Comment on Charging to tour rental properties...

  A site charging for reading messages will most definitely censor out emails and phone numbers and will have it in their ToS that you’re not allowed to take conversations outside the platform.

  Probably. Not much I can do. I’m not paying for a subscription. If anyone has any advice for finding roommates otherwise, I would very much appreciate it!

    Why did people stop using craigslist?

    It is just the old bulletin board / classified newspaper niche, usually there’s more than one venue in urban areas.

      Craigslist probably doesn’t have enough empty space and rounded corners for most people. I’m not joking.

      Scammers go to fb marketplace over Craigslist because meta is slow to react if at alp, while Craigslist is known to easily and freely offer information to law enforcement.

        Yes, friends don’t let friends use Meta products.

      Thank you so much! Craigslist is something I had completely forgotten about. I dropped off Facebook years ago and unfortunately don’t live in Canada, but Craigslist is a great suggestion and I’m perusing it now. You may have just saved me from living in my car (again.)

      Seriously, thank you!

        A client at work which is a local property management company (big enough to have 2 part time employees and one full time property maanger) lists all of their properties on Craigslist as well as many more commercial sites, so it’s not just mom and pops on there

        You go! Also check for more niche classified sites, like specific to universities etc.
