RealPage AI Screening taps into a database of more than 30 million lease outcomes to more accurately predict “willingness to pay,” a more sophisticated screening method than the conventional credit and background check. The study did not quantify increased income due to higher occupancy resulting from the software’s ability to identify good renters who might be rejected by conventional screening software.
“These are just stunning numbers,” said Rich Hughes, SVP Data Science at RealPage. “We’re not only talking about reducing risk of default and its costs, which is what we measured. Many users are also going to hit higher occupancy rates by being able to say ‘yes’ to people they’d otherwise have turned away. They are also able to reduce the high costs of turns due to defaults, boost their renewal rates, lower their marketing spend and perhaps be able to nudge rents up. So, the payoff goes well beyond the numbers documented in the study.”
RealPage introduced AI Screening to beta clients in April of 2019, and to the general public a month later, giving RealPage over a year to compare against the legacy screening model without AI capabilities.
“We believe these impressive results are going to turn a lot of heads and get people to move away from their conventional screening model and transition to our AI solution,” concluded Hughes. “The software is paying for itself many times over in bottom-line benefits.”
