RealBird has partnered with RentRisk to integrate their tenant application and screening services directly into our rental listing syndication platform, (available in the USA). With this integration, you can now easily add a tenant application and background check option to your RealBird rental listings when you publish them, or directly from the listing’s marketing page in your dashboard.
How Does It Work?
Activating this feature in your RealBird dashboard is a one-click process. Once enabled, RealBird automatically generates a RentRisk tenant screening link for your rental property. This link is stored in your RealBird dashboard, where you can easily copy and share it with potential tenants. Additionally, the single property website that RealBird creates for your rental will include an “Apply Now” button, allowing renters to immediately submit their applications and complete a background check.
When you first activate this feature on RealBird, our API integration with RentRisk will set up an account for you, and a screening link will be generated automatically. Whenever a new application is submitted, RentRisk will notify you via email, and you can track the progress and approve applicants from their dashboard.
What Are the Costs Involved?
RealBird members can access this tenant screening and application tool at no extra cost. While RentRisk offers additional paid services for property managers and agents, the core tenant application and screening service integrated with RealBird comes as a free add-on.
Please note, tenants are required to pay an application fee to cover the cost of their background check and application processing.
How to Set Up and Use the Tenant Screening Feature
Getting started is simple.
As you create and syndicate a new rental listing on RealBird, you’ll see the option to automatically add a tenant screening link for that listing. Once you check the box in the listing editor, RealBird will communicate with RentRisk via API to generate the tenant application link, which will be stored along with your listing.
RentRisk will also send you an email with details about the screening link and refer to your RealBird service to avoid confusion. You can access the link from both the RealBird and RentRisk dashboards whenever you need it.
This feature can also be enabled or disabled at any time from your RealBird dashboard, making it easy to manage for previously syndicated listings or any new rental properties.
RealBird will automatically include the tenant application link on the single property websites and in auto-responder emails sent to prospective tenants, but you’re also encouraged to share it manually with interested parties.
You’ll receive an email alert each time a new applicant submits their information, making it easy for you to manage and approve or deny applications directly from RentRisk.
Ready to Get Started?
Existing RealBird members can log in, add a new rental property, and activate the tenant screening feature right away. The process is seamless and integrates into your usual workflow for listing syndication and marketing.
