RDNY.com Answers Your Apartment Rental Concerns
The top 6 questions about our NY Apartment and New Jersey Apartment rental service taken from a poll of 400 customers.
"No fee" is a term we use in the New York City rental business to indicate that we don't charge a Broker's fee for an apartment. In New York, before the internet, the only way to find an apartment was to use a Broker who will then charge you a fee equal to about 2 month's rent. A Broker acts as the go-between you and the landlord.
RDNY.com changed the rental business by helping renters to skip the Broker and skip the Broker's fee. We provide the same information about apartment vacancies that Brokers know so that you can find your new apartment on your own. In addition, we offer many aids that a Broker would never share with you:
- 24/7 access on the RDNY.com website so you can always see the changing list of apartment vacancies that fit your search needs
- Expert RDNYAdvisors who can help tailor your search so you can focus on just the apartments that will suit you and your budget
- Customer Support Department that will answer your questions and help you modify your search at any time
- Constant e-mails to let you know instantly when we have a new vacancy that fits your search needs
- Maps, subway information, photographs of buildings and neighborhood panoramas on most of the apartment listings
The service charge also insures that you have access to expert RDNYAdvisors to help on any real estate and rental related questions you may have.
For all this help, we charge a one-time membership fee. You won't ever be all alone when you use RDNY.com.
Yes, we've seen those other "no fee" sites. We have been in the New York apartment rental business for over 25 years,
and we know many of the people who own those other sites. We know that some are run by Brokers who list apartments that are too good to be true so you'll call and they can con you into paying a Broker's fee. (Remember: anything that's too good to be true can't be trusted.)
Some of those sites are run by people who never update their vacancies or never verify the information they get from public sources.
At RDNY.com, we have business relationships going back 25 years with small, special landlords as well as with the big landlords. We have a full-time Listings Department who call over 2000 landlords every week to update vacancies and who verify the accuracy of the apartment information.
These landlords own over 5000 apartments in 120 neighborhoods in the city, Westchester, and North New Jersey. RDNY.com prides itself in having the most current, reliable, and valuable listings of any NYC rental business.

RDNY.com is the largest source of no-fee rental apartments in the New York metro area and most of our members find their new home in about two weeks after joining.
Your membership is good for 60 days in case you have special circumstances that might take you longer than 2 weeks to find an apartment: for example, are you a student with no income? Do you have a bad credit history? Do you have a big dog? Do you have several roommates?
That's why we have expert RDNYAdvisors and a Customer Support Department who can help you with your search strategy, and why we offer the 7-part eBook "The Essential Guide for Smart Renters", and why we have the online
"Guide for Renting an Apartment" filled with tips to help you be successful.
However, your success is totally up to you. RDNY.com doesn't own any of the apartments we list so we do not control a landlord's decision about your application to rent an apartment. No one, not even a Broker, can guarantee that you will be able to find the apartment of your dreams.
