How it works
leaseexact.comThe details
Unknowns stay unknown
"Electricity: not confirmed — estimate AED 250–AED 400 a month." A range with its assumption, never a guess presented as a fact.
Payment schedule
"4 cheques: 1 Jan, 1 Apr, 1 Jul, 1 Oct" or "2 instalments". A yearly rent is never divided by twelve and called monthly.
Deposits are not costs
The refundable deposit is cash you need, so it's in "before move-in" — but never mixed into the whole-stay cost.
Country rules built in
England's permitted payments and deposit cap, Saudi Arabia's 2.5 % commission cap: a fee that breaks the rules can't be saved.
The same card in every country
Cairo's compound fees, Riyadh's instalments, Doha's cooling, London's council tax. Sample listings, example amounts.

Questions
Where do the numbers come from?
From the advertiser's terms: rent, bills, fees, deposit and payment schedule. LeaseExact does the arithmetic for your dates and shows the date of the terms it used.
Is the card a booking or a quote?
Neither. It is the cost of the home on the advertiser's current terms. The lease you sign is between you and them.
Why is the monthly average different from the rent?
Because it includes the bills and one-off fees spread over your stay. That's the number to compare between homes.
