Unlike other sites, it doesn't seem to discount renters seeking the cheapest of places, and genuinely helps all income ranges for free, from a renter's perspective. The ONLY thing I think it could possibly do better is to not let the Avail platform (company) to so easily solicit apartmentlist users, because Avail's security of the data it asks for before a property's "manager" will even interact with a potential renter is dubious. If apartmentlist were smart, it would offer the same service as Avail while guaranteeing users that their personal info be kept in a sort of "escrow" from property "managers" until and unless said managers and their postings are vetted as legitimate AND create a "rentability" scale for potential renters that property managers can trust so that renters' personal informations do not HAVE to be disclosed to anyone but the secure site that apartmentlist guarantees renters to maintain.
