Compile and filter apartment listings

A renter used Claude and ChatGPT to compile property-management sites and filter listings; results were decent but included some out-of-parameter listings, and he found a place through a friend.

Done with a custom-built or unnamed agent

What they did
Renno Mihalis, 23, had one week to find an apartment in San Francisco after getting a job offer. Rather than using a single rental platform, he used Claude and ChatGPT to compile a list of property management websites. He set search parameters for price, location and apartment size.
How it went
The AI did a pretty good job listing apartments within his parameters, but sometimes included ones outside them. He ended up finding a place through a family friend's vacancy.
Worth knowing
Mihalis said AI might have helped more if he'd had more than a week, so check every result against your own criteria.

Try it yourself with Perplexity Comet

Visit the property-management sites for [list of buildings or companies] in [city] and compile every available listing that fits my criteria: [bedrooms], under [rent] per month, [pets or parking needs], available by [date]. Put them in a table with address, rent, availability, and link, and flag any listing that doesn't exactly meet my criteria. Don't submit applications or contact forms without showing me first.
