How RentGuard pays the bills.

The short version: a few partner referrals, a paid lease-review tool (coming soon), and a $14.99/mo Search Pass for power users. We never take money from landlords.

Affiliate disclosure

RentGuard may earn a referral fee if you purchase a product or service from a partner link. This does not affect the editorial independence of our building reports. Partner recommendations are not endorsements.

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.

What we don’t take money from

Landlords or property managers (we don’t take payment to suppress, hide, or soften any record).

Brokers — outside our B2B law-firm program, where the customer is the firm, not the listing.

Advertisers (no banner ads, no sponsored content in the report itself).

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.
