How RentGuard pays the bills.
The short version: partner referrals today, planned paid tools later, and no money from landlords to change or hide reports.
Affiliate disclosure
RentGuard may earn affiliate commissions from partner links, including renters insurance, moving, or moving-concierge providers. We disclose this relationship before click-through and on the "How we make money" page.
Affiliate partners cannot pay to change a building report, remove a source, alter a score, soften a finding, hide a public record, or influence whether a building appears in search results. RentGuard does not accept payment from landlords, owners, property managers, or brokers to change report content.
Once a user leaves RentGuard for a partner site, the partner's terms, pricing, privacy policy, eligibility rules, and customer support govern that relationship.
Partners we earn from
Each link below opens a disclosure modal first, logs the click for our own reporting, and then opens the partner site in a new tab.
Planned products
Lease Review, Search Pass, saved-building notifications, and law-firm workflows are not live in the current beta. We may test those ideas later, but there is no paid purchase flow, subscription, or client portal today.
What we don’t take money from
Editorial independence
RentGuard reports are generated from public NYC datasets and a small AI summary model. No partner sees the report before it’s rendered. No partner can pay to change a violation count, soften a finding, or remove a building from the watchlist surface. If you spot a partner-influenced problem, email us.
