The Problem with Manual Screening

Say Goodbye to Manual Screening: How AI Scores Tenants Before You Even Respond

April 21, 20252 min read

Every property manager knows that tenant screening is one of the most time-consuming parts of leasing. Sorting through applications, asking the same questions, and chasing down missing info wastes hours—and often delays leasing decisions.

That’s why leasing teams are turning to AI support agents from Vix to pre-qualify and score tenants automatically, before you even respond. With no-code setup and seamless support across voice, SMS, email, and chat, Vix makes smart automation easy for everyone.

The Problem with Manual Screening

  • Takes hours per week just to review leads

  • Risk of bias and inconsistency in evaluations

  • Slower response times = lost deals

What AI Screening Does Differently

1. AI Agent for Voice

  • Answers rental inquiry calls instantly and gathers key info like income, move-in date, and credit status

  • Applies pre-set scoring logic and routes qualified leads to your inbox or calendar

  • Ensures no lead is left hanging, even after hours

2. AI Agent for SMS

  • Sends automatic screening questions to inbound text leads

  • Scores responses based on your rental criteria

  • Replies immediately with next steps or a polite rejection message

3. AI Agent for Email

  • Replies to form submissions or direct inquiries with a guided pre-screening form

  • Scores applicants based on creditworthiness, employment, or rental history

  • Forwards only qualified leads to your leasing dashboard

4. AI Chatbot Support

  • Lives on your website or listing pages to greet new leads

  • Walks visitors through customizable screening flows in real time

  • Tags, scores, and routes high-quality leads to your CRM or booking system
