Where do I live?

Five years ago I moved from Thailand to Boston for grad school, and finding a home from across the world was the hardest part of the whole move. Now I help newcomers land theirs, housing search, airport pickup, and move-in setup, all before you arrive.

"I built the support I wish I had."

"It was a really great experience for me. This company makes my life easier. I didn’t have to go there, but there was someone who could go looking and helping me out with the housing. Before i came to US, i was quite worry about the place and area i would like to live. I had a lot of concerns. However, the agency helped me out and recommended me pretty good. They gave me suggestion and house reviewing which pretty helpful. I really appreciate that."

One bad lease can cost you $8,000.
Here's what going in blind actually costs.
$1,500+
The flight you don't have to take
Round trip flight, hotel, time off work, before you've seen one apartment.
1 month
The deposit you don't risk
Signing from photos alone risks a unit that looks nothing like the listing.
30+ hrs
The ten tabs you don't have to open
Listings, scam checks, neighborhood research, landlord emails. We take it off your plate.
Local
Someone who has made this exact move
I moved from Thailand to Boston myself. Every tour is run by a licensed local pro.
Common questions
Do you actually go to the apartment in person?

Yes. Every tour is done in person by me or a licensed local partner, never a screenshot of the listing. You get video, condition notes, and honest context on the building and the street.

What if none of the apartments work for me?

Add-on tours are $149 per additional unit with no cap, and your package stays valid for 60 days. Most clients find their place within the tours included in their package.

Are you a broker? Will I pay broker fees?

You pay The Nest Ally a flat fee, and we work for you, not the landlord. Any broker or landlord fee charged by the property is separate, and we tell you about it before you commit to anything.

Can I be on the tour live?

Yes, with The Nest Concierge. It includes a live video walkthrough where you can ask questions in real time. Live tours depend on the current tenant's availability and are scheduled during Boston business hours, roughly 9am to 6pm ET, Monday to Friday.

How far ahead should I book?

At least two weeks before your move-in date. Boston's rental market moves fast in the summer, so earlier is always better if your dates are already set.
