San Francisco – Trove Market (www.usetrove.com), the startup that’s making it safer and easier to buy and sell quality items from your neighbors, with a focus on interior design and face-­to-­face sales, is now available to communities around the country! Trove Market is available on iTunes, Google Play, and on the web at http://download.usetrove.com.

The Trove team knows better than most what you go through when you buy and sell locally, and its founders are set on helping you do so without some of the common frustrations. Trove Co­founder Xing Wang has appeared in Apartment Therapy twice for his knack for furnishing with vintage and secondhand goods. Per Wang, “Secondhand goods have much more character than things you find at big box stores! I love finding something timeless and unique in vintage stores. My inspiration for Trove came when I moved back to San Francisco in 2013 and couldn’t believe Craigslist was still the most likely place to find pieces for my condo. That year, I started work on Trove, and recruited our team in mid 2014.”

The team has personal experience buying and selling locally, and in the past has grown to know firsthand the typical lack of trust, accountability, and safety when using other marketplaces. In the trenches of San Francisco, Trove is working hard to bring a better experience to communities around the country.

That experience includes:

• Powerful search, making it easy to find just what you’re looking for.
• Scheduling features, making it easy to find a mutual time and set a place to meet.
• Offer management, with automated emails and a messaging inbox to keep conversations organized and all parties informed as offers are made and received.
• Credit card and Venmo payments, to eliminate last minute haggling and safety concerns. Download Trove Market today (http://download.usetrove.com) and invite your community to start buying and selling in the safest and easiest local marketplace!
