How Reward Listings Work: Reward Listings are ads for which MetroRent receives a commission when a MetroRent tenant signs a lease and moves into a unit. MetroRent pays part of the commission it receives from landlords to the tenant who moves into the unit.

What are the criteria to receive $100 for a Reward Listing?

• Register with MetroRent;
• View a Reward Listing on MetroRent (which MetroRent must be able to confirm);
• View the Reward Listing on MetroRent before you contact the landlord for the first time;
• Inform the landlord upon your initial contact with him/her that you found the listing on MetroRent;
• View the Reward Listing on MetroRent before you sign the lease;
• Sign a lease under your name;
• Move in to the unit; and
• Submit your Reward request no later than 30 days after moving in.

Who is not eligible to receive $100 for a Reward Listing?

• Current tenants in the building;
• Current / former tenants of the landlord advertising the vacancy;
• Current tenants of the property management company advertising the vacancy;
• If anyone on your lease meets the criteria above, you are not eligible to receive the $100.

What if the landlord says I called from another source?

• It's in your best interest to make sure you tell the landlord right away that you found his/her place on MetroRent. If you found a place using a service or person other than MetroRent, you're not eligible for the $100 reward since MetroRent only earns a commission that we can share if you find the place through us.

MetroRent lets you sort your listings according to what's most important to you. After you've joined MetroRent, simply go to your personal home page by logging in with your e-mail address and password. Then rate your listings by assigning value to particular amenities (hardwood floors, a dishwasher, a view etc) in your dream home or to particular characteristics (gender, sexual orientation etc) in your dream housemates. This will sort your listings so the ones that best meet your needs show up first on your list, and you can schedule appointments accordingly.
