Rental Application Feature Overview

ShowMojo provides the foundation of a best-in-class rental application platform. The highlights include:

• You decide what matters to in your application: employment, other income, pets, vehicles, references, occupants — we’ve got it all.
• You decide what individual questions are mandatory, optional, or not needed.
• You decide what additional custom questions you want to ask.
• You receive an email both when an application is started and when it is completed. And you have one-click access to any showing details related to the application.
• Prospective renters get a streamlined application form. They can even return to it when life interrupts.
• Super-simple (and optional) Application Fees Collection.‍
• Even simpler (and optional) Applicant Screening.

Furthermore, ShowMojo's rental application form was built for mobile usage.

And, finally, ShowMojo's rental application works hand-in-glove with its Rental Application Criteria feature. Or, you can Continue to Host Rental Application Criteria with a Third Party.

Pricing

There's almost no additional cost for the rental applications feature. The only additional "fee" occurs when an applicant starts an application without linking to it from a ShowMojo link. In this case, a new lead is created as a reference point for the application.
