Highly Recommend My roommate and I were struggling for weeks to find a place to live in the bay area. We discovered PadPiper only days before we would need to move into an apartment and somehow, found a listing that matched all of our criteria in a beautiful neighborhood to boot! The process was seamless and the customer service is fantastic - Jack and Zach are kind, attentive and very personable co-founders. Coming from NYC, and Boston, I've had my fair share of apartment-search and rental experiences before-- but renting through Padpiper's platform was by far the most seamless and feels the most trustworthy. The reminders of when your rent is due are also super helpful. I highly recommend that you use their service!!

Kopa is Awesome! We love using Kopa as an alternative to Airbnb. Their platform has helped us rent our places to top notch interns around the Bay Area. We only use Kopa and Airbnb but Kopa is great because their technology is better and their service fees are lower. We have all 20+ of our properties on Kopa. Very legitimate platform with quality renters.

Kopa Ghost Customer Support Kopa charges outrageous fees to their property owners compared to other platforms that provide similar services. They are quick to remove funds from your account but do not respond when refunds are to be made back into your account. There is no phone number to call for authentic customer support, so they simply do not respond to written emails. I do not recommend using this platform as a landlord.

Great properties and amazing people with fair fees Our company needed to rent a place for 3 months in Silicon Valley and I faced the daunting task to find a home in Mountain View suitable for 10 people and with a reasonable price. AirBnb and Vrbo were the obvious places to start the search, but after a few weeks of daily search and messaging dozens of landlords I was really pessimistic - we would probably be in San Jose rather than MV and paying extremely high fees. I consider the aforementioned platforms work great for really short term rentals (2 weeks max, maybe) but when your demand is measured is months, there ir nothing like Faros. We were able to find a lovely place with an extremely thoughtful landlord and fair price. The whole process was a breeze and Faro's team went above and beyond to help us having a great experience. I enthusiastically recommend Faros to everybody looking for a furnished home in monthly periods!

When you are in need of a place to… When you are in need of a place to live, being strung along isn't something you want to deal with. I inquired about a property and decided I wanted to rent. I wanted to rent at the end of the month but the person I dealt with wanted me to pay rent starting the middle of the month, which had already past. It wasn't going to happen and I'm not sure why they thought that was okay. I attempted to communicate with them but they just ignored my emails. So instead of renting to me, the property is back on the website.
