The honest answers.

How is Fairway free?: Properties pay us a referral fee after you move in, the same fee they'd otherwise pay a broker. You pay nothing, ever, and we're paid after your decision rather than for influencing it.
Do you have every listing, or just partners?: We search everything we can reach: the major portals, Craigslist, property management sites, and buildings that only list on their own page. Most of what you see comes from properties that pay us nothing.
Is a real person involved?: Your agent is AI. It searches, calls properties, and books tours. A human on our team steps in when something needs judgment, like a lease clause that looks wrong.
What if I already found a place?: Tell us and we'll pressure-test it: the real monthly cost, what's in the lease, and whether something better posted this week. If it's the right place, we'll say so.
