Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about rent assistance

How does Rently's rent assistance work?

Rently pays your annual rent directly to your landlord upfront, allowing you to move in immediately. You then repay Rently in convenient monthly installments that include a small service fee. This eliminates the need for large lump sum payments or multiple post-dated cheques, making the rental process in the UAE more manageable and budget-friendly.

Do landlords accept Rently's payment method?

Yes, landlords readily accept Rently's payment method because they receive their full annual rent upfront or in up to 6 cheques as per their preference. This arrangement provides landlords with their desired payment schedule while giving you the flexibility to pay monthly. Rently handles all communication with the landlord regarding the payment process to ensure a smooth transaction.

How much is the service fee for Rently's assistance?

Rently charges a small service fee that's included in your monthly installments. The exact fee amount is calculated based on your specific rental agreement and lease terms. Before finalizing your agreement with Rently, you'll receive full transparency on all costs involved, with no hidden charges, allowing you to make an informed decision about your rent assistance plan.

Can Rently help with my security deposit too?

Yes, Rently can also cover your security deposit in addition to your annual rent. This means you can split your security deposit into manageable monthly installments instead of paying it as a lump sum upfront. At the end of your lease, you'll receive the full deposit back from your landlord according to the terms of your lease agreement.

Is Rently's rent assistance available throughout the UAE?

Rently's rent assistance service is available to tenants throughout the UAE. The service is designed to address the unique rental market conditions in the UAE, where annual upfront payments are common.
