Start-up Apartment List is aiming to change the way you rent online. The company just closed a $50 million funding round. Co-Founders John Kobs and Chris Erickson explain how they are using this funding to expand its existing business. "We actually think that rentals is the next category to have a moment," said Kobs. "We really want to focus on giving more options to our renters." In 2017, Apartment List doubled the amount of leases signed on its platform. The company is using its new funding do double its headcount in the year ahead.
