Question

I have an apartment that I want to rent out. Is it permissible for me to call a real estate agency to inquire about rental prices in the area, so I know at what price I can rent out the apartment?

Answer

You must inform the broker at the time of inquiry that you do not wish to rent, but are only inquiring about the price.
