Simplify the Rental Process with Apply Now by Rental Beast!
Take the hassle out of rental applications with Apply Now, the all-in-one screening tool designed to make life easier for renters, agents and landlords.
Exclusive recommended rental software provider by the National Association of REALTORS®
Apply Now by Rental Beast is an FCRA-compliant rental application and screening process that the National Association of Realtors exclusively recommends.
Apply Now makes the tenant screening process straightforward and more efficient for all parties involved. It is a fully mobile-friendly application that can be distributed through multiple mediums to potential applicants. All parties can complete the application within minutes, and Transunion generates tenant screening reports 365 days a year.
All parties involved in a rental application can use Apply Now. This includes property owners, property managers, listing or renter agents, and renters. Note: Apply Now only works for listing(s) in Rental Beast’s affiliated markets or MLS organizations.
Rental Beast does not generate the application or screening report. Transunion, a major U.S.-based credit bureau, completes the screening. All credit-related information is derived directly from the bureau. Rental Beast does not view or retain non-public, credit-related information to remain FCRA-compliant.
The report includes information about an applicant's credit, eviction, and criminal history (where applicable). The reviewer (i.e., property owner) and the applicant are the only parties able to view the rental application, which includes income, employment, and residential history.
The cost of Apply Now depends on which party is using it. Ultimately, the applicant pays for the application and screening report.
Apply Now is a free tool for property owners/managers, as well as real estate professionals. They can use the tool to acquire applications and generate tenant screening reports without any cost.
The cost for a renter to complete an application is $36 and $49, depending on the market per applicant. Any cosigner(s) or guarantor(s) added to the application must also pay $36 to $49, depending on the market per applicant.
