Core Features
Screening checklist
Checklists and optional AI suggestions you decide. Credit checks stay off-platform.
What this tool does
Screening tools help you organise applications, references, and notes. Optional AI suggestions are decision-support only. SmartRent does not run CCR or consumer credit checks, and you always decide who to let to.
What you can do
- You decide every applicant
- Off-platform credit if you want it
- Reference notes in one place
- Optional AI suggestions, not scores you must follow
- GDPR tools for data you store
- Save time on paperwork, not on legal advice
How application checklists work
- 1
Tenant submits an application
Applicants fill in the form on a listing you published, with employment and rental history you asked for.
- 2
You read what they sent
Payslips, statements, and references sit on the application. Optional wording suggestions are labelled as such.
- 3
Credit checks stay off this website
If you want a credit check, do it yourself off-platform. SmartRent does not return CCR or consumer-credit results.
- 4
Keep your own notes
Record what you verified. There is no credit score and no automated refuse/accept.
- 5
You decide
Accept or refuse. The decision is yours, not the software’s.
How landlords use it
Several properties
Read each application. Optional suggestions are labelled as such. Nothing is auto-accepted.
Self-managing landlord
Keep applications, references, and your notes together. Optional suggestions are labelled as such. You still decide who to let to.
