Each platform sees a different slice of the market. Some skew toward apartment buildings, others include more private rentals or houses. Timing also matters depending on what’s actively available.
Why does Facebook Marketplace sometimes look cheaper (or more expensive)?
Marketplace is a live stream of active ads. Some months it’s heavier on private rentals and older units, other months it’s stacked with renovated listings. That’s why this page uses more than one source and shows a blend.
