From first inquiry to completed application in one platform — with income and identity tools, TransUnion-powered screening, and sync to your PMS. Go from lead to approved application, faster.

Lead, prescreening, showing, follow-up, application — all in one platform, all under your brand.
RentEngine brings the application flow and the screening tools your team relies on into one workflow.
TransUnion credit and Asurint criminal and eviction reports — returned in seconds and surfaced directly in your review flow.
Government ID scan, liveness detection, and selfie match tied to the applicant.

Payroll connection, bank connection, and document upload — applicants share income from three sources for your review.
Surfaces potential issues on uploaded paystubs for your team to review.
We reach out to landlords and employers on your behalf, confirm the contact, and log every response for your review.
Collect anything else you need — pet info, vehicle details, or proof of anything.

Real humans answering real questions, every day of the week — so applications keep moving and your team stays focused on closing.
When a prospect gets stuck on a paystub upload at 8pm on a Sunday, or has a question about pet policy mid-application, they reach a person who can actually help. No bots, no IVR loops, no “we’ll get back to you Monday.”

RentEngine connects income three ways — payroll, bank, and document upload — with document authenticity checks.
When a paystub shows possible issues, the document is flagged for your team to review, with the specific reason shown.
RentEngine follows up at every stage. Started but didn’t finish? Stuck on a document? Took too long to respond after a tour? We nurture every applicant back into the flow.
Track what happens from lead to showing to application, all in one reporting layer.
Because RentEngine handles the full workflow, your reporting reflects the full workflow too. No more stitching together exports from separate systems just to see where applications stall or where your best leads come from.
Once an application is approved, applicant data flows back to your property management system for a smoother move-in and lease signing process.
No duplicate entries. No manual rework.



Teams using RentEngine Applications are seeing more completed applications, faster review times, and less operational drag.

“It's streamlining three different things into one. The conversion rate is higher, like 100% higher.”

What does it include?
A complete application flow with TransUnion-powered screening, document authenticity checks, and reference collection: credit, criminal, and eviction reports; income tools with document checks; live ID and selfie verification; and landlord and employer references that RentEngine collects for you. You decide which reports and screenings to run based on your own policies, and you can set different templates for different property types.
Do you run credit, criminal, and eviction checks?
Yes — full credit, criminal, and eviction screening. The criminal search runs nationally, then checks each county the applicant has lived in based on their credit report. For the counties that don't digitize their court records (large parts of Mississippi and New Mexico, among others), a court runner pulls the records in person, so you cast the widest possible net.
Which credit bureau do you use?
TransUnion, with Asurint as the partner for criminal and eviction records.
How fast do reports come back?
97% of screening reports return within 2 minutes. The other 3% are the cases that require an in-person county search, and those come back within one business day. Income verification returns near-instantly, in about a minute, and ID verification happens live while the applicant completes their application.
How is income shared and reviewed?
Applicants connect their bank, link payroll, or upload documents. OCR extracts pay period, gross/net pay, and consistency for your review. If a PDF shows possible authenticity issues, it’s flagged for your team with the specific reason
How do you collect landlord and employer references?
The applicant provides contact details for past landlords and employers. RentEngine reaches out by both text and email and follows up persistently until the reference is complete — your team never sends a message. Each completed reference includes a two-factor identity confirmation of the person responding, so you know it’s a real contact.
Do you do ID verification?
Yes. The applicant takes a live selfie (no uploads — it's captured through the front-facing camera) and submits their ID, which RentEngine verifies front and back. The selfie, ID, screening, and income documents are all matched into a secure chain of record, so the person who shows up on move-in day is the person you approved.
What support do you offer?
Applicants get a dedicated support line, 7 days a week, for any questions while they apply. Your team gets the same US-based technical support as the rest of the platform. If an applicant disputes a charge, RentEngine fights the chargeback on your behalf.
Does this sync with my property management software?
Yes. Approved applications sync back in one click so you can sign the lease and move the resident in as you normally would.
Does this work with RentEngine AI?
Yes. RentEngine AI nurtures the lead all the way to the application and answers questions throughout, so the prospect stays in one conversation from inquiry to submitted application.
Why do RentEngine applications work better than standalone screening tools?
Other screening tools sit outside your leasing software, so prospects switch tabs, lose the thread, and drop off. RentEngine applications live inside the same flow your team already uses. Teams that consolidated onto RentEngine applications saw 25% higher lead-to-application conversion and processed applications 14 hours faster.
