I know it's sometimes easier for landlords to go through brokers, but this is great for apartment owners who want to be more hands-on, or for people who want to try and find a new place to live without paying exorbitant fees to agencies.
UrbanCompass (now just Compass) tried to do something very similar. One of my biggest disappointments as an NYC renter has been that they didn't succeed in their original vision. This looks great, but the NYC renting market is insanely difficult to crack, they've definitely got their work cut out for them.
