We have found that 70% of renters who search for rental properties online have at least one pet and 90% of properties that are listed on the market for rent are allowing pets.
Property owners who allow pets can experience increased renter demand on their rental properties and enjoy the following benefits:
- Increased market demand means that you attract more qualified tenants to the property.
- Faster rental process
- Ability to rent for full market value
- More rental applications to choose from.
- Reduced turnover and more lease renewals, as renters tend to stay longer when they find a pet-friendly home. Less vacancy.
- Elimination of the need for tenants to sneak in pets or use unauthorized or fake service animal certifications
- Compliance with legal requirements regarding service animals
To protect your property and reduce liability, we take the following measures:
- TouchPoint utilizes a third-party pet screening service called PetScreening.com to thoroughly assess pets by reviewing their records and references, ensuring that only low-risk pets are allowed. This process significantly reduces pet-related issues.
- We do not allow dangerous breeds or pets too large for the property.
