Street Scout

Hi Product Hunt 👋 I’m Kwame, founder of Street Scout. The rental market has a leverage problem. Landlords negotiate at scale; renters negotiate alone — so even highly qualified people often end up on “retail terms.” Developers have the mirror-image problem: they invest millions, then hit a risky lease-up window with no guaranteed demand. Street Scout fixes both sides by organizing demand. We let renters join private reserve pools around specific buildings and timelines, so they can negotiate as a group (think “group buying,” not a solo search). We trade volume for value: • For renters: better terms and concessions usually reserved for corporate relocations. • For developers/owners: earlier, more predictable occupancy by delivering a batch of verified, ready-to-lease renters during lease-up. Net: we turn a 1-to-1 negotiation into a B2B efficiency play. Question for you: Would “group leverage” be enough for you to reserve a unit 3–6 months in advance if (a) the building is vetted and (b) you can exit with a clear policy? • Yes, I’d do it if ______ • No, because ______ I’d love feedback on the mechanics (and what would make this feel trustworthy).
