Key features & enhancements
Online Leasing Fee Transparency
Prospects can now view a Full Disclosure Document that shows a list of all possible charges they could incur for the property they are applying to.
Screening Transparency: ETA Dashboard
Property teams now have visibility into when they can expect screening results through a new ETA dashboard in the RV Not Progressing Tab.
Pay by Text
Residents now have a convenient way to make electronic payments via text messaging, allowing them to easily stay on top of rent payments. Pay by Text can also further reduce the need for property teams to process in-person payments.
Gross Rent Change Automation
Entrata Affordable customers can take advantage of an enhanced Gross Rent Change (GRC) process. Certifications that require attention are now brought to the beginning of the workflow, ensuring that all required actions are taken before entering and processing a GRC.
Custom Income Limits
Entrata Affordable customers can now input custom income limits for each program in their Tax Credit Program setup, creating a fully customizable experience.
Student Turn Report
A new student turn report provides a single place to track resident movement without having to export data to a third-party software.
Add-Ons - Auto Move-In
Add-Ons at Student properties can now be moved in automatically with the lease, even if the move-in checklist is enabled. Rentable Items will be set to move in with the lease by default if the reservation start date and the lease start date are the same.
Entrata BI Student Dashboard
A new Student BI dashboard is now available, enabling student properties to manage their student data dynamically. This template can be duplicated and adjusted as needed.
Read Receipts for Notices
When a resident receives an emailed notice, Entrata will log if the resident opens the email containing the notice. This read receipt is recorded in the resident's activity log.
Specific Month Concessions
Properties can now create specials for specific months. When an applicant applies and qualifies for the special, Entrata will automatically add a one-time scheduled charge for the month(s) of their lease that should be concessed (according to the special setup).
Advanced Budgeting: Re-forecasting
Advanced Budgeting users can now re-forecast at will, & distribute new amounts across current year budget, while automatically updating future dependent budget.
Multiple-day Amenity Reservation
The reservation system in ResidentPortal now allows residents to select and reserve rentable amenities for multiple, consecutive days in a single request.
