CREtech Blog
For landlords as well as tenants, the rental process used to be incredibly complex and time-consuming. Rentalutions is helping to make that process easier and more efficient by giving landlords the ability locate tenants, complete the leasing process, and even collect rent, all online. Tenants are also able to benefit from the convenience and privacy offered by the platform. All necessary leasing forms can be completed entirely online. It's even possible to make payments online securely, eliminating the need to mail a check or pay rent in person.
On the rental side, landlords and property managers are using the platform to post rental listings across a variety of online sites, including Padmapper, Trulia, Zillow, ApartmentFinder, HotPads, Apartments.com, and more. Rentalutions acts as an all-in-one solution, giving landlords the ability to request online rental applications, conduct TransUnion credit/background checks, receive ACH and credit/debit card payments, use state-specific lease templates, and manage maintenance requests. Everything that a landlord or property manager needs to do in order to effectively market, rent, and manage a rental can be done through Rentalutions via a host of features.
Automatic Listings
According to Rentalutions, landlords can receive 15 to 20 tenant leads within just two weeks. Rentalutions gives landlords the ability to create professional-quality listings with unlimited photos. The platform will post listings across the web automatically every evening, giving landlords access to a larger pool of quality renters while posting to just one site.

Digital Leasing
No longer must landlords deal with the hassle of faxing and scanning leases. Rentalutions provides an attorney review template that can be customized for each property. All state-specific disclosures are provided as part of the lease package. Landlords and tenants can even sign leases digitally.
