Renter Rater website The idea of this project is to create a reliable source of information for renters to learn about the history of their prospective apartment and landlord. Landlords tend to have the upperhand so this is suppsoed to be a tool that renters can use to help even the playing field.
Look up history of apartments and Landords and how users of the site rate them.
