Verification of Rent

Trust the track record, not the reference letter.

Trust the track record, not the reference letter.

Verification of Rent confirms an applicant’s payment history directly with previous landlords, filling in a blind spot that credit scores don’t cover. Automated, multi-channel outreach means leasing teams get that history without having to chase down a single phone call themselves.

Automated Multi-Channel Outreach

Snappt contacts previous landlords through email, text, and phone with strategically timed follow-ups. Your team initiates the request. Snappt handles every touchpoint until a response comes back.

Landlord Verification

Before any outreach begins, Snappt cross-references the landlord against property ownership databases to confirm they’re the actual owner or manager. No verification is accepted from an unverified source.

Verified Payment History Report

Your team receives a clear report confirming the applicant’s rental payment track record: how long they rented, and whether they paid on time.

How it works

Rental references, verified without a single call from your team

Verification of Rent runs in the background of your existing screening. No extra steps for leasing agents, no new forms for applicants.

Step 1
Application submitted

The applicant applies through your existing system. Screening runs as normal while Verification of Rent starts automatically.

Step 2
References extracted

Snappt pulls rental references straight from the application data and works to verify up to five years of rental history, in under two minutes.

Step 3
Landlords verified and contacted

Each landlord is checked against property ownership records before outreach begins. Snappt follows up by email, text, and phone for up to 72 hours, with human review for complex cases.

Step 4
Results delivered

Your team gets a standardized report on payment history, balances owed, evictions, and lease compliance, with a full audit trail.

Step 5
Results flow into your PMS

Reports land directly in Yardi, Entrata, RealPage, or Rent Manager, or in the Snappt dashboard if you don’t use a PMS integration.
