Thanks to HousingAnywhere, I'm confident in quickly finding replacements whenever needed.

Souad’s journey as a property manager began in 2014. She needed to optimise her living situation between Rome and Brussels. Souad decided to begin subletting her own place. She quickly decided to manage more properties, and her portfolio grew fast. Soon, she was responsible for the rental of over 34 rooms — earning her an excellent reputation with platforms like HousingAnywhere. She realised that flat-sharing rentals are in high demand in Brussels and continued to add properties to her portfolio.

Before discovering HousingAnywhere, Souad tried various platforms to manage her rentals. However, these platforms often led to inconsistent tenant quality. She faced tenant compatibility issues and had a challenging time managing these tenancies. There was also a lack of support from these platforms for property managers like Souad. She was often left to deal with her property management problems alone.

Souad highlighted the difference between her experience using HousingAnywhere and that of other platforms.

I rarely found the same tenant compatibility and quality with other platforms. It was a constant challenge trying to find suitable tenants that could live comfortably with others.

Once she started using HousingAnywhere to find new tenants, Souad noticed a remarkable improvement in the quality and compatibility of the tenants. One particular instance stood out when she used HousingAnywhere to fill her Saint Gilles apartment in Brussels

It was truly extraordinary. All of the roommates, a diverse group of girls and boys, were connected through HousingAnywhere. Such a mix of people created an exceptional living atmosphere, and they all got along so well.

HousingAnywhere helped Souad handle tenant departures effectively. Even when a tenant had to leave their apartment earlier than planned, HousingAnywhere helped Souad fill the vacancy quickly.

An Italian student faced a dilemma when her university schedule changed, and she had to leave a month early. I reassured her there would be no extra charges because, with HousingAnywhere, I found a suitable replacement right away.

Using HousingAnywhere allows Souad to offer her tenants flexibility and understanding while also simplifying her rental process.

Great tenant experiences

Souad has seen amazing results with HousingAnywhere. She finds compatible tenants who live comfortably with their fellow tenants. This is a significant change from her experience with other rental platforms, where finding compatible tenants was challenging. Now, thanks to HousingAnywhere, her properties have a great atmosphere where everyone gets along.

Simplifying the rental process

Souad’s job as a property manager is much easier now that she uses HousingAnywhere. As a property manager, time is of the essence and property viewings are time-consuming. HousingAnywhere pairs tenants and landlords without the need to view the property.

I'm always busy dealing with different things. I don't have time to show people around the properties; being able to rent without doing this is very helpful.

With features like HousingAnywhere’s safe and secure payments, Souad avoids any financial loss that may occur. This gives her the freedom to spend her time and energy on keeping her tenants happy. Souad uses HousingAnywhere’s chat function to get to know her tenants before they book. This helps her to screen prospective tenants in a private manner.

The chat on HousingAnywhere lets me talk directly with people who want to rent. This helps me pick the right tenants for my properties.

Looking ahead with HousingAnywhere

Souad plans to continue growing her property portfolio and intends to do so with HousingAnywhere. With secure payments and features that match her with quality tenants,HousingAnywhere has simplified Souad’s life as a property manager. She is excited to continue finding new tenants with the help of HousingAnywhere.

I've had great results with HousingAnywhere. I will continue to use it for all my new properties.
