HOMEBOY vs RentRedi

HOMEBOY searches German property sources for new listings that match a saved profile, then sends them by app notification or email. Profiles can specify a city or district, rent, living area, room count and radius, with filters for short-term, premium, WBS and shared-flat offers. HOMEBOY names eight sources, including ImmobilienScout24, Immowelt, Kleinanzeigen, WG-Gesucht, Immonet, Quoka and eBay, and says it may notify users up to 30 minutes before property portals do. Listings link to their source; users contact the landlord or representative and apply themselves. The Android and iOS apps support profiles, results, favorites, application status and a stored application template. Email forwarding currently works through the web version. The free plan permits one rental-apartment profile for rent up to €1,000. Premium covers higher rents, houses and purchases. Premium Monthly is €19.99 a month and includes four profiles and four recipients. HOMEBOY is a BINGOOO AG product based in Bonn, Germany.
