Furnish it: ≈ US$ 2,204 plus your own time shopping and assembling, one time. An estimate, not a payment: we use it to compare furnished and unfurnished listings on equal terms.

The listing states this building fee but never says whether the rent includes it. By market practice the tenant pays it, so we have counted it. Worth confirming before you sign.

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. On long-term CABA leases, Ley 5859 assigns this commission to the owner; where a listing charges the tenant anyway, we show what you would actually pay.

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 24 months

Caución insurance guarantee required.

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 get it for you

Asking and an in-person viewing cost nothing.

You pay us nothing until you have the keys.

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.
