Clara's application is standardized by design, ensuring every renter goes through the same verified, consistent screening process that landlords and renters can trust.
What You Can Customize
While the core application questions remain consistent, you have meaningful control over your screening requirements:
- Toggle requirements on or off - Mark any section as required, optional, or remove it entirely
- Set minimum criteria - Input minimum credit score and income thresholds
- Lease-specific details - Customize rent amount, deposit, move-in date, and availability
- Pet and vehicle requirements - Include or exclude based on your property
Most landlords find Clara's default settings cover everything they need.
Why Clara's Application Is Standardized
A consistent, structured application protects everyone:
For you: Every renter submits the same verified, objective data, making it easy to compare applicants fairly and compliantly.
For renters: They know exactly what to expect, which means faster, more complete submissions for you.
For compliance: Standardized screening supports fair housing best practices by applying the same process to every applicant.
