Zeus Living — Easiest way to rent a furnished apartment (Currently SF) 🏡

@mscccc yeah roughly that but it can vary. sometimes we get a larger discount from the owners so we pass these savings on.
Kulveer and team are among the toughest in the Valley and property management has still been largely untouched. Most startups have tried to sell tech to existing property managers and that has gone about as well as selling to tech unsavvy taxi companies. So it is no wonder Zeus has turned out to be very successful by replacing them.
So much milkshake to drink up and this is going to be the team to do it. Easily one of the most dogged founding teams I've ever backed. All early indications point to this becoming a really special business.
Zeus is one of the most convenient and reliable property managers out there, period. I have nothing but amazing things to say about my experience with them. I recently moved from San Mateo to SF and didn't want to get in the process of signing a long-term lease, paying multiple application fee's, dealing with owners + landlords yada.. yada.. yada...
We've been fortunate enough to find an apartment that fit our budget + met our criteria in terms of location/bedrooms/style/etc.
The property manager they assign you to are always available to answer any questions, fix any problems/issues you run into with the place, etc. If you're in the Bay Area and looking for a short term -> longer term lease, but don't want to pay by the night for services like Airbnb, Zeus is definitely your go to. Couldn't recommend them enough.
@_shahedk's roommate here. 💯 percent agree with everything above. The communication has been stellar, really dig the space we're in, and Zeus made it ridiculously easy from end-to-end.
Big thanks to Kulveer and team! 🙌🏼🙏🏼
@_shahedk thank you!
Yeah, property management is an unsexy industry, with tons of operational complexity, that I don't think has done a good job for regular landlords (or tenants). We want to change that. Our model, to sign leases with owners directly, is unique (and risky!), but we think it aligns incentives correctly.
The goal: a network of Zeus apartments around the world in all the major cities so if you ever feel like spending the summer in Cape Town or winter in Tokyo, you don't have to think twice about booking with Zeus. Or, if you're just moving to a new city, we hope Zeus takes out some of the stress in the transition.
I'm excited about building a tenant app that allows you to report issues easily (no more phone calls!) and do other things like order groceries, order cleaning and pick up your laundry.
The idea is to build a brand here. You can trust that Zeus has vetted the property and will take care of you no matter what as a tenant, and as a landlord, that we'll look after your property and give you hassle free income.
I'm happy to answer questions from the PH fam!
Not only do I have the pleasure of living in a Zeus property with Shahed and Joe, I have also forwarded two of my friends who own property over to Kulveer and the Zeus team and have been hearing great things. Keep up the good work!
Interesting idea but not enough choices right now. I'm interested in getting a 1 bedroom loft for about $3,500/mo in or near SOHO/Mission Bay in the coming months. Any recommendations on where to look, or will you have more single bedroom places on Zeus then?
@codymclain hey Cody, sorry for the delayed response. Yeah a lot of the properties haven't been onboarded yet. If Bayview works, we have a sick bedroom with its own deck, lounge, bathroom and loft style bed coming up at $2300. Send an email to hello@zeusliving.com!
For all of you who want an easier way to showcase how insanely high rent prices in SF are nowadays. Jeez
Very thoughtful approach to creating a needed housing product and experience. Great name. Real revenue, and plenty of capital and a real business model. That will give them plenty of time to iterate the experience, and expand the selection. Predict: success.
This isn't the best interior design job for a show flat that I've seen, but I suppose it does a good enough job of showing people what kind of facilities are there and just how much space you're in for if you are interested in a flat in the area. I would have gone for more neutral tones and all that, but then again, I'm not that great of an interior designer myself...
