Bringing back the village feeling.
Nabo is the free app for neighbors to buy, sell, lend, swap, and give things away — with people who actually live near you, not strangers across town.
What you can do on Nabo
Four simple ways to be a better neighbor — all within about a mile of home.
Give it away
Post what you don't need, or grab something a neighbor is giving away.
Buy & sell
Sell what you don't need, buy from people who actually live near you.
Borrow & lend
Borrow the ladder, lend the drill — no need to own everything.
Just ask
Ask your street for what you're looking for.
Built to feel safe, not just social.
Every detail is designed around one idea: it should always be real neighbors, never strangers.
GPS-verified
You can't fake your location. Nabo confirms exactly where you live before you can join.
Neighborhood-only
You only see people who live within about a mile of you — not the whole city.
Locked behind Apple Sign-In
No anonymous accounts, no bots, zero scammers — just real people who actually live around you.
Why not just use Marketplace or Buy Nothing?
Nabo does one thing, and does it without the noise.
Made by neighbors, for neighbors.
We're a couple in San Diego who built Nabo because we wanted our own street to feel like a village again — a place where you actually know the names of the people next door, where borrowing a ladder or giving away a couch doesn't mean scrolling through strangers on some giant app. Just neighbors, looking out for neighbors.
Free forever. No subscriptions, no fees.
Download Nabo and meet the neighbors who were there all along.
