Our take
The process of leasing a property can be a daunting task, with property managers having to verify applicant IDs, screen them for fraud, assess credit scores, and conduct other background checks. This process requires a lot of repetitive research and data entry, but unfortunately, it is necessary to avoid the even costlier potential for high-risk renters.
VERO Leasing provides an automated residential leasing platform for lenders, focused on automating repetitive processes such as checks into ID verification, employment, criminal record, and right-to-rent documents. The company claims that this technology can reduce leasing application processes to just 24 hours, whilst guaranteeing that successful applicants have been thoroughly vetted.
Whilst many other startups are innovating within property leasing, these generally specialize in property management workflows or marketplace listings, whereas VERO Leasing has uniquely focussed on automating risk assessments and verifications. The company also claims that its comprehensive background checks can help give lenders more visibility into the trust of an applicant, thus giving residents access to rent when they otherwise may be ineligible.
