Stooper is a free NYC app for no-fee flexible housing – built by New Yorkers to simplify sublets, lease takeovers, and no-fee rental listings.

WHY STOOPER?

OUR STORY
Stooper started with a simple frustration: we believed finding a sublet or breaking a lease in New York was way harder than it needed to be. Our app replaces chaotic social-media listings with an easy-to-use listing and filtering platform. We know life doesn’t always follow a 12-month schedule and flexible rentals are a natural part of the rental ecosystem. Stooper helps renters in life transitions (job moves, internships, breakups, lease changes etc.) find housing solutions that fit their timeline through a platform embracing middle-term rental listings.

SUITIBLE FOR EVERYONE
- Search Flexible NYC Rentals: Discover and browse every borough for sublets, lease takeovers, and no-fee rentals. The app’s features let users list and find NYC sublets, lease takeovers, and no-fee rentals in seconds. You can search by neighborhood and listings citywide (much like StreetEasy’s broad NYC search).

- Powerful Filters: Narrow results instantly by lease type, price, move-in date, neighborhood or even nearest subway. As Stooper’s filter screen shows, you can specify exactly what you need (price range, dates, room type, etc.) to zero in on the right option.

- Built-in Secure Chat: Message listers directly in the app. Our private chat lets you ask questions, request tours, or arrange viewings, letting you control how much personal contact info you share.

- Trusted Community Listings: All listings on Stooper are verified by two-factor authenticated users and include easy reporting tools – no anonymous social media posts. Stooper was created by New Yorkers tired of scrolling aimlessly through social media housing groups online, so we prioritize building a trusted community where every listing has a real person behind it.

- Free and No Fees: Download and browse for free. Stooper helps connect renters and listers / landlords directly (no broker fees or hidden fees in compliance with the FARE act). This keeps upfront costs down and transparency high.

- Ideal for Transitions: Designed for life’s in-between moments. Whether you’re a student on break, a young professional relocating, or someone whose lease no longer fits TKOheir timeline, Stooper matches you to housing.
