RentTango 'Let's Lease Together' Webinar Series Showcases How to Reduce Fraud and Risk with Integrated Resident Screening

NEW YORK, Jan. 11, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- RentTango, an innovative real estate software company, announces its latest Let's Lease Together webinar – "Balancing Accuracy and Speed for Resident Screening." The online seminar will demonstrate that the integration of ClearStar technology for criminal and background checks on the RentTango platform can reduce fraud with automated resident screening, streamlining the leasing process, and improving net operating income for leasing and property managers. Registration is open for the webinar on January 19, 2022 at 4:00pm EST.

"The RentTango platform, which is focused on residential real estate marketing and leasing, is continually evolving to embrace technologies that mitigate risk, modernize the leasing process, and enable leasing and property managers to close deals faster," noted Paul Zullo, co-founder and CEO of RentTango. "Our partnership with ClearStar gives landlords and property managers a fast and efficient way to qualify applicants directly on the RentTango platform so they can evaluate every tenant's trustworthiness, financial stability, and identity – and adjust the acceptance criteria for each property or locality."

Incorporating the power of AI, machine learning, and marketing automation, the RentTango platform enables property managers to make modern proptech integral to their leasing strategy easily. The platform not only leverages TransUnion credit and public record data for tenant evaluation, but it is also apace with ever-changing tenant screening regulations, which vary by state and even unique city laws. For example, in New York, landlords cannot deny applicants based on their previous rental history, including evictions, while in California, State law allows the review of a tenant's credit, criminal, and eviction history. Yet, the cities of Oakland and Berkeley restrict landlords from denying an applicant based on their past illegal activity. "This means that real estate professionals need to ensure their processes comply with prevailing state and city regulations," continued Zullo, "which demands that their real estate software solutions have the flexibility to accommodate and adapt to this ever-changing climate. RentTango delivers an unprecedented degree of flexibility allowing for easy adjustments of screening services and workflows based on the locality of the property."

Automation & Integrations Can Improve NOI
The second in the Let's Lease Together webinar series, the January 19th session will give attendees an overview of the RentTango and ClearStar technologies and application workflows. It will detail what's included in the ClearStar data that RentTango leverages, such as applicant credit history and scores, public records, criminal background checks, and eviction history covering:

• Federal Criminal History- Felony & Misdemeanor Convictions
• National Sex Offender Registry (SOR)- all 50 States
• Multiple Adult and Child Abuse Registries
• Multiple FBI Lists: including most wanted, human trafficking and Terrorism lists
• OFAC – Office of Foreign Asset Control – List of debarred persons (associated with terrorism and funding of terrorism)Interpol's Most Wanted List OIG and SAM Lists: Persons associated with defrauding the Federal government

"Automating this level of data while ensuring FCRA and FHA compliance helps to accelerate and streamline the leasing process so that property managers can close deals faster," said Jason Madlin, co-founder and CTO of RentTango. "Moreover, our January 19th webinar will give property managers a first-hand look at how they can capitalize on RentTango's comprehensive and customizable technology that accommodates fair housing and leasing application laws nationwide. RentTango basically gives them another set of eyes that's reviewing documents uploaded to the platform and evaluates applicants based on the screening criteria set for the specific property or company and provides a recommendation. This makes the tenant evaluation process easier, and the team can feel more confident in their decision making."
