Why Trust StayLocal
Every listing, human-verified
No listing goes live without review: real photos in all four required categories, plausible pricing, consistent address, OTP-verified contact number, automated duplicate screening.
Genuinely available, enforced by software
Listings decay without confirmation: reminders at 14 days, ranking penalties at 21, automatic unlisting at 45. Stale inventory — the plague of rental portals — is systematically removed.
Fair search, disclosed promotions
Promoted listings are labelled FEATURED and hard-capped (max 2 per page; boosts capped at 10% of ranking score). Money cannot buy the top of every search.
Your data, your rights
DPDP-compliant consent, one-click data export, real account deletion, and a reachable Grievance Officer. See the Trust & Safety centre.
Accountable moderation
Reports reviewed within 48 hours; every moderation action is recorded in tamper-evident audit logs.
