Short answer

How does Burnt reduce rental application document fraud?

Rental application fraud detection identifies suspicious, inconsistent, or forged applicant information. Burnt focuses on reducing the document-fraud surface by verifying income and employment at the source wherever possible.

Screening workflow

The whole flow fits on one line.

Create the package, send the link, guide the renter, review the result. That simple path keeps screening understandable for applicants and manageable for teams.

01

Create the package

Choose application fields, verification modules, payer model, and property criteria.

02

Send the link

Invite the applicant by email, SMS, listing, dashboard action, or connected workflow.

03

Applicant completes

The renter consents, verifies identity, connects sources, and completes requested partner steps.

04

Review one package

Your team sees status, source-backed facts, partner context, exceptions, and notes together.
