Improving Off-Campus Renting Experience For Students

location

THE CHALLENGE

Finding off-campus housing was daunting for students due to a lack of tenant knowledge, while property owners often struggled to connect with reliable tenants. This disconnect creates issues, especially in the college housing market where inexperienced tenants are common.

Our client identified this gap in the market and wanted to provide helpful solutions for the tenant to get a suitable property or house and vice versa.

THE SOLUTION

BUILD A SECURE, ONE-STOP ONLINE PLATFORM

We have proposed a secure online platform for students, parents, property owners, and universities.

Our key implementation simplifies the process of finding rentals near universities, facilitates roommate matching, ensures ownership verification, streamlines maintenance requests, enables online rent payments through Stripe, and provides appointment booking for property visits. Additionally, PadLink prioritizes safety with messaging and notification features.

We build such a one-stop platform using Laravel technology.
