The short answer
Yes. In Denver, an apartment locator is free for the renter. The apartment community pays the locator a fee after you sign a lease and move in. With Denver Apt Pro you never pay us anything, before, during, or after your search.
Short answer: yes, it costs renters nothing. Here is who actually pays the locator, what you get, the honest catch, and what to ask before you pick one.

Apartment communities set aside a leasing and marketing budget to fill their units. A locator is one way they find new residents, like an ad or a listing site, except they only pay when a lease is signed. The amount varies by property. It is paid by the community, not added to your rent or your application fees by us.
Narrows the list. You tell us budget, area, move date, pets, and your situation. We show the communities that fit instead of you scrolling hundreds of listings.
Asks the hard questions for you. ITIN instead of SSN, no or low credit, a broken lease or past eviction, a co-signer. We ask each property what they require before you pay an application fee. Approval is always the property's decision.
Checks the real price. Move-in specials change what a lease really costs, so we compare effective rent, not just the advertised number.
Works in English and Spanish. Juan David Rodriguez handles your search and paperwork bilingually.
A locator only gets paid when you sign with a community in their network. That means we show you the communities we work with, not every apartment in Denver. If you already found a place you love somewhere else, you do not need a locator for that one. Ask any locator which communities they work with, so you know what you are, and are not, seeing.
1. How do you get paid? The answer should be that the community pays, and you pay nothing.
2. Will you ever charge me a fee? The answer should be no.
3. Which communities do you work with? This tells you how much of the market you are seeing.
4. Can you handle my situation? ITIN, credit, broken lease, pets, co-signer.
5. Will you tell me when a place is not a fit? A good locator does.
