LeaseRedFlag is a US 50-state residential-lease decoder. We flag the 12 most-litigated lease clause types — late fees, security deposits, auto-renewal, attorney-fee shifting, habitability waivers, arbitration, holdover multipliers, and 5 more — and link each one to a primary state-legislature citation when verified, or to a clearly-marked "pending verification" placeholder when not.
We are not a law firm. We don't represent you, we don't practice law, we don't generate the legal answer with an AI. The classifier identifies which clause type your text triggers; the rule for your state comes from a static ruleset committed in this repo, each verified rule matched to the cited statute text.
Not yet reviewed by a qualified person
No attorney has reviewed the ruleset. A verified cell means its rule was matched to the cited statute text on the date shown — not a legal review.
Editorial discipline
- Official sources only.Every verified cell links the statute text on the state's official site. Never paraphrased from Nolo, RentPrep, or any secondary commentary as authority.
- Check dates. Every verified cell shows the date its rule was matched to the cited statute text.
- Visible placeholders.When we don't know, we say so. Unverified cells render a "pending verification" pin, never a guess. The state-legislature landing link is always present so you can verify directly.
- Calm-corrective tone.Tenants reading a lease are anxious enough; we don't amplify panic with alarm-red or scales-of-justice imagery. The audience is either pre-signing (worried) or in a dispute (worried) — both deserve plain English.
- No predatory affiliates.We don't promote eviction-mill operators, tenant-screening data resellers, or any operator with active FTC consent decrees. Brand-trust is more valuable than any single CPL.
