Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

This was our first time using Snug and the experience was very positive. The platform was clear, user-friendly, and easy to navigate. We particularly valued the notifications, which kept us informed throughout the application process. After our application was successful, we also found the additional support offered, such as assistance with organising moving and cleaning services, extremely helpful. We would be more than happy to use Snug again in the future.

Was completing an application with my flatmate who has his own password on his own computer using his own profile snug has decided to join our profiles eliminating some of my information and combining his into my account. There appears to be no way to untangle this situation. Real estate agents are unable to view either of our complete profiles and applications. The app is complete shit.

Frustrating Rental Application Experience on Snug.com

Applying for a rental through snug.com was honestly quite frustrating. The whole process felt longer and more complicated than it needed to be, with too many steps that didn’t always make sense. The data checks don’t seem very reliable either-I ran into a few issues where things weren’t validated properly, which just added to the confusion. On top of that, the site can be glitchy at times, and I had to redo parts of my application more than once.
Overall, it wasn’t a smooth experience and felt quite poorly put together.

Snug has been very supportive

Snug has been very supportive, very good communication and always doing their best. My partner and I have recently been approved for a place we now call home and it’s all thanks to Snug. I would definitely recommend going through Snug if you’re wanting a place to call home.

Terrible user experience

Terrible user experience on their website. Displays errors, and greys out application form sections without telling you why. Plain refuses to work unless you install Chrome, and even then you have to brute force clear cache reload every two minutes.

Entire process took two hours, where 2Apply (once setup) took 2 minutes. This sort of application should be streamlining the process, yet because of UX design choices, it was longer than if I had written the whole application from scratch, instead of it using my stored data.

I had a great experience with Snug. The platform is very easy to use and made the application process straightforward and efficient. Everything was well organised, and I appreciated how clear and transparent the steps were throughout.

Communication was prompt, and I always felt informed about the progress of my application. It really took the stress out of finding and applying for a rental.

Overall, a very reliable and user-friendly service. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a simple and efficient rental application process.

Unsafe and inpersonal

My daughter is searching for properties in VIC. I recently received a txt message from Snug with a link.
Digital security clearly stipulates not to click on links from unknown sources!!! So Snug why do you do this?
Then when I did click the link (In secure mode) to complete the lengthy reference; at not point is the agent or requesting party identified!! No names no contact details no agent!
The form is meant for people with previous rental experience. My daughter is a first time renter and many questions asked on this form do not apply to her situation but nobody at Snug thought of that!!
At the end of the form are the obligatory acceptance paragraphs but these are not readable because the text overlaps itself several times due to a faulty style sheet!!!! This form has clearly not been tested!!!!
How did we get to this point where a real estate agent chooses such a platform???
You couldn't get any more impersonal if you tried! I find Snug completely unacceptable and refuse to use this platform!!!
Just more sh*t to put up with in Australian real estate!

Hi Glesti, thanks for your comment & we're sorry to hear you had this experience on Snug. Please private message us or kindly visit snug.com/help so we can investigate and resolve any issues you may have encountered. Snug takes data security very seriously and follows best practices and industry standards around SMS which include links. In relation to the rental reference request, the agency is not shown as the rental applicant is gathering references on their profile before applying and the prospective agent is not known. We'll check the format overlay of text on all devices and browser settings.

Built to leverage off peoples needs

Great for agents but terrible for applicants. The whole system is not built with the end user in mind, the hassle to go through all the steps with the amount of coordination required from all party is ridiculous. As a student applicant, you literally need your university to approve every application; how realistic is that? Why would be even be necessary?

In short, this platform allows lazy real estates agent to leverages off the applicants need for rentals through its ridiculous ask and needs. The coordination and effort required for a single application is just as good as building a million dollar business and buying your own house.

Terrible system.
