Team

Founders: Brandon Chatham & Jason LeBlanc

Starting off as realtors in college, we recognized the rental industry was in need of innovation for both renters and landlords. After many cups of coffee and late nights we developed and launched the beta version of Rentology.com in our hometown of Lafayette, LA. Once renters began using the site, word of mouth quickly spread and Rentology.com was soon known locally as “The Science of Renting.” We have many new ideas for the company, and our business model is scaleable and positioned for rapid growth.


 

Business model

Freemium & Pay-for-performance

Competitive advantage
  • Our name sparks curiosity among users and has a natural theme, “The Science of Renting” which allows us to seamlessly provide many services that fall under that umbrella. (Instead of Apartments.com, ApartmentFinder.com, ApartmentGuide.com, etc.)
  • There isn’t one size fits all in the rental industry. We take many approaches to capturing each market differently, while consolidating everything into one site.
  • Our pay-for-performance models are more cost-effective for our customers and offer creative solutions to the problems with the status quo.
  • Renters can create profiles where they can manage everything from paying rent online to searching for a new home or roommate.
