Apartment Cash Rebate
Get up to $500 back when you rent through us
Our locator service is free. Apartment communities pay us a referral fee when you lease, and we share part of it with you: 10% of one month's rent, up to $500, paid to you in one payment.
Estimate your rebate
A quick estimate. We confirm your exact amount before you apply.
Estimate only. Terms apply.
How your rebate is calculated
Your rebate comes from the referral fee the community pays us. Three things decide it:
You get 10% of one month's base rent, up to a maximum of $500, paid in one payment.
Your lease must be at least 12 months. Shorter leases don't qualify for a rebate.
The community must work with locators and pay us a referral fee. We confirm this before you apply.
| Monthly rent | Your cash rebate (lease 12 months or above) |
|---|---|
| $1,000 | $100 |
| $1,500 | $150 |
| $2,000 | $200 |
| $2,500 | $250 |
Example estimates only, up to a maximum of $500. Your final amount is confirmed once the community pays its referral fee. See full terms.
💵 Cash rebate
Paid straight to you once your lease and move-in are verified.
🚚 Or a moving service
Prefer help with the move? Choose professional movers arranged by us instead of cash, worth the same as your rebate (up to $500).
How to qualify
Fill out our search form or call us before you visit or contact any community, so they know we referred you.
When the leasing office asks "How did you hear about us?", write AptLocatorPro. Without this, the community won't pay a referral fee and we can't pay a rebate.
The lease must be at a community we referred you to, and it must stay in good standing.
Use our claim form and upload your signed lease. It speeds up approval.
We pay your full rebate at once, not in installments, after the community pays our referral fee and we confirm you qualify. This usually takes 4–8 weeks after move-in.
Cash Rebate Terms & Conditions
Please read these before you tour. By claiming a rebate you agree to them.
- 1. Who can get a rebate. You must register with AptLocatorPro (through our website, chat or phone) before you visit, tour, call or apply at the community. The rebate is paid only to the person who registered, and that person must be named on the lease.
- 2. Tell the community we referred you. Write AptLocatorPro as your referral source on the community's guest card and on your rental application. If the community doesn't record us as your referral, they won't pay us a referral fee, and no rebate can be paid.
- 3. Qualifying lease. A new lease of 12 months or longer, at a community we referred you to, that pays referral fees to apartment locators. We'll confirm whether a community participates before you apply.
- 4. How the amount is calculated. Your rebate is 10% of one month's base rent, up to a maximum of $500 (for example, $1,500 rent earns a $150 rebate). Your lease must be 12 months or longer; shorter leases don't qualify and are never pro-rated. Base rent is the monthly rent on your lease, not counting utilities, parking, pet rent, fees or one-time specials.
- 5. Final amount. Any amount we quote before you sign is an estimate. The final rebate is confirmed after the community pays our referral fee. If the community pays a reduced fee or no fee, the rebate is reduced or not paid.
- 6. One rebate per lease. Only one rebate is paid per lease or apartment, even if several roommates are on the lease.
- 7. How to claim. Submit the claim form within 30 days of your move-in date, with a copy of your signed lease (the pages showing names, address, rent and lease term are enough). Claims submitted after 30 days may be declined.
- 8. When you get paid. We pay your rebate after the community has paid our referral fee and we've confirmed you qualify. This usually takes 4–8 weeks after move-in, but depends on when the community pays us. The full rebate is paid in one payment, not in installments, by check or electronic transfer to the person who registered.
- 9. Moving service instead of cash. You may choose a moving service instead of cash. Its value equals your rebate amount, up to $500. We arrange it, and any moving cost above that value is yours to pay. It can't be exchanged for cash later.
- 10. When a rebate is not paid. No rebate is paid if the lease is cancelled, broken or ends in eviction before we're paid, or if the community doesn't pay or takes back its referral fee.
- 11. Not eligible. Lease renewals; moves between communities owned or managed by the same company; subleases, roommate take-overs and lease assumptions; corporate, furnished or short-term leases under 12 months; homes, condos or duplexes rented from private owners; employees of the community or its management company; and communities that don't pay locator referral fees.
- 12. Taxes. You're responsible for any taxes that may apply to your rebate.
- 13. Fraud and changes. We can decline any claim that is false, incomplete, or doesn't meet these terms. We may change these terms at any time, but the terms in effect on the day you signed your lease apply to your rebate.
