Our Story
Smart City started in 2013 as a small apartment locating service in Dallas, Texas. In the early days, our founder and CEO Cassie Brown just wanted to help her friends find great places to live, but her innate drive to offer an amazing client experience quickly set Smart City apart from the competition. Since then, Smart City has taken big strides to disrupt the real estate industry by choosing what’s right over what’s profitable. We are growing rapidly, with services available in major metro areas across three states. And, as always, our goal is to always put you—our customer—first.
Our Purpose
When Smart City was first founded, our goal was “to become the most trusted, most referred, and most utilized resource among renters in Texas.” We’ve broadened our scope considerably as our business has grown, but those basic ideals still remain. In short, Smart City is here to find you a space where you can be yourself.
Our People
At Smart City, we’re an eclectic (and growing) team of thinkers, creators, and doers who are passionate about hooking people up with the apartments of their dreams. That’s why, for us, it isn’t enough to simply provide our clients with a list of available rentals. We want to build a connection with each and every customer. We want to take the chore out of apartment hunting so you can actually enjoy the search. And we want to work with you all along the way—from search to application to move-in—to make sure you end up in a space that you truly love.
Finding You a Space in San Antonio Where You Can Be Yourself
For most folks, apartment hunting in San Antonio can be a bit of a grind. But not for us. We’re downright passionate about it! That’s why we always strive to go above and beyond, to do more than simply provide you with a list of available units. We want to build a personal connection with you and find out your wants and needs so we can find the apartment that you’re going to fall in love with.
We’re Smart City – San Antonio, and we’re here to find you a space where you can be yourself.
