@jason_howerton Come on @OpenRent : time to start #OpenBuy

I honestly can’t believe realtors still exist in 2026. Every property I’ve ever bought, I found on my own, I determined my offer etc. the realtor is a glorified assistant for any non-first time buyer. So how is there not a platform that allows for the selling, buying, paperwork generation to cut them out of the process for those who don’t think 6% of sales price is equivalent to the value they offer? Same real estate regulations would apply to the real estate platform. Make Facebook marketplace for property. Have professionals on deck to assist customers through process but don’t charge $50k to basically talk to the seller. What am I missing here? Real estate feels like it’s light years behind the times

Our chief morale officer is suited up and ready for the festive break! 🎅🐾 Wishing you a very Merry Christmas from everyone at OpenRent! A big thank you to the over 8 million landlords and tenants who have trusted us to let and find homes. 🏡✨

Hi Robert, thank you for getting in touch. I am sorry to hear you have had trouble logging in. We work a little differently to traditional high street agents – we are a platform where landlords manage their own viewings, so we cannot arrange this for you directly here. To view the flat in Barmouth you're interested in, please use the "Message Landlord or Request Viewing" button on the advert to contact them directly. This guide explains how to find a property using our platform in detail: help.openrent.co.uk/hc/en-gb/artic… Best of luck with your search!

@OpenRent I have failed to log on to your site advertising a flat for rent in Barmouth, North wales. I would be interested in viewing the flat if you can arrange that. robert neil francis

Someone has snapped this up just in time for Christmas! 🎄✨ Now all it needs is a sprinkling of snow to complete that perfect Christmas card scene . 🧦 Beams strong enough for all the stockings 🎄 Ceilings high enough for a 12ft tree 🍽️ A table long enough to seat even the most distant cousins

A bit of festive cheer from the OpenRent office 💙✨
