The listing agency works for the owner, yet by market practice the tenant pays its commission: the agency controls access to the apartment, so the fee works like a toll.

Costs are estimates. Actual terms depend on negotiation with landlord/agent. Unitrank receives no part of any of these charges. · Calculated for a stay of 3 months

View on Mercado Libre

Pay a deposit or rent only once you are inside the apartment, with the keys in hand. A request to pay before you visit, especially crypto-only or into a personal account, is the most common rental scam.

Ask the Scout to check availability and conditions

Asking and an in-person viewing cost nothing.

You pay us nothing until you sign the lease.

The agency works for the listing. The Scout works for you.

Any agency commission is charged by the listing side, and going direct through the original listing does not remove it. We receive no part of it and never charge you for going direct. The Scout is optional renter-side support, paid only at signing. Who works for whom

Premium Scout, optional: one month of the rent you sign, only when you sign and only for a listing the Scout worked for you. One rule whichever apartment you choose.
