## Frequently asked questions

### What does the Rental Application Form ask applicants?

Contact details, the property, move in date, lease length, household size, pets, current address and landlord, employer, and income. Applicants then sign a screening authorization.

### Can I download each rental application as a PDF?

Yes. Every application is signed, so you can download it as a PDF with the answers, the signature, and when it was signed. Applicants can download their own copy too.

### How does the form help me screen applicants?

Lead mode marks each application hot, warm, or not a fit from the income and lease length answers, so you review the strongest first. Check your local fair housing rules before adding questions.
