"RentHop is free to browse and to post listings, but landlords are charged half a month's rent for every signed lease the website helps bring in."

Anyone know how you would enforce this? Seems like it would be easy for landlords/renters to circumvent the charging process.

I'm also really curious how renthop works in that regard.

I've thought about similar businesses, and avoiding being cut out always seems like a hard-to-solve problem.

I would really appreciate if you guys could give an explanation without me having to rent a place to test-drive the process. :)
