Our Story

Renting in Ann Arbor shouldn’t be confusing, frustrating, or a guessing game. But for too long, people looking for rentals in the area had to bounce between outdated websites, unreliable listings, and national platforms that didn’t understand the local market.

That’s where RentalsAnnArbor.com was born — out of the need for a smarter, more local, and more reliable way to find rentals in Ann Arbor.

Founded by Paul Mason LLC and powered by the knowledge and experience of The Faeth Team at Howard Hanna Ann Arbor, this site was created with one goal in mind:
Make it easy to find a real rental in Ann Arbor — and connect with a real local expert who can help.

We pull directly from the Greater Metropolitan Association of Realtors (GMAR) MLS, updating listings hourly using official IDX data. That means the rentals you see here are real, current, and ready to be rented — not outdated ads or “coming soon” placeholders.

But we didn’t stop at data. We built this platform to connect users with licensed Michigan real estate agents who live in and know the Ann Arbor market. Whether it’s your first apartment, your next home, or a short-term place while you’re transitioning, we’re here to help.

This isn’t a faceless rental site. It’s a local solution created by local professionals, and we’re proud to help people make their next move with confidence.
