### "Avail helps my new company"

December 6, 2019

4.0

Avail has helped me to stay organized with collecting tenant payments and automatically issue late fees. This was a great addition to my new business

Pros

I like that it can collect rent and even split it amongst roommates

Cons

The depositing of tenant money. Tenant money was scheduled to clear 5 days later

Hi Aisha, Robert here. I'm one of Avail's Community Managers, and I wanted to follow-up to say thank you for being a valued Avail user. Furthermore, thank you for leaving such a thorough review of Avail! I've personally made note of the concerns that you've mentioned within your review (in terms of the deposit delay and CS issues), and I must sincerely apologize for any problems you've experienced with the customer service team. We always strive to provide top-line service and it sounds like that may not have been the case. I completely understand the frustration. If you'd like, please feel free to send this along with any other constructive feedback over to me (robert@avail.co). Thank you again for the honest review and keep in mind that we're always here as a resource for you! :) Kindly, Robert B. Community Manager @ Avail.co

Ease of use and ability to share with tenants

Hi Amy, Thank you so much for the glowing review. I can't begin to thank you enough! For many landlords out there who have a lot of questions and might be hesitating to join Avail, feedback like yours makes it clear why they should. I've also noted your mention of being able to print off hard copies of the forms to keep for your records. I'm going to make sure I relay this feedback to my product team. There are certain print capabilities (in terms of printing applications) but sometimes the formatting can get thrown off a little bit. I definitely think this is an area we could improve upon. Again, I can't thank you enough for your glowing recommendation. On behalf of my team, thank you so so much for choosing Avail! Best, Robert B., Community Manager @ Avail.co

Hi Gregory! Thank you for sharing your experience as an Avail user with other landlords -- this is a tremendous help and we're very appreciative to have a rental property owner like you using (and loving) our platform.

As for the request for a message board with inbox, this is definitely something I'll be sure to get in front of my head of product so to inform our product roadmap. Thank you so much again for the kind review and I'll be sure to share this information with the rest of the team (especially my colleagues in support!). Kindly, Robert B.

Digital platform for documentation transactions

Hi! Robert here. I'm one of Avail's Community Managers, and I wanted to follow-up to say thank you for being a valued Avail user (and thank you so much for the honest review). As you may know, we are making a lot of changes to the platform (all exciting updates that members have asked for), but with those changes, we realize that it can take time to iron out all of the glitches and that can lead to a not so great experience. For this I do sincerely apologize. We are working on several navigation updates and other bug fixes. I'd love to hear more about what you'd like to see changed, and what we can do to make Avail a product you'd recommend to others. Please email me (robert@avail.co), and we can get a follow-up call scheduled! Thank you so much for the honest review and keep in mind that we're here as a resource for you. Kindly, Robert B.

### "Amazing product "

December 8, 2019

5.0

Getting customers set up. They say it’s hard. And navigating what payments have come thru. I hate having to wait to get paid in a few days. Why charge for quicker payments?

Pros

I love how Easy it is to use and collect payments. Saves me a ton of man hours instead of collecting payments from people individually. I like the set up for myself and how it puts money right into my account!

Cons

I don’t like the dashboard. It’s confusing trying to navigate individual properties and I think seeing what they paid could be easier to navigate. And my tenants have kind of struggled getting it set up.

### "Great System for Owner/Renters"

May 2, 2019

5.0

It's very low effort from us.

Pros

It's a great place for owners that need softeware for both leases and payments.

Cons

We had to get support to put in the same bank account into two different online accounts, but after some work with the developers, they finally changed their system to acommodate us.

### "Slow to pay"

December 6, 2019

4.0

I was able to find potential rentals, but the client we went with was from advertising from a different venue. Nice visuals, great for someone who has never been a landlord before, but not worth the hassle of waiting for payments to go through and upsetting clients.

Pros

The visual organization and ease for a newbie to start renting.

Cons

If it takes the payments that long to transfer, it’s just not worth it.

May 13, 2019

5.0

I like getting automated payments from tenants. I also like how they notify the tenant if rent is due, or late.

Pros

Once you get in, the system is easy to track tenants. From their payments, to invoices. I like that.

Cons

Its hard to get the tenant set up for online payments. You have to almost walk them through it and follow up several times.

Hi Greg, My name is Robert and I'm one of Avail's Community Managers. I just wanted to follow-up to say thank you for being a valued Avail user (and thank you so much for the honest review)! Many landlords have reached out about offering more resources during the tenant on-boarding process. We've made it so that, during the tenant on-boarding process, many instructional emails are sent; this said we are working to provide further in-app steps to hopefully make things a bit more intuitive for tenants who are just getting started. I'd love to hear more about what you'd like to see changed, and what we can do to make Avail a product you'd recommend to others. Please email me (robert@avail.co), and we can get a follow-up call scheduled! Thank you so much for the honest review and keep in mind that we're here as a resource for you. Kindly, Robert B.

### "Renting Made Easy"

November 5, 2019

5.0

Avail follows up with my tenants so I don't have to! I love that it encourages them to schedule their payments, pay on time, and submit required paperwork so that those messages are coming from a third party instead of from me. I feel more confident in dealing with tenants as a first-time landlord.

Pros

Ability to schedule payments and act as a go-between between landlord and tenants

Cons

It is not intuitive to locate the messaging center; you have to go through the Lease page to see messages to and from tenants.

Hi Deborah, Thank you so much for the 5-star review. These are all valid reasons why someone should make the switch over to Avail, and a review like yours makes it even easier for other rental property owners to find us.

Being able to get auto-payed from my tenants

Pros

I am fairly new to being a landlord, and making sure that getting payments from my tenants was my top concern. With Avail, it made that process as simple as it could be. You can setup reminders for your tenants, they can setup auto-pay right out of their account into mine. I can even choose to charge late fees automatically.

Cons

Can't think of any cons. it is super easy to use.

### "Switched to Avail and Not Looking Back"

May 11, 2019

5.0

I switched to using Avail after being a user with Cozy for a few years. The choice was pretty easy to make once I learned how in-depth the tenant screening Avail does, the reports (background, credit, evictions), the digital lease creation and signature feature, and on top of that auto payments from tenants. If you treat your real estate like a business, then Avail is for you.

Pros

Very thorough tenant screening (verifies last 5 years of tenant history Background, credit, eviction checks are seamless in application process Easy to create and sign leases Auto rent collection

Cons

I didn't hear about this sooner (really got lucky with choosing tenants, previously--phew!)
