RentCheck raises $3.6 million to automate rental property inspections

New Orleans-based RentCheck has raised a combined $3.6 million through its pre-seed and seed rounds.

Founded in 2019, its digital platform provides a way for property managers to facilitate and conduct remote, guided property inspections; taking aim at the tenant “deposit deduction” problem.

“In the future, we believe that transparency will be the key to renting. Property managers and landlords will need to treat their relationships with tenants as a partnership, something that, in the past, hasn’t been the case. RentCheck is bringing tenants, property owners, and managers together on a single platform that’s built on trust, and it’s proving to be a better, smoother, and more efficient experience.” – Marco Nelson, RentCheck’s Co-Founder and CEO.

RentCheck stands to introduce a revolutionary sense of transparency to the rental market for both renters and landlords. Many people, at one point or another, have had a dispute over their security deposit. But RentCheck’s technology will introduce a new level of transparency into the process. The platform was built specifically with both tenants and property managers in mind, giving the company a crucial edge over competitors in the space — competitors that mostly build software for property managers — as it prepares to disrupt the market with full force.
