Why landlords choose RentalApplication.ai

AI calls past landlords

Our AI agent dials previous landlords, runs through your reference checklist, and sends back a verified summary.

Pay only for what you need

$24.99 to $49.99 per applicant (add $5 for FICO). No monthly fee.

Most reports return within minutes

Once your applicant verifies their ID, the report typically lands in your dashboard within minutes. Reference calls and bank-link income verification can take a few hours.

FCRA-compliant tools for landlords

Adverse-action letter templates, dispute routing to the originating bureau, and built-in state restrictions. Encrypted in transit and at rest.

How it works

Three steps. About five minutes of your time.

1

Add the property and applicant

Enter the rental address, the applicant's name and email, and which previous landlords our AI should call. Takes about 60 seconds.

2

AI does the legwork

Applicant verifies ID and consents. Our AI calls previous landlords, parses paystubs, runs records — in parallel.

3

Clear summary lands in your dashboard

Credit score, criminal, housing records, income, and a transcript of every reference call — with a clean recommendation up top.

For comparison

The cheapest, fastest screening on the market.

Most subscription tools charge $35–55 per report and lock you into property-management software you didn't ask for. We don't.

FAQ

Common questions

Most reports return within minutes once the applicant completes ID verification. AI reference calls take a few hours since they require reaching the previous landlord, and income verification adds a couple of minutes if the applicant uses bank-link. We email you the moment everything is ready.

Either works. You can pay upfront and invite the applicant, or send a link and have them pay during their application. Most landlords let the applicant pay — it self-selects serious renters.

TransUnion's ResidentScore is built specifically for tenancy decisions and uses TransUnion credit data — with a streamlined set of FCRA disclosures. FICO is the classic 300–850 credit score, $5 more, and requires additional disclosures plus a one-time landlord certification (about 2 minutes). Both scores are produced by TransUnion; we are a reseller of the underlying report and do not score or modify the data.

No. Unlike subscription tools that bundle screening into property-management software, you only pay for the screenings you actually run. No monthly fee, no minimum, no contract.

Our AI agent (provided in coordination with our partner Vosy) dials each previous landlord you list, walks them through your reference checklist (rent timeliness, cleanliness, would-rent-again, etc.), and sends back a written summary plus a recording of the call. It runs day or night and won't play phone-tag for you. AI summaries are interpretive aids — review the underlying transcript before relying on them for any tenancy decision.

We operate as a reseller of consumer reports under FCRA § 603(u). The underlying credit, criminal, housing, and identity data is furnished by independent consumer reporting agencies (TransUnion, Asurint, Pinwheel) — we forward and format it without modifying the substantive content. We give landlords the tools they need to stay compliant: adverse-action letter templates, dispute routing back to the originating bureau, and built-in state restrictions. The landlord remains the FCRA end-user and is responsible for the tenancy decision and any adverse-action notice. See the Terms of Service §2 for the full reseller framing.

Personal information is encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest. We do not sell personal information and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. See the Privacy Policy for full detail.

Single-family, multifamily, mobile-home parks, rooms, ADUs, vacation rentals — we don't restrict by asset class. The Services are not currently available for properties in Vermont, Massachusetts, or New York; per-applicant fees are capped in Wisconsin, Virginia, Philadelphia (PA), and Washington, D.C. See the Terms of Service §6 for the current list.
