What happens
when an apartment property decides
NOT to pay our referral commission?
In rare cases, an apartment community may decide not to pay our referral commission. In response, this act constitutes a retraction of our rebate/Free Move offer.
When a property decides not to pay our referral commission, it can be due to a number of reasons such as the tenant breaking their lease, not paying their rent, being evicted and more. If you have any more questions about these circumstances,
please call at 214-544-7676.
If for any reason a property decides not to pay our referral commission for any reason, Apartment-America reserves the right to charge the client for the cost of the move at a rate that is predetermined by your agent in advance for such rare circumstances. That rate will be approved by both parties in advance as an understanding that it is a rare circumstance that an apartment complex does not pay the referral fee.
