Frequently Asked Questions
What is an apartment locating service?
An apartment locating service is a professional service that helps individuals find suitable rental
apartments based on their preferences, needs, and budget. We assist you in navigating the rental
market and identifying options that align with your requirements.
How does your apartment locating service work?
Our service starts with you telling us your preferences, your monthly rental, budget, your move-in date, your desired location(s), and any negative rental or criminal history, and any requirements via the Online Form Tab on this website. Our team then utilizes our extensive database and industry
connections to identify apartments that match your criteria. We provide you with a curated list of
options to consider and can also help with scheduling property tours.
How do you offer a free service?
The service is free for you. The apartment complex you sign with pays us out of their marketing budget. Each apartment complex has a marketing budget, from that, they pay locators and once we receive payment, then we are able to pay you and donate to charity.
Why should I use an apartment locator service?
When you choose RentRG, you can rest easy knowing you’ll find the perfect apartment. Our team is
local and has knowledge of the area and the market. Our free apartment locating service will make your search easier and less stressful, and you may also be eligible for a rebate.
You mentioned that you pay “up to” $150 rebate, and $150 towards charity; how do you determine the amount you pay your clients and to charity?
We pay you based on how much the apartment complex is paying us. We pay up to 10% of what we
receive towards your rebate, and up to 10% towards a charity. If the complex does not pay us, or if you do not put Rent RG as your locating service, then we will not be able to make a donation or rebate. Simply put, we share the money we make.
What areas do you cover?
We provide apartment locating services in Houston, TX and the surrounding areas. Our database
includes a wide range of apartments in various neighborhoods, ensuring that we can cater to your
desired location.
Can you help me find apartments that allow pets?
Absolutely! We understand the importance of finding pet-friendly apartments. Just let us know your pet details, and we will include this criterion in our search.
What if I have specific requirements for my apartment?
We are here to cater to your specific needs. Whether your looking for certain amenities, specific floor plans, or anything else, we can customize our search to find apartments that meet your requirements.
Will you arrange property tours for me?
Yes, we can help you schedule property tours for the apartments your interested in. We work with your availability to ensure you can visit the properties that pique your interest.
How long does it usually take to find apartments using your service?
To start your apartment search, we’ll need information about your budget, preferred location, desired amenities, number of bedrooms, and any other specific requirements you have (by filling out the online form). The more details you provide, the better we can tailor our search.
How soon should I start my apartment search?
Most apartment communities are on a 60-day notice, so you should plan on looking two months ahead of your move-in date. You can start earlier than that, but you may miss out on look and lease specials. Waiting too long can be stressful and put you in a time crunch.
What if I have questions during or after the apartment search process?
We’re here to support you throughout the entire process. Feel free to reach out to us via phone or email if you have any questions or need further assistance. Your satisfaction is our priority.
Can you also help with lease negotiations?
While our primary focus is on helping you find the right apartment, we can offer general guidance on lease negotiations. However, for legal and contractual matters, we recommend seeking advice from legal professionals.
How do I get started with your apartment locating service?
Getting started is easy! Simply fill out the Online Form. We’ll set up an initial consultation to understand your requirements and begin the search process.
