Deceptive practices, rude and a waste of money
The $100 signup fee gets you the same rental listings you can find for free on Craigslist... because that's where they copy them from. But they don't remove outdated listings or check if rentals are still available, so you still have to do all the legwork yourself. A giant waste of time, effort and $100.
If you complain about the service or their practice of reselling free & outdated content, you will be treated rudely and refused a refund.
They also spam Craigslist relentlessly with fake cheap rentals to lure you in, without mentioning their company name. Probably because their reputation is so bad now... check other reviews on the internet and you'll see what I mean. I wish I had heeded those instead of throwing $100 away on Rental Guide.
Great place if you have pets!
Had such a hard time looking for a place for me and my large dog but was skeptical about using a paid service even though it wasn't much money. Instead of signing up online I decided to go and see for myself. They told me what I could expect with a dog and how many places they could get me looking at. It was more than I had seen online in a month!! I registerred hit 2 rented places, made 2 appointments and chose the 2nd place I saw that day. I will deffinately go back to them next time.

I just got home from travelling for the past two weeks and when I logged in, I was blocked out. Found... more

I contacted these guys by accident when they posted several craigslist ads with no mention of the fact that I would need to pay them to contact the landlord, and no mention of their rental service.
After emails to about a dozen vague ads that sounded beyond perfect, the one with my phone number attached is what won me a response.
They called me on my phone at work, gave me a lengthy talk about...

DO NOT USE!!! Their staff treats you like an idiot if you refer to bad reviews and question their practices of charging money. They have become smarter now and don't mention RentalGuide in the ad anymore.
