With Move Bay Area's help, I was able to find a new apartment in one trip up to San Francisco! I absolutely love my new home and I so happy that I chose Move Bay Area to help me find it. I relied heavily and Lisa's knowledge of the neighborhoods and to get a picture of what my commute would be like.
