Comprehensive Services by Rent Perfect
Rent Perfect offers a broad range of services designed to simplify rental management. Here’s a closer look at what REIA members can expect from this system.
1. Tenant Screening and Applications
With Rent Perfect, landlords can invite prospective tenants to complete an online application, pay for their background check, and create a Rent Perfect account. For $44.95 per applicant, landlords can access extensive screening services, including background checks, credit history, criminal records, evictions, judgments, and liens. These checks are conducted by licensed private investigators, ensuring accurate and reliable information. This fee is typically paid by the applicant, making this a no-cost benefit to REIA landlords.
2. Customizable Leases and Move-In Inspections
Rent Perfect offers free customizable lease templates for REIA members. Once a tenant is approved, landlords can generate a digital lease, which tenants can view and sign online, eliminating the need for physical paperwork. The lease can be accessed on any device, making it convenient for both landlords and tenants.
To avoid disputes over property condition, Rent Perfect also provides a move-in inspection tool. This digital solution enables landlords to document the property’s condition at the start of the lease, making it easier to assess potential damages at move-out.
3. Renter’s Insurance
Tenant negligence can lead to unexpected damages. Rent Perfect allows tenants to purchase liability insurance starting at $4.95 per month, giving landlords protection against potential lawsuits and damages. As an added benefit, landlords are notified if the insurance policy is terminated early, giving them peace of mind.
4. Online Rent Payments
Collecting rent has never been easier. Rent Perfect’s online rent payment tool allows landlords to manage rent collections securely and conveniently. Tenants can set up automated monthly payments, which helps them build a positive credit history with each on-time payment. Landlords benefit from a streamlined process, tracking payment details, due dates, and even late fees in one place. For each account, landlords pay a $10 monthly fee, while tenants pay $3.95 per ACH payment.
5. Skip Tracing Tool
Rent Perfect includes a skip tracing tool, which costs $5 per order. This tool helps landlords locate past tenants who have skipped out, making it easier to initiate the legal process for recovering owed funds. With just a tenant’s name and SSN, landlords can obtain current addresses to facilitate collections.
6. Vendor VIP and Work Order Management
Coming in 2024, Rent Perfect will integrate with Vendor VIP, providing landlords with a seamless work order management solution. This tool allows landlords to manage work orders directly with their chosen vendors, ensuring that repairs and maintenance requests are handled efficiently. Through the Vendor VIP platform, REIA members can establish a preferred vendor list and invite their preferred service providers to join.
