Apartment Hunting Is the Worst Thing, But iOS App Lovely Eases the Pain – by Leslie Horn
When you’re looking for a new place to live, you probably typically search Craigslist or Trulia or something similar, but Lovely is a little bit different in that it lets you set up alerts that include price range, number of bedrooms, and neighborhood, down to a radius of a few blocks. If a crib comes up, you’ll get an email or a push notification. Conveniently enough, you can email or call the landlord directly, rather than going through a middleman or a broker (although it’s not an entirely broker-free zone). Lovely also claims to get 50 listings a second from dozens of different sources. That sounds like a lot, but if the real number is even close to that, you definitely have a good chance of finding your new digs. [iTunes]
