Abstract : Home Rental Finding Platform is a smart and economical web platform to facilitate property search for rent. Built on the MERN (MongoDB, Express.js, React, Node.js) stack, the platform provides an easy, real-time experience to owners and tenants. The interface of the platform provides advanced search with filters, map-enabled interactive map navigation, and AI-based property suggestion based on user preference. Tenants are able to browse detailed property listings, book viewings, and contact landlords, whereas landlords are able to manage listings and tenant contact in a streamlined fashion. The system is secure with strong authentication and offers real-time feedback on the availability of property. By efficient use of new web technologies and intelligent automation, the site makes users more convenient, such that rental property searching is quicker, smarter, and simpler.

Keywords : Home Rental Platform, MERN Stack, Property Search, AI-Based Suggestions, Communication Among Tenants and Landlords, Real-Time Listings, Safe Authentication.
