RentValet

edit

Consumer-facing Apply-Online rental application services for the US Residential Rental Market.

Filling a vacancy is an 11-step process for landlords and a 6-step process for tenant-applicants. This is a burden for both parties and a web-solution is long overdue.

RentValet automates the vacancy-filling process for both landlord and tenant-applicant. Landlords use the service for free and save 5-10 hours per vacancy. Their applicants save 50% in application fees and at least one trip across town.

Two patents are issued. More patents are pending.

Founded in 2009 and launched in 2012.

Update Fall 2012: RentValet was taken offline.
