Giving tenants a voice
HonestRent was born from a simple belief: everyone deserves to know what they're getting into before signing a lease. We're here to create transparency in the rental market.
Balance and transparency in renting
The rental market has always been asymmetric. Landlords can check references, run credit checks, and vet tenants thoroughly. But what about tenants? How do you know if a property is well-maintained? If the landlord is responsive? If the neighbours are quiet?
HonestRent changes that. We provide a platform where tenants can share their honest experiences — the good and the bad — so future renters can make informed decisions about where they'll call home.
This isn't about punishing landlords. It's about creating accountability and helping people find places where they can truly envision their lives.
Hi, I'm Dhaif 👋,
I'm a data scientist at heart — it's been my entire career. But beyond the algorithms and models, I've always believed in using data to solve real problems that affect real people.
The idea for HonestRent came from my own experiences as a tenant, and from hearing countless stories from friends and colleagues about rental nightmares that could have been avoided with better information.
I built this platform to give tenants the same power that landlords have always had: the power of informed decision-making. Whether you're a student renting your first flat or a family looking for a long-term home, you deserve to know what you're getting into.
