We are Lovely.

We are a passionate 9 person startup operating out of a live/work loft in San Francisco, California.

We know from personal experience just how painful it can be to rent an apartment, and we think it should be faster, easier, and more transparent. So we created Lovely, a real rental marketplace that helps renters find the homes they want and helps property owners and managers find the renters they want.
