We are only a few weeks away from 2022. And what does that mean for property managers?

Well, a survey of 854 property managers conducted by Equifax and InspectRealEstate in November 2021 found that almost 62% expect the volume of rental applications to increase in 2022. Happy new year!

In addition, some 47% of property managers report that chasing references is the most time-consuming part of the tenancy application. And 36% of property managers find checking an applicant’s rental history and financial position is a time-consuming exercise.

These figures outline some of the challenges confronting property managers. How are you going to handle the increasing workload with limited time and resources?

The good news is 2Apply can save you time and make your job much easier.

2Apply is a tenant application form that integrates seamlessly with the IRE product suite. Since its launch in January 2021, 2Apply has helped thousands of Australian property managers process 1,297,582 tenancy applications so far. This time-saving software allows applications to be processed faster, giving agencies more time to focus on service delivery and business growth.

Here are some of the reasons why leading property managers are choosing 2Apply:

  • Customisable form: You can customise the questions you ask tenants and referees, including the documents you require.
  • Reference ready: Tenants are only able to submit their application once they have answered all questions and supplied all documents. When a 2Apply application comes in, it’s complete and ready to be processed.
  • Better reporting: You can create reports for owners or other agents with different information, telling them what they need to know when they need to know it.
  • Find the right applicant quickly: You can shortlist applications and put them in preference order based on the documents they provide and the quality of their references.
  • Auto-communication: The system automatically communicates with tenants advising them how their application is progressing, for example, “We are waiting on your rental reference”.
  • Data protection: 2Apply features two-factor authentication to help protect information on the application forms.
  • Save time on screening applicants: You can order Equifax’s industry-leading National Tenancy Database (NTD) report within 2Apply, and quickly find the right tenants with peace of mind.
