About RenterResume

For every successful rental housing transaction, there are two main parts: the way a renter finds ideal homes and the way a landlord finds ideal renters. Lots of companies help renters find ideal homes (ApartmentList, Lovely, PadMapper, others) from their smartphone, but none who help landlords find ideal renters. Enter RenterResume. We’ve built a cloud-based smart tenant screening platform for landlords and professionals that’s different from all others: its renter initiated (no credit hit & they control their sensitive information), gives each landlord personalized recommendations for every applicant, and takes only minutes for results. We launched our MVP four months ago and have had paying customers since the first day. Our traction so far: 6 beta accounts in property management & multi-family with >600 properties under management, 3.4 renter applications per property, $35 per application with 70% margin, >200 applications processed to date, waiting list of >60 landlords & pros.

RenterResume is a platform to screen tenants

RenterResume is a platform to screen tenants The service, free for landlords, launched to the public this week.

When Realtor Ashley Wilson advertised her own West Virginia property for rent, she found herself making the long haul only to meet with renters who weren’t qualified. The two met through soon-merging entrepreneur matchmaking service CoFoundersLab  and came up with what they feel is a better way. RenterResume opened to the public this week. It’s a screening platform , currently free for landlords with a fee for applicants, that standardizes and simplifies the process. “We started talking to landlords,” said Hines, CEO of the Owings Mills startup. “I really found out that the bottleneck in the process was they were really overwhelmed and they didn’t know how to qualify the renter.” With RenterResume, a landlord creates a listing with a few lines about their property and what they are looking for from applicants then gives that URL to prospective tenants. The applicants give their name, Social Security number and other standard information. The number is not shared with the landlord. The landlord then gets an email saying they have an applicant. “RenterResume’s cloud-based smart tenant screening product has allowed my staff to streamline the entire leasing process,” Joseph Rieling, president of Nomadic Real Estate, said in a release. “Overall, it has it has helped us operate more efficiently and dedicate time to other crucial aspects of the business.” Hines said the website already has nearly 40 properties onboard with the service, which currently offers a 60-day free trial for landlords, though that will drop to 30 days later on, he said. Hines said he sees RenterResume as more than a landlord aid. “There’s a big future for predictive analytics and using data intelligently,” he said. “We’re not just tenant screening. In the future we’ll be predictive screening and tenant analytics for landlords.” Related -30- Tyler Waldman is lead reporter for Technical.ly Baltimore.
