Of course those are still required. But as landlords sometimes receive several hundred replies to an ad you will not even make it into the further selection process if you're not fast, as most people just consider the first ten or twenty people and choose among them. In that sense they're not looking for the perfect renter, but just for an acceptable one.
- spaceflunky 10y agoI suppose this makes sense if you're renting a unit in a massive apartment block or from a large property management agency. My guess is that a quicker reply would give you little to no advantage when it comes to mom&pop landlords who only have a couple units to lease out. All but one of the places I've rented have been from small time landlords and they seemed to put more work into than just who replied the fastest.
