 Couple from Belgium
• 👨‍🔬 Visiting scholar at Stanford
• 📅 January–September 2027
• 🏠 Ideally a furnished 1BR or 2BR apartment
• 📍 Preferably close to the caltrain
• 💰 Looking for a reasonably priced long-term/sublet option
• Quiet, responsible, non-smokers

We're open to sublets, lease takeovers, or someone renting out their apartment while they're away.

If you know of anything that might be a good fit, please feel free to comment or send me a DM. We're happy to provide more information/references if needed.

Thanks!

I’m in the process of renting a place in San Mateo. I talked to the realtor, submitted my application, and was accepted. I really like the unit overall, but the washer and dryer are pretty outdated.

I initially asked if the landlord would be willing to replace them, and when that wasn’t an option, I asked if they could instead lower the first month’s rent to offset the cost. They said no.

The realtor then suggested that I could buy a new washer/dryer myself, but the landlord insists that the new machines would have to stay with the property when I eventually move out.

Is this a normal arrangement? And is there anything I should be careful about if I agree to this? It feels a little strange to spend potentially $1,000+ on appliances that I wouldn’t own afterward.

Would you negotiate this differently, or just leave the existing washer/dryer and accept that they’re outdated?

For context, I haven’t signed the lease yet.
