How AI Tenant Scores Are Changing the Role of Leasing Agents
The leasing process has long required agents to juggle a variety of tasks: marketing units, managing communication, hosting tours—and most time-consuming of all, screening leads.
But what if that last part—screening—was handled by automation?
With AI tenant scoring tools like Vix, leasing professionals can now rely on consistent, data-driven decision-making to qualify leads faster and more fairly. And that shift is transforming the role of leasing agents everywhere.
What Is AI Tenant Scoring?
A system that automatically evaluates renters based on factors like income, credit, rental history, employment, and move-in timeline
Similar to how credit scores are used in lending, AI tenant scores assess applicant quality using rule-based logic
Helps property managers quickly prioritize the highest-fit applicants
