An advertorially toned page on an unremarkable tech startup. Significant RS coverage to meet WP:NCORP / WP:CORPDEPTH not found. Article sources to routine finding news, passing mentions, WP:SPIP, and other sources otherwise not suitable for notability.
The one source that may look impressive (The New York Times) is based on an interview surrounding launch publicity, as in: "'This is one of the best times to be launching this site,” Mr. Lin said. “Renters know this is a renter’s market (...). So the stars have aligned for this to take off.' " The article also includes: "Whether RentHop is a workable business remains to be seen" suggesting it's WP:TOOSOON for an encyclopedia entry; the company has not achieved anything significant just yet.

- Delete. The NYT article is good evidence to show that it is not yet notable. DGG ( talk ) 05:49, 22 January 2018 (UTC)
