Project Background
Challenges
The traditional rental process is fragmented, requiring tenants to navigate multiple steps across different platforms, leading to inefficiencies and delays. Elfi needed a comprehensive digital solution to streamline this experience from start to finish. The platform needed to conduct financial screenings upfront to eliminate ineligible applicants, ensuring only qualified individuals proceed. To simplify property viewings, seamless appointment scheduling was essential, allowing prospective tenants to book viewings at their convenience. After viewing properties, tenants should be able to rank their preferred apartments, enabling landlords to match applicants with suitable units. Additionally, the platform needed to offer tenants the option to subscribe to essential home services, such as furniture, internet, and maintenance, directly within the system. For landlords and service providers, a centralized admin panel was crucial to manage applications, view preferences, and oversee service offerings. Lastly, the platform had to be scalable, with the capability to onboard additional real estate brokers and white-label partners, expanding its reach and market impact.
