What renters are saying
โFound a clause that would have let my landlord keep my entire $2,400 deposit for any reason. Negotiated it out before signing.โ

โI'm not a lawyer so I don't know what I'm agreeing to. ReadYourLease explained every section in plain English and flagged two sketchy clauses.โ

โTold me my lease had an illegal no-notice-entry clause. When I asked my landlord to remove it they did โ apparently they 'forgot' it was in there.โ
