Renting in the Philippines is broken. We're fixing it.

The old way leaks money to middlemen and trust to nobody. LOCATR rebuilds it from first principles.

The old way

  • Sketchy locators charging hidden fees
  • No way to verify if a listing is real
  • Landlords vanish after reservation fees
  • Generic Facebook posts, zero accountability

With LOCATR

  • Zero middlemen — direct match
  • Every landlord ID + Property Title verified
  • Reservation fees held in escrow
  • LOCATR Score keeps everyone accountable

How LOCATR works

From signup to signed lease in days, not weeks.

STEP 01

Verify your identity

Upload your government ID and a quick selfie. We cross-check with OCR + liveness detection. Your data is encrypted and deleted after verification.

STEP 02

Swipe or get swiped

Renters browse verified listings Tinder-style. Landlords get a ranked inbox of interested renters sorted by LOCATR Score.

STEP 03

Match, reserve, sign

Chat unlocks on mutual match. Hold the unit with an escrow-protected reservation. Generate a lease and download the PDF.

Verified at every step

Three product surfaces — built to remove every place trust used to break down.

Listing creation

Every listing, verified at the source.

Landlords must be physically at the property to publish a listing — GPS-fenced to the unit. Project NOAH flood-risk data is auto-attached so you know what you're getting into before you ever message.

Reservation escrow

Your reservation, safely held.

Pay your reservation fee into LOCATR's secure Xendit escrow. If the landlord ghosts, you get a full refund. If both sides proceed, funds release the moment the contract is signed.

Contracts generated to be enforceable in Philippine courts.

Real renters. Real landlords. Real homes.

Two months in, here's what early users in Bicol have said.

"Skipped three locator fees and signed in a week. The flood-risk badge made me change neighbourhoods before I even visited."

Renter, Legazpi

"My listings used to get 40 random Messenger DMs. LOCATR's Interest Inbox ranks them and tells me who's actually ID-verified. Filled three units this quarter."

"The Monitoring Suite alone is worth it. Auto-collected rent for 6 units last month — no chasing, no Viber reminders. ₱100 well spent."

Frequently asked questions

Is LOCATR a real estate broker?
No. LOCATR is a technology platform that connects renters and landlords directly. We don't represent either side, don't take commission on rent, and don't replace licensed brokers — we replace the unlicensed, unverified locators charging hidden fees.
How do you prevent fake listings?
Landlords must be physically standing at the property to create a listing — we GPS-fence the publish action. We then run OCR on the property title and cross-check against the landlord's verified ID. Listings that fail are auto-rejected.
What if my landlord cancels after I pay the reservation fee?
Reservation fees are held in Xendit escrow — we never touch the money. If the landlord cancels or fails to sign within the agreed window, funds are returned to you in full, automatically.
Is the lease contract legally binding?
Yes. Contracts are drafted in accordance with Civil Code Articles 1642–1688 and reviewed by Philippine real-estate counsel. Both parties sign with verified identities, and the signed PDF is sealed and stored as evidence.
Can I use LOCATR if I already have tenants?
Yes — that's the "Monitoring Landlord" track. Invite your existing tenants via a private link (free), and unlock rent collection, utility splitting, and a maintenance log for ₱100/month.
How do you protect my ID and personal data?
LOCATR is registered with the National Privacy Commission and compliant with the Data Privacy Act of 2012. IDs are encrypted with AES-256, processed only by automated verification, and deleted once your account is verified. We never sell your data.
