We tried for over a month to find our new apartment and went through many different obstacles. My Friend told me about your company and we were impressed right away!! We had been through two other agents before we found someone who was ACTUALLY able to help us and ease our concerns.Taryn McLeod Has been the most incredible, responsive, commutative and sweetest people we have ever dealt with professionally. Not only was she caring and honest and on top of everything, but she made us feel so comfortable in her hands. We worked with others for weeks and had no luck. People were careless and even stopped responding. Taryn found us an apartment right away. Literally out of two options based on what i shared with her in what we were looking for. We are so unbelievably grateful for Smart City and for Taryn, we can’t say it enough. GIVE THIS GIRL A RAISE !!Thank you Smart City and THANK YOU Taryn McLeod!!!

This company is amazing! They helped us find a apartment stress and headache free. Our realtor Taryn McLeod was a shining star in helping us find the perfect place. She was always available to us day or night with any questions we had and any hiccups we came across she was quick to help us figure them out. I highly recommend using Smart City Apartments the next time you plan to move!

If you are thinking of moving into an apartment - Katie is your go to gal in order to make it a reality! I am not from the area and was nervous about moving across the country to a city and state I’ve never visited. Not only did she reach out to me the same day I showed interest in Smart City, she sent me a list of apartments all within my budget, location and with incredible detail in less than 24 hours. I could tell she was on my side in my apartment search and really understood my needs and wants for finding my perfect apartment complex. She was relatable and made this process an absolute breeze. Within the matter of a few short days, we found our perfect apartment and started the application process. Any questions I had were responded to in a timely manner and I would recommend Katie and Smart City to everyone.Work with Katie and your apartment hunting process will be an amazing experience. I can’t say enough good things about my experience!

Smart City is such a helpful experience. I was moving to Austin for a job with literally having never set foot in Texas, so I was admittedly kinda nervous, but working with Smart City really helped me feel comfortable with huge move.I worked with Hannah and she was just amazing! She found me so many amazing options (all working within my budget, my work location, my preference to be out of downtown but not too far from downtown, my want to be close to the Greenbelt, and want for an apartment with a bigger dog park for my border collie.. a tall order indeed) and then helped me narrow down my choices from there until I was 100% confident in my decision. I never stepped foot in my foot in my apartment complex until move-in day, and I did so in complete confidence it was going to be amazing. And I was totally right!If youre moving to the Austin area, do yourself a favor and use Smart City (and hopefully youll get to work with Hannah too cause shes super sweet and just the best!) Thanks Hannah and Team!

I am so happy I chose to work with Smart City, I don’t think I would have been able to find an apartment I loved as much as this one without them. After having to leave another locating company for taking a week to send me apartments that were either out of my price range or not at all what I had asked to look at, I was left with a short deadline before my move-out date and apartments filling up every day.Beverly was extremely friendly and a pleasure to work with, and was happy to work with my deadlines, work schedule, and within my budget. I really felt that she had made me a priority and was invested in helping me find a place that I could call home. Because of her hard work I was able to tour apartments, apply, and be accepted in less time than the other company had sent me a list of places.I was also extremely impressed by the information they send you on potential apartments. The site is extremely easy to use and has all the information you would need to get an idea of the place, and loved that it included the floor plans of each layout, photos, and available specials.I would recommend working with this company in a heartbeat, and I know they’ll be my first call next time I’m in the search for a new place.

I am moving from St Louis to Austin in a couple of months and had the pleasure to work with Katie on finding my next home😊 Katie went above and beyond to show me everything in my budget/all the features I wanted. Even though it took me quite some time to choose the perfect fit she stayed patient and understanding through it all. ;)She not only gave me great advice toward the apartments, but also towards the area/location. She has great insight on it all!I would recommend working with her to anyone !!!

I had the pleasure of working with Taylor from Smart City Apartments - Austin. He was so communicative from the very beginning, listening to my needs and really understood exactly what I was looking for. He put my mind at ease knowing that he was only going to recommend the apartments that fit my style, budget, and in the neighborhood that I wanted. He has been very patient with me as I worked out the pros and cons of each spot and even a last minute change of the neighborhood I was interested in. They even called me after I put in my application to let me know that they will help me with setting up utilities and finding movers. I 100% recommend Smart City Apartments, it has made this whole move a million times easier! 5 STARS!

Katie from Smart City is the BEST!! I literally found an apartment in less than 24 hours. Im coming from New York so dont know the area well and the apartment renting process is so much different here! Katie answered all of my questions, gave me amazing advice while also letting me see tons of options, she hyped me up when I wasnt feeling so confident about committing to an apartment (because of it being such a new area!) and was all around just truly amazing. Super responsive, gave me tons of options and did her absolute best to give me all the amenities I want while still being in my price range. I would recommend Smart City and Katie 11 out of 10 times! Thank you so much, Katie!!!!

My brother and I worked with Ari Owens and she gave us an even better experience than I could have hoped for. She was always super responsive, and was willing to search multiple places to help find something that fit what we were looking for even in a competitive market. We were able to find and apply for the perfect place in our price range and it would not have happened without Aris help. Thank you again for an amazing experience!

I used Smart City Apartment Locator Austin to help me look for my first apartment. The service was great! And it was all thanks to Taryn. She made the apartment search and touring easy and stress free. If you ever need an apartment locator, I highly recommend Taryn. She’ll make sure you find the best apartment for your location and budget.

I highly recommend Smart City Apartment Locator to anyone looking for an apartment in the Austin area! Taylor took all the stress out of finding an apartment since my time was very limited! I moved from Chicago and only had 1 day to tour apartments in Austin before signing a lease. Taylor and I spoke on the phone prior to me coming to Austin so that he could get to know my preferences and what I was looking for. He set up (and joined) 4 apartment showings for me and they were each in different areas of the city. I really appreciated him explaining the different areas since I had never been down here before. He ensured that all of my questions were answered and even asked the apartment complexes things that I wouldn’t have thought of if I was on my own. When it became time for the application and lease signing he was also very supportive. Overall Taylor was very professional and a pleasure to work with!

If found Katie from Smart City Locating and she was amazing. She really listened to everything I wanted in my apartment during my search. She was always communicating and checking up regularly. If I didn’t like a place she always found another apartment to look at. She’s super flexible and understanding. She knew what questions to ask when touring an apartment and knew the details for every apartment we saw together. I highly recommend her to anyone who is planning on moving to Austin or just looking for a new apartment!

I needed to change my living situation last minute, and Taylor with Smart City took on the challenge of finding me an AMAZING apartment, within my budget, location preference, and in my short time frame. Taylor really went above and beyond to show and guide me through all my options, and helped me make a great decision. Not only did he work within my needs, he found be a great deal in a place that was above my expectations. I send all my friends moving into town to him directly now! Dont hesitate to call Taylor! Hes got your back.

I worked with Katie to locate an apartment and Im sure the list of requirements I shared with her was long. When she found a place within a day that fit ALL my requirements, I was honestly surprised! She was friendly, highly professional, kind, and communicated every relevant detail. Lightning speed! The whole experience was so pleasant for me; we all know how stressful apartment hunting by yourself can be.Smart City is truly smart - they seem to know every nook and corner of Austin area, whats new, up and coming. Not only the locating services but also concierge services like finding movers, renters insurance and so forth. If you want to explore the type of apartment they find, just head to their Instagram! Thats how I found Smart City.Highly recommend Smart City and do ask for Katie! All the nice people at Smart City - thank you for all the great work and really caring about your clients!

Working with Katie Douglas was a fantastic experience! In this crazy rental market, she made sure to provide a variety of options, and set realistic expectations for us while also remaining so kind and reassuring that wed find something great! She was the guiding hand we needed to navigate the stress of apartment shopping, especially with both of us being so busy with work and life. Incredibly responsive as well, which is appreciated when you have an unpredictable schedule!

This has been the best experience I have had finding an apartment.

Review №22

Hannah was referred to me by a friend whenever I expressed my frustration working with an apartment locator at a different company. After a five minute call to tell her what I was looking for, she had listings sent over to me and we were touring apartments the next day. She knew where the deals were and negotiated with leasing agents to get me the best place at the best price. The toughest part about the whole process was not finding a place, it was choosing which one I wanted; they were all so amazing.I recommend Hannah to all my friends and clients looking for the perfect place in Austin. Moving is a hassle but Hannah makes it easy and enjoyable. If I move again (I don’t know if I will because I love my apartment so much) she is the first person I’m going to call.

If you have specific needs for your future apartment, Smart City will get you there - specifically Anthony P. He helped me day in and day out with patience, professionalism, great communication, & more!He was extremely organized & paid great attention to detail & everything that I was looking for in an apartment. He answered all of my questions & even acted as a liaison between myself and the leasing staff to ensure that all information was accurate.Thank you so much, Anthony & Smart City!

I wanted to write a review about Emma from Smart City Locating in Austin. First, she was very responsive and honest about the apartment market. Second, she listened to my requests before even discussing options, as opposed to guessing what I wanted. Lastly, she was very patience with my spastic mindset. My company decided to change directions for the position, therefore, I was not in need of her service. However, I am still hoping to accept a job in Austin but until then, I wish Emma the best!! Again, she was very professional and responsive. I would give her TEN stars!!

Michele was super professional and helpful and was able to get in contact with a leasing office when I wasn’t myself!

We had an incredible experience with Sarah Cavner. She worked closely with my wife & I to find us the perfect apartment. The Austin rental market is CRAZY, having Sarah on our side made the process much easier as she has a wealth of knowledge regarding the current market as well as upcoming new buildings, move in specials etc. She took the time to understand our needs & preferences & didn’t stop touring with us until we found the perfect spot. Thank you for all of the help!

I worked with Katie and she made my life so easy! Every question I had she answered and made any kind of uneasy feelings disappear!

My roommate and I are moving to Austin and are new to the city, so we reached out to Smart City Locator because of the overwhelming amount of apartment options in the area. We worked with Marina Parker, and she was very receptive of what my roommate and I were looking for! She sent us a list prior to visiting and followed up closer to our viewing date with updated apartment availabilities. Marina also kept in contact with us during the entire process of looking/selecting an apartment to get a better idea of our budget and features/amenities we were looking for. Smart City Locator is an absolutely free service, and all they ask is for open communication. Overall, I had a great experience with Smart City Locator, and I highly recommend working with them and Marina!

My experience with Smart City was awesome! I had a few very specific requests that I needed to be fulfilled that were great for me but a pain for any apartment locator. I had the privilege of being attended to by Sara Mesa who not only accepted my painful requests with a smile but also had me doing a tour within just a few days! The communication was customized to my preferred methods and was very prompt. Im thrilled about my new place! Thank you Sara and Smart City!

I worked with Skylar and she was awesome! She listened attentively to my needs and updated me frequently on locations around the city that were within my budget as well as areas I was interested in calling home. Skylar was super patient, showing me multiple properties, helping me weigh out pros & cons, and offering knowledge on the Austin rental market. Not a single bad thing to say, the whole experience was professional, seamless, and honestly fun! Thanks, Skylar for all your help!

Emma was extremely helpful and super kind as well! She narrowed down my search from around 20 apartments to two which really stood out and had everything I needed. She was very knowledgeable in the field of apartment locating, and did basically all of the work for me. All I had to do was go in for a tour and sign on! I would definitely recommend Smart City if you need help finding a good place to live but arent a genius researcher like these people (and its free!).

If you are looking into using Smart City Austin, definitely request to work with EMMA! She was absolutely amazing and made the process SO easy! She is personable and kind with her communication, while also putting in hard work to find you the best future home! She asks about all the things you want in a future home (amenities, distance for commuting to work, appliances, etc.) and complies a list of apartments that are the best match for you. AND she goes even further by setting up the tours for you, which was a huge time saver! She was so honest with her advise on the best areas, safety in the surrounding communities and the places that she was the biggest fan of after touring herself. (A locals advise is seriously everything when moving). I literally cannot recommend her enough, and I am so excited to be moving into our new home! Thank you Emma! To say you were helpful is a massive understatement... someone give this girl a raise!

Hadley was amazing! My boyfriend has been wanting to move to Austin for awhile and since he travels for work, he does not have much time to do all the research himself on places. Hadley worked with me to find the best place for him by sending us a list of places that fit what he was looking for and she set up all of our tours as well. She also helped with communication with the apartment complex when he was ready to sign. Would definitely use them again for the future. Thank you, Hadley!

So far the service received from our Smart City has been great! From our initial phone call to being assigned an agent. Once assigned to us, Andres Chavez has been awesome and found us our long term home. He was very patient and understanding and really listened to what we wanted and found us a property with everything we wanted and more! He initially provided several options based on our specifications and walked us through the pros and cons for each property. He really went above and beyond!We have yet to take advantage of the concierge services, but we are looking forward to doing so. The fact they Smart City offers addition services besides helping you find your home is great and will be a tremendous help during a stressful time, it will make things so much easier when moving day comes around! We cant wait to take advantage of them!Well definitely recommend Smart City Apartment Locators to anyone and everyone looking for their next home in Austin!

I didnt want to use this site at first. I though for sure they were going to use a computer algorithm to kinda sorta do the same thing you could have done on any apartment search site. And I thought for sure they would spam your email forever and somehow your email would get into the hands of other websites. I couldnt have been more wrong. Almost immediately after I put in my information, a person ( a real live person! Stella!!) was texting me to get down to the nitty gritty of what we were really looking for in an apartment. Within a day, Stella had SEVEN units for me to look at along with all the information I would normally have to dig for myself. More info even! She got prices, she got square footage, she got terms, addresses, date available, and insights both personally and from the property. She seriously saved me the hassle of hours worth of work, and when its time to find a new home in Austin, I really hope I can find her here again. Definitely an invaluable service and absolutely free of charge to you. Just send them puppy pics if they & you are so inclined.

Finding my next apartment through Smart City was the best decision ever! I worked with Noah Halle and he was so quick yet thorough. In the same day I spoke to him, he sent me a list of apartments that fit my standards. Working with Noah and Smart City eliminated all the stress of apartment searching. They even offer services that help you move in and get settled at your new place. When the time comes for my next move, I will definitely use Smart City again!

Marina was the MOST helpful. My husband and I were moving to Austin from FL and we had put a deposit down already on an apartment. When we arrived, the apartment turned out to be nothing like we expected and so we had only 2 days to find a new place to live. Marina listened to all of our criteria and was so quick with her responses. She sent me dozens of places that had availabilities and helped explain the city to me so I could get a lay of the land. Would recommend her & Smart City Apt Locater to anyone looking to move to Austin!!

I highly recommend using Smart City Locator to find an apartment. Hannah Ringley was simply the best. She carefully considered all my needs to find me the perfect place, quickly figured out answers to all my questions, drove down to the apartments to give me a proper virtual tour, and made sure the process after went by smoothly for me. All of that was extremely helpful since I was looking to move from NJ. Using Smart City made life so much easier for me.

I sadly didnt have the greatest experience with Smart City moving from out of state. But i would still recommend them to others because they do really want to help people.My issue with them was because of fair housing laws Smart City cannot tell you the neighborhood the apartment is in is sketchy (homeless encampments). I appreciate them trying to help my situation after. They are really nice people and do want everyone to find a happy place to live and have a great moving experience

Clearly I don’t even need to make this review because all of the reviews have been 5 stars so far, but I just had to. I could not recommend this service more. My locator Sarah Cavner reached out to me within a few hours of signing up. She was extremely knowledgeable about the Austin apartment scene. She even knew every little detail of the apartment I was living in at the time. She knew exactly what I was looking for after having a 10 minute conversation with her. I felt like I had a new best friend within the first 10 minutes of us meeting. She went above and beyond her responsibilities by helping to make sure our new home was more than satisfactory even after we signed the lease and moved in. She has been so friendly that we invited her to our housewarming. She was available at all hours even when I was stressed out late at night trying to decide which of the fantastic options to choose, we called her and she talked me through everything and melted away all my anxiety. She has exceeded every expectation! If you are stressed out about finding your new home, you have got to use this service. It is totally FREE and there is no catch at all, and it was so good that I wish I could pay for it. Do yourself a favor and call smart city immediately

My roommate and I recently used Smart City Locating to find an apartment in north Austin. We worked with Madeline Hastings, and it was a great experience! We talked through what we were looking for and she quickly sent us several strong options that met all of our criteria. From start to finish, Madeline gave us tons of helpful info, set up tours, and helped us think through all the relevant factors to get the best deal.

I went through Smart City Locator and had Lynette help me out !!I can’t remember the last time I’ve left a review but I wanted to make sure that whoever goes through Smart City gets Lynette because she is on top of her stuff !! Not only did I get exactly what I wanted for my low price range, but she was able to find me an apartment in a cute location, and followed up with me every week reminding of important dates and when to lock in my search. I absolutely adore her and I recommended her to a friend and she already had them moved in a couple of months in to speaking with them.That woman knows what she’s doing!!! Ask for Lynette. 10/10 experience. I would definitely use Smart City Locator again.

Hannah was awesome! She worked with me and my roommate and she was very patient, nice and informative. The first apartment she showed us we actually ended up signing at! Talk about a quick and smooth process, definitely would reach out to her if we moved again! :)

Hadley is the best. She is so amazingly helpful in the whole process of finding a new home with everything you want and love! Would highly recommend working with them. It saves you the headache/time because everything is literally done for you with no cost to you.

Oh my goodness! I cannot say enough great things about Noah Halle and Smart City Austin! I met with Noah to begin our search and the experience was amazing and incredibly fast! He is a great listener and simply a blast to work with. Looking for a new place can feel stressful, but with Noah, we chatted like old friends, and he found my new little apartment within 2 days! I planned to move within 3 days of finding it, and immediately had other employees from Smart City contacting me to offer help with finding moving companies, setting up internet, electricity, etc. The entire process was seamless and easy! Just a week later, and I am happily moved in! Even my little dog Sophie loves the new place! Thank you Noah and Smart City Austin! I will definitely be recommending you to anyone in Austin needing help with finding a new place! You guys are the best!

This was my first time using Smart City and I loved it! I tried to look for housing on my own but it was really overwhelming. Sara helped me find a new apartment for me that fit everything I wanted! She was super helpful, nice, and always responded very promptly!! :)

Taylor is the absolute best for Smart City ATX! He found us our dream apartment by listening to exactly what we wanted and seeking it out! He also attended our tours and asked all the questions we never would have thought to ask that ended up being the deal breakers! He got to all the apartments we toured early, got us set up with the leasing office and just ultimately knew his stuff!! If you need an apartment hunter, Taylor is the one!!!!!!

Trying to find a place to live remotely can be very challenging, but Taylor has been AMAZING to work with. Knowledgeable, attentive, and very quick to respond, Taylor has made my move 100x easier. If anybody is considering using this service I highly recommend reaching out. 10/10!

Our experience was amazing! Heidi helped our daughter find a great place in her budget. She listened to her needs, got an extensive list of real possibilities together and then set us up with an easy schedule to follow. Heidi immediately responded to texts and emails, and even met us at one complex; SO personable, authentic, and professional. I HIGHLY recommend contacting Heidi at Smart City!!!

We worked with Heidi who simply went above and beyond to help us find a place that met our needs. Not only was Heidi attentive she was prompt, respectful, and proactive as well.I came to her with a preliminary list of places. We actually found the perfect place that hadnt even made our list! Again, we cannot recommend Smart City and Heidi enough!

Sara Mesa helped me find a place super quick. It took about a week from start to finish. I’m so happy with my experience and I was even able to get a referral bonus for getting a friend to go through Smart City. Definitely recommend!

Marina was the absolute best. She went above and beyond to help me find a place. She was thorough with her research and knew the right questions to ask the apartment folks. She will be in your corner the entire step of the way. By all accounts, a really good human!

I am currently using Smart City ATX and so far so good. They have amazing customer service and really listen to your wants and needs. I got assigned to Hannah and she has been the biggest help in narrowing down apartment searches and really give me what I want in my budget. They’re amazing!

I used Smart City to help me relocate to Austin and they were so helpful. I worked with Jennifer and I couldnt recommend her enough!! Not only was she attentive and quick to respond, but she also was great at listening and adjusting when the initial apartments werent exactly what I was looking for. I will definitely recommend Smart City to my friends and use their service again if Im planning to move. Im so happy with the apartment I ended up choosing and Smart City made the process relatively stress-free and accessible.

I had the best experience ever with Nico from Smart City- he took into account everything that I was looking for in an apartment, including budget, the direction I wanted my balcony to face, location, etc and found me my dream place. My apartment hunting process took so many more months than I had anticipated due to some unforeseen circumstances and he stayed patient and encouraging throughout all of it. I will ABSOLUTELY recommend Nico to anyone I come across thats looking for an apartment.

I was having some issues trying to find the perfect place for me in a short amount of time and then Emma Tasker was recommended to me and she did an incredible job to find me exactly what I was looking for in just about an hour. The best experience I’ve had so far. Thank you Emma!!

I didnt end up renting an apartment through Smart City, since my partner and I opted to lease a duplex directly managed by a landlord. But I had a great introductory experience with Mariana when I called to inquire about their services. She gave me a thorough overview of all the forces stressing Austins housing market and was a model of calm, poise and patience as she listened to our search criteria and walked me through different housing options. If I knew someone in Austin was looking for an apartment locator, Id recommend her in a heartbeat.

My boyfriend and I were in a bad spot and needed a new apartment quickly. Sara M. was incredibly helpful and found us the most perfect apartment in less than a week. She was able to find a place that matched all of our requirements and help us negotiate for an early move in!

Smart City is top notch apartment locating service. I worked with Liz Dickey and I was thoroughly impressed. I sent her my list of preferences and she quickly got back to me with a list of properties that matched. She even took care of setting up all of the appointments and toured each property with me. Liz is so personable and funny, she made this whole process so seamless and easy. I highly recommend Smart City, and be sure to ask for Liz Dickey!

Hannah is amazing, not enough positive things I can say about her professionalism, kindness and general care helping me relocate during COVID, to a new home 1800 miles away to a city I had never visited before.She not only helped me move into a quality apt and neighborhood, but sent me virtual walk throughs of units she personally took; helping me successfully move weeks before I was relocated to Austin from Miami.Definitely working with Hannah again, she is a pleasure and wonderful in her profession.Thank you, Hannah!!

My husband and I worked with Hannah Ringley to help us move to a completely different city, Austin. Hannah was super patient and made sure she addressed all of our questions, at any time, even on weekends. She found us greattt recommendations and taught us newbies all the tricks in the trade to get the best possible deal. Loved working with Smart city and highly recommend them for finding your new home!

Full disclosure: I ended up not renting an apartment in Austin but not because Taylor Payne didnt go above and beyond, and I want to brag on him regardless. He reached out to me within hours of my internet inquiry. Not only was he friendly and professional, but very eager to help me relocate from out of state. Im pretty sure he ran himself ragged the week before I came to town, trying to put together a list of beautiful properties that would check off most of my needs & wants list. In addition, when some of those options didnt quite work, he went back to the drawing board at a moments notice and worked relentlessly to find great alternatives. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a rental in the Austin area. He really knows the market and hes fun to boot! A pleasure to work with on every level. :)

Smart City made a difficult move such a dream. Hannah was always johnny-on-the-spot to take all the videos or pics I needed to feel comfortable moving from CA to TX and the apt I landed in lived up to all the hype. I wouldnt hesitate to use Hannah and SC in a heartbeat if I need to move again

I can’t say enough good things about working with Noah and the Smart City team. We went into the apartment hunt with a pretty conservative budget and a list of tough to fulfill priorities (like room for a dining room table & solving work from home challenges). Noah made things easy for us by presenting us with a variety of options that helped drill down further into what we needed and wanted. He was thoughtful, thorough, and listened to our feedback. His process landed us our dream apartment! It’s even better than what we envisioned and, I promise, we never would have found this place without Noah’s help.Once we decided on a place, the Smart City team followed up with moving resources. We got a great deal on movers that I honestly would’ve paid more for (they really did an amazing job). They saved us a ton of time on hunting for options across the board. Thank you again!! Y’all are amazing and I would work with Noah and the team again in a heartbeat.

Renee Semerar was absolutely amazing!! I was recommend to Smart City by a friend after expressing to her my anxiety of not knowing where I would live. Apartment searching is so stressful to especially in a city I don’t know and when there are so many options.Renee was very personable and treated me like a friend. She addressed all my concerns and really listened to all my wants/needs. After a long journey and me not being able to make a decision she found a hidden gem. I am absolutely obsessed with the apartment I picked out and I would’ve never been able to do this on my own.Highly recommend Smart City to anyone who is looking for a new apartment. They will make the entire search fun and effortless.

Great people to work with - they made the apartment search easy and nowhere near as stressful as I thought itd be. Worked w Rosie and she found several places that met my requirements, which was impressive since my number 1 need was a place w no breed restrictions. She never went above my max budget, though I did end up spending a little more since the market is crazy right now (~5 days between getting the list and touring and the desired on-budget apts were already leased out).Only con is I wish they communicated via a shared phone number or email domain - its a bit shady getting random numbers sending links and asking for personal information
