Pricing questions

What is a RentLow Credit?
A credit is a submission token. Every new renter gets 5 free credits. Each time you send your offer to a landlord, it costs 1 credit. This ensures landlords receive serious, committed applicants — not casual browsers. Buy 10 more for $4.99, or subscribe for unlimited.
Why does RentLow charge $99 per lead when others charge less?
Because we deliver something no one else does — a renter who has already completed their application, passed a soft credit check, had their income verified, and committed to a specific price. Competitors charge $35–$100 for a name and email. We charge $99 for a lease-ready tenant. The ROI is not comparable.
Can I use both the lead fee and success fee?
Yes — but not combined. You choose your model: pay $99 per lead delivered, or pay $750 only when a lease is signed. The success fee model has zero upfront cost but is only available for landlords with vacancy verification.
Is there a free trial for landlords?
Yes. Beta landlord partners get their first 30 days of the subscription plan free. No credit card required for the trial period.
Will RentLow stay free for renters?
Basic access — submitting offers, getting matched, receiving responses — is free forever. Premium features like unlimited submissions, offer boosting, and view tracking are optional upgrades at $4.99/mo.
About RentLow

We're flipping the rental market. For good.

For decades, renters have been at the mercy of landlords. You browse listings, fill out the same application twelve times, and hope someone picks you. We think that's backwards.

RentLow reverses the process. You name your price. You set your terms. Landlords compete for your business — the same model Priceline used to disrupt travel, applied to the $500B US apartment rental market.

We're starting in Houston, TX and building the most renter-friendly platform ever created.

The opportunity

Why now. Why RentLow.

44M+
US renter households
Nearly a third of all Americans rent — a massive market underserved by technology for decades.
$500B
Annual rental market
The US residential rental market processes over half a trillion dollars annually. Even 1% share is transformative.
0
Direct competitors
No platform lets renters name their price and receive competing landlord offers. The market is wide open.

"Every renter deserves to name their price and have landlords compete for their business. We built RentLow to make that the standard — not the exception."

— Piran & PJ, Co-Founders · RentLow Inc.

Privacy Policy

Effective date: April 9, 2026  ·  RentLow Inc., Houston, TX

1. Information we collect

Information you provide: When you create an offer on RentLow, we collect your name, email address, phone number, employment information, income details, and rental preferences.

Credit information: With your explicit consent, we perform a soft credit inquiry through our credit bureau partner (Experian). This soft pull does not affect your credit score and is not visible to other lenders. We collect your credit score band, payment history summary, and debt-to-income indicators.

Usage data: We collect information about how you interact with the RentLow platform, including pages visited, search queries, and offer submissions.

2. How we use your information

We use your information to:

  • Match your rental offer with qualifying apartment complexes
  • Route your pre-qualified lead package to matched landlords
  • Communicate with you about offer responses and matches
  • Improve our matching algorithm and platform
  • Comply with legal obligations including FCRA requirements

3. FCRA compliance

RentLow complies fully with the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). We only perform soft credit inquiries, which require your written consent and do not affect your credit score. You have the right to dispute any inaccurate information and to request disclosure of information held about you.

4. Information sharing

We share your pre-qualification summary — credit score band, income verification status, and application completeness — only with apartment complexes that match your offer criteria. We do not sell your personal data to third parties. We do not share your full SSN, full credit report, or financial account details with landlords.

5. Fair Housing Act

RentLow complies with the Fair Housing Act. Our matching algorithm does not use race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status, or disability as matching criteria. All renters are matched solely on price proximity, location, unit requirements, credit profile, and availability.

6. Data security

All personal data is encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption and in transit using TLS 1.3. Credit data and PII are stored in isolated, access-controlled database partitions. We conduct regular security audits.

7. Your rights

You have the right to: access your data, correct inaccurate data, delete your account, withdraw consent for credit inquiries, and opt out of marketing communications. Contact us at [email protected].

By submitting an offer, you authorize RentLow to obtain a consumer credit report for the purpose of evaluating your rental application. This is a soft inquiry and does not affect your credit score. You have rights under the FCRA including the right to know if your application was adversely affected by credit information.

RentLow is free for renters. Landlords are charged a lead fee of $49 per qualified lead delivered. All fees are non-refundable once a lead has been delivered and viewed.
