Beyond Credit and Background Checks: Real time reputation determination

Dave Chiu and Didier Hilhorst devised a tool called RentAThing that allows you to take your reputation with you wherever you go. [Check it out here].

I could see this working both ways in the apartment leasing world. It takes the renters resume to a whole new level. Not only that it would take an apartment management company (brand) to a whole new level. Be that good or bad.

Taking their broom example and applying it to the apartment space, a manager or a prospective resident could consult RentAThing in order to determine one’s nature of paying rent on time and or being a nuisance to the community. Likewise, the consumer could consult RentAThing to determine the nature of a property management company to get service requests done in a timely manner and or otherwise respond to the various needs of a resident.

Exciting stuff to say the least.
