SublyMatchmaking for NYCApartments & Sublets

We verify listings through our onboarding process and use pattern detection to flag suspicious activity. Our warm introduction system means both parties have context before connecting, and we track all conversations to ensure accountability. While no system is perfect, our matching approach significantly reduces exposure to bad actors compared to open marketplaces.

Subly is completely free for renters. We make money from lender subscriptions, not from renters or transaction fees. You'll never pay to use our matching service.

For $10/month (free for waitlist members!), lenders get unlimited listing posts, pre-qualified renter leads, automated follow-ups and nudges, an interest tracking dashboard, and priority WhatsApp support. We also offer a Pay As You Go option at $1 per match. No transaction fees, no hidden costs. Cancel anytime.

We're launching with coverage across all five boroughs of NYC—Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. We're especially active in high-demand neighborhoods like the East Village, Williamsburg, Bushwick, UWS/UES, and Astoria. Expanding to other cities soon.

When a renter requests an introduction, Subly creates a WhatsApp group with both parties and provides context—renter preferences, listing details, and fit score. This gives both sides a head start and makes the conversation more productive than cold outreach.

Yes. We only share relevant details with your explicit consent during the introduction process. Your contact information is never sold or shared with third parties. We use your preferences solely to improve matches.

Subly is designed for both short-term sublets (1-6 months) and longer-term rentals. During onboarding, you'll specify your timeline and we'll match you accordingly.

No! Subly works entirely through WhatsApp—the app you already use. No downloads, no new logins, no learning curve. Just message us and we'll guide you through the rest.
