Bike Score measures bikeability of a rental on a scale of 1–100, based on four components: the presence of bike lanes and trails nearby, local hills, destinations and road connectivity, and the number of bikers currently in the area. Bike Score ® feature (currently available): Zillow listings now include a Bike Score to help renters more easily gauge whether a rental is a good match for their lifestyle.In addition, users can save their multilocation searches and opt to receive email and push notifications with results and recommendations. It also gives users the option to easily sift through the listings on the map or all in the same results feed. Users can find available rentals in up to five different areas at once, allowing them to compare homes and find what best suits their needs and their budget. Multilocation search (currently available): Now available on the Zillow app, the multilocation search feature makes the rental search experience even more flexible.The following four new features help renters act faster during their search and zero in on only those rentals that fit their needs: In addition to the move-in date search feature and Renter Hub upgrades, Zillow has recently released or is developing additional tools to empower renters. "Our Renter Hub upgrades and new search filters give renters confidence they are exclusively seeing the homes that fit their needs - including their move-in timing and their budget - and that they aren't missing any messages from prospective landlords, even on the go." And now that the rentals market is more expensive than ever, ensuring lease start and end dates align is critical to avoid paying rent for two homes at once," said Christopher Roberts, senior vice president and general manager of Zillow Rentals. Sorting through emails and keeping track of all the landlords or leasing offices you've contacted is a hassle on its own. "If you've ever been a renter, you know how stress-inducing the search process is. Monthly payments on a typical mortgage are more than 75% higher than they were in June 2019. Many prospective home buyers are opting to stay in the rentals market as the cost of buying continues to rise. These Zillow app updates are vital in a market where demand for rentals is growing rapidly. Now, instead of users having to dig through their inbox and toggle to and from the Zillow app for updates on their rental search, Renter Hub keeps contacted rentals, messages with prospective landlords and all of the up-to-date details on their current home organized in one place, right at their fingertips. According to Zillow's 2022 Consumer Housing Trends Report, a majority (60%) of recent renters said they used an app on a smartphone or tablet to search for a rental. Renters can easily see which properties they've contacted and applied to, respond to messages from prospective landlords, and manage their current lease and rent payment schedule - all from the Zillow app. In addition to potentially saving thousands of dollars by using the move-in date filter, renters can also save time by utilizing Zillow Renter Hub, now available on the Zillow app.
