Relocating is never easy. It is a word that brings about thoughts of a stressful apartment search, hours of packing, and thousands of dollars in moving costs. However, New York-based tech startup YourNeighborhood is looking to simplify the way you find the next place you live.
Using real estate prices, lifestyle and neighborhood data, along with user reviews and submissions, YourNeighborhood aims to help guide individuals toward areas ideal for their criteria -- and their wallet. The site also features information regarding public transit, along with a neighborhood matching tool. Using homegrown algorithms and website information, the feature allows users to input the criteria most important to them in a potential neighborhood and be guided to areas that best meet their needs.
Co-founders Eric Levy and Andrew Curtis observed a common thread amongst their friends and family when they were looking to move. They all lacked a resource to assist in picking the best fit area to live. In addition, he noticed a majority of them experienced some form of buyer?s remorse after all was said and done.
?People often say ?I?m going to try and find the best deal on an apartment,? but once they move, they find the area is not a good match. We are looking to help get it right the first time and make relocation a fun experience!? says Levy.
Many sites exists solely to find rentals or sales within a particular area, thereby missing the important first step of locating the ideal neighborhood. YourNeighborhood is looking help with this crucial part of the moving process and start people off on the right track.
"There are many resources for finding an apartment or house, but none that truly gives one the ability to research the neighborhoods which they are looking to move and guide them in the right direction. Moving can be a very stressful process, and we wanted to create a site that helps individuals find the best neighborhood for them so they truly love where they live," says Levy.
Launched in beta this month, YourNeighborhood is aiming to help those moving or relocating to New York City find their best fit neighborhood. Future plans include adding features pertaining to other steps of the moving process, along with increasing the number of cities featured on the site.
