Leasing flow on another site

Apply and pay-rent links that go to a leasing platform, so that flow wasn’t checked. Lookful suggests what to ask the vendor for.

Could not check

Lookful recognizes common leasing platforms and widgets, including Yardi RentCafe, Entrata, RealPage, G5, Engrain SightMap, Matterport, EliseAI, Knock, Funnel and Rently, and attributes issues inside them to the vendor. It also suggests what to ask a vendor for when a flow lives on their site.

Fee transparency insights

Get insight into your fee transparency situation. Lookful reads how each page presents rent and fees, including inside leasing widgets, and shows where a listing may leave out mandatory fees.

All-in pricing means showing the total monthly price, including mandatory fees, wherever rent is advertised. It’s the practice the FTC’s 2025 order against Greystar set out, and several states now have total-price rules of their own.

Six fee checks
CheckWhat it looks for
Rent without the total monthly priceRent is advertised without a total that includes mandatory fees.
“Additional fees may apply”Fine print that says fees exist without saying which or how much.
Fees without amountsFees named without an amount or how it’s worked out.
Required or optionalFees listed without saying which are required.
Specials against base rentSpecials stated only against base rent, with no total or net price.
No fees before ApplyRent and an Apply button, but no fees on the page or linked from it.

The evidence, quoted

Each finding quotes the rent, fee or fine print it’s about, so you can find and fix it, and keep a record of what changed.

State rules, for reference

Lookful reads the property’s state from its address. Where we’ve checked a state’s rule against its source, it’s shown with the citation and date, for you to review with counsel.

Insight, not a verdict

Fee findings never change your risk score and never say a listing is or isn’t legal. They show how your pages compare with all-in pricing practice.

Not legal advice. Fee transparency insights help you review your listings. They don’t determine whether a site complies with any law; check the rules that apply to your properties with counsel.
