How do I add background questions to application form?

Within the system, you can screen your tenants and access all of the important information you need to know about your potential tenants. Background questions can help you veto tenants before you check with references and can help identify potential issues before they arise. 

The basic application includes 6 background questions, but you can customize them and add up to 40 questions in total. To add your own questions to the application’s template, please go to the Settings menu on your dashboard and choose “Terms & Signature” from the “Rental application” section:

Under the "Background Questions" section you can add up to 40 of your own questions. To add a new question, press "Add a question" and enter the question into the field below. Then click on the "Confirm" button.

Tip: 
Yes/No answers are not always enough, so you can create background questions that require a short answer or additional explanation if necessary. 

Example:
Will you agree to a background/credit check? If not, please explain.

Can you provide references from your employer and previous landlord? If not, please explain.

Save the changes by clicking the "Update" button and that's it!

Please note! This section can be configured on the desktop version only.
