Good question, I wish I knew. The closest I’ve found is sometimes Zillow, but it’s pretty different, not really comparable.
I’m not on Facebook, but from what I hear they’ve got the monopoly on this kind of thing now.
My pet peeve with Facebook listings, although it happens on craigslist too, is people advertising as if it's a rental for an apartment to yourself but then it turns out it's a share housing situation
Yeah there are a ton of these on Craigs List lately too. It’ll be a whole listing that appears to be a standalone separate unit, but it turns out to be shared. Sometimes there will be hints like “private entrance” or something, but it’s still pretty deceptive.
On CL there's a dedicated place to seek roommates and no shortage of people seeking that arrangement. Not clear why people spam the apartment rental section
