About RentZed

RentZed.com lets tenants anonymously post and view their past or current rents by address

I built RentZed because I am a tenant at an apartment complex and was curious if my neighbors were paying the same or less in rent than me. I also wanted to know how much the rent was increasing over time. I noticed that apartment complexes sometimes charge new tenants more than old tenants and sometimes the other way around. I ask everyone to contribute their rent history, especially if it's somewhere they no longer live. It could help tenants negotiate rents and evaluate whether landlords are likely to raise rents. I'd also appreciate anyone sharing the site around since it could have more impact the more people that add their submission to it.

As of 4/28/24 there are submissions for 3000+ addresses

I will add a Map View in the future. For now, I am focusing on getting more submissions to RentZed. Help me get the submissions and I'll get to work on the map view :)

What happenned to me on Reddit and TikTok: On Reddit, I made a new account in order to share RentZed because my other 2 accounts were known by people I know and I like anonymity. I made a couple posts about RentZed in a few subreddits: r/Miami and maybe 2 more and then I did one in r/InternetIsBeautiful (I really liked that sub). The post got Reddit Gold, 1k upvotes, and 100k views in like 6 hours (I still have the screenshot). Apparently, there is a 90/10 rule which I broke so the mods perma banned me from the sub (I have screenshot proof). Ummm, no 2nd chance? and also, that rule is so easy to get around. Just thinking about it triggers me into oblivion. And for TikTok, I really like the app and I've done over 20k posts on that app over hundreds of different accounts but for the past year (today is 5/3/24) I haven't noticed my videos getting more views even if they get really good engagement. I still get like mostly 200-300 views, sometimes a bit more on my videos. Idk how TikTok algo works. I swear I feel like I'm shadowbanned. Idk what the heck happenned. My luck on social media has been beyond terrible to say the least. In a sense, it's maybe a good thing though because I've had more time to develop RentZed.

What you can do to help me out: Make a TikTok about my story and RentZed. I'm sure it could go viral pretty easily if several people made videos about it. Make a post on r/InternetIsBeautiful about RentZed. You may get permabanned from the sub and from posting/upvoting/commenting on Reddit for it, but idk, maybe you are willing to do it or don't ever post on there. I swear, all it takes for RentZed to go viral is one post on that subreddit. I'm so sad because I'm permabanned from that sub. Imagine being permabanned from the one place you know could change everything. Anyways, thanks.
