If you’ve ever applied for a new apartment, you know how old-fashioned traditional apartment application forms are. Most landlords still hand out paper applications for tenants to fill out at home and fax in. Seriously? Who even uses fax machines anymore?
On the landlord side of things, outdated paper applications have their own set of problems. In addition to being a slow method of collecting new applications, they are a pain to keep organized. If you manage a handful of different apartment units, then overflowing stacks of applications (or overflowing filing cabinets) can quickly get out of hand.
And that’s not to mention typing all of the information from the paper application into your computer to send it out for tenant screening. What a waste of time for a landlord!
Why not do something as simple as provide online rental applications for prospective tenants?
That’s what Rocket Lease is all about. We put a spring in the step of the rental process and do away with outdated applications. It is time that the rental process utilizes current technology just like everything else does these days.
A Rocket Lease online application makes filling out a rental application easy as a tenant. You are simply given a URL, go home, and fill out the application on your own computer. No faxing and no driving are involved. In short, it makes a once tedious process incredibly quick and simple.
Once a landlord receives an application, the benefits of Rocket Lease’s services are even more apparent. Applications are stored online and can easily be accessed at any time. Furthermore, as soon as an application is received from a prospective renter, it is automatically sent to a tenant screening service, quickening things up even more. In fact, an online rental application can save landlords up to 8 to 12 hours of time for each unit leased.
