How It Works
Over the
last fifteen years, Rentometer has methodically built a
sophisticated rental data system encompassing
collections, data staging, and analysis. Our ongoing
process collects and analyzes approximately ten million
rental records annually and we continuously aggregate
active listings from a variety of publicly available
sites.
To ensure quality and accuracy for real estate
professionals, every single record is processed through
our proprietary, state-of-the-art data staging system.
Our Backstory
Rentometer has been collecting, analyzing, and delivering rent reports since 2006.
By 2012, Rentometer had built interest from the market, but was in need of a fresh
start. Thatβs when Michael Lapsley and Torrence Harder stepped in. With their combined
backgrounds as proptech executives and investors, they recognized an opportunity to
build a new business serving real estate professionals and renters alike.

With a seasoned proptech management team, an infusion of new capital, and all of the
original Rentometer technology, Rentometer as we now know it was born. This new venture
was established to provide the best rental data and information to renters and real
estate professionals. With the help of our hard-working and dedicated team, we strive
each day to make that vision a reality.
