Frequently asked questions
What is net effective rent?
It spreads any free months across the whole lease to show the true average monthly cost. Paying 10 of 12 months at $3,000 gross gives a net effective rent of $2,500.
Where does this number get used?
Landlords often advertise the gross rent while offering free months. Net effective rent reveals what you really pay each month, making concessions easy to compare.
