Traditional: Landlord gathers information about their property, and posts it on various websites (Zillow, Craiglist, etc). Each site has differing formatting, rules, and requirements.
RentEasy: Landlord walks through purpose-built listing workflow to get their property posted easily.
Ideas: RentEasy can cross-post to other websites.
Traditional: Landlord will schedule a time with the tenant to see the dwelling. If parties show mutual interest an application can be submitted.
RentEasy:
Traditional: Tenant will fill out and process rental application in whatever method the landlord requires, this can be paper or electronic generally.
RentEasy: Tenant can download RentEasy app to apply for the property. Credit Score & Background Check will only be pulled once a year on RentEasy, so you can apply for many properties at once. Tenant can easily pay the application fee (if required) through RentEasy Payments.
