Screening
Choose applicant-paid, landlord-paid, or portfolio packages based on your market, compliance requirements, and screening volume.
Tenant screening pricing depends on who pays, which modules are included, and whether the team needs self-serve links, portfolio workflows, or integrations. Burnt supports both self-serve and sales-assisted screening motions.
Start with a familiar applicant-paid package, use operator-paid workflows where needed, and move to portfolio configuration when markets, owners, or integrations require it.
for the operator
A lightweight way to collect a rental application, invite an applicant, and keep the screening workflow ready for add-on modules.
per applicant where permitted
A familiar applicant-paid package for teams that need rental application, identity, partner credit, background, and eviction context.
or core package plus income add-on
Adds source-backed income and employment verification so teams can reduce pay-stub review and document back-and-forth.
for operators and partners
For property managers, multifamily portfolios, and proptech teams that need workflow configuration, integrations, and volume terms.
| Module | Application Only | Core Screening | Source Verified | Portfolio |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rental application | Included | Included | Included | Configurable |
| Applicant invite and status | Included | Included | Included | Included |
| Identity step | Optional | Included | Included | Included |
| Income and employment | Add-on | Add-on | Included | Configurable |

| API, webhooks, portfolio policy | No | No | No | Included |
Final package availability, payer model, credit/background/eviction coverage, taxes, and applicant fees depend on partner coverage and applicable law. Operators should confirm local screening-fee and adverse-action requirements before launch.
Burnt keeps the screening output compact, scannable, and tied to the workflow your team actually uses.
