Proud (and a bit surreal) to see Renter Rated featured in the news.

This platform started from a pretty frustrating rental experience and it’s now about helping others avoid the same thing.

Real renters. Real homes. Real insights.

Today’s inspection was a joke.

Polished photos. Different reality.

No power. Phone torches required to inspect due to no power. Razor left on the toilet floor. An impatient, dismissive agent.

And renters are expected to make a serious life decision based on that?

Have you had an inspection that looked nothing like the listing?

Just walked out of a rental inspection? … it looked great?

But you only see it for 10 minutes.
You’ve got no idea what it’s actually like to live there day to day.

That’s why I started Renter Rated.

Real renters. Real homes. Real insights.

Fresh paint in one patch only? Sometimes it’s nothing. Sometimes it’s covering damp, cracks or past water damage. Always look beyond the surface at an inspection. Save this for later. What’s the biggest red flag you’ve spotted in a rental?

Meet Tony.
He’s a possum. He’s loud. He lives rent free.
He’s the unofficial mascot of Renter Rated the new platform helping renters share real stories about real homes.

If you’ve ever moved into a place and discovered a “Tony” of your own… you’ll get why we’re doing this.
