What finally convinced some of my family members of that was that internet access is required in order to apply for housing. The last two times I moved, all rental applications were online only, without a physical form as a backup. Having a roof over your head requires not only having internet access, but having secure internet connection. I wouldn't trust putting personal details in on a library computer, for example.
- throwaway0a5e 6y agoI think you're renting classier apartments than me. I've always just seen the state's sample form often without any modification.
- bovermyer 6y agoIt's definitely changing. Even a decade ago, I was seeing home-grown leases, including some with clauses of questionable legality. Now, a lot of the rental complexes either have their own online system (if they're owned by a big management company), or they use something like Avail if they're a one-off. I pay my rent through Venmo for my current house. Times have changed.
- pnutjam 6y agoWoah, look at Mr. Fancypants with a state that cares about renters and provides a sample form.
