As an asset manager of multifamily properties, you know stable income means everything. To you, your team and, most important, your owners, nothing ranks higher in priority than predictable revenue. Because when it comes time to sell or refinance an asset, the due diligence team will ‘look under the hood’ to assess the defensibility of your cash flow analysis. Because the most qualified tenants are the source of the most predictable revenue, and defensible revenue points to strong asset value, investing in sourcing and placing great tenants only makes sense.
Do you rely on resources delivering accuracy and insight regarding prospect income, or do you continue to leave yourself – and your owners – open to liability exposure and considerable uncertainty by relying on the manually-intensive and inherently biased process of requesting, collecting, and reviewing pay stubs? Traditional methods of income verification, such as evaluating pay stubs, tax returns, or bank statements, are time-consuming, unreliable, and prone to fraud (~15% of applicant-shared documents have been falsified). Historic methods also exclude many potential tenants who have non-traditional or irregular income sources, such as commission-based employees, gig workers, freelancers, or self-employed individuals. For these prospects, the fastest growing category of employees in the U.S., the dollar value of their income, if steady, carries as much buying power and ought to be given equal consideration as more traditional earners. With the increasing prevalence of prospects leaning on side hustles, can your properties afford to categorically rule out well-qualified prospects simply because their source of income is historically more difficult to identify?
