Kuala Lumpur, 30 Nov 2021 – Rumah-i has introduced an end-to-end property rental tool bringing new levels of simplicity, convenience and security for both property investors and tenants. The multifaceted app acts as a one-stop solution with the ability to list a property for rent, interact with interested parties and sign paperwork amongst a growing list of services.
Commenting on the app, Bryan Tan, CEO and Founder of Rumah-i noted, “Rumah-i brings property rental to your fingertips. In the past, we have seen that the property market has been dominated by certain segments, we want to change this and make the market more open to all. By providing a free platform for property listings, Rumah-i decentralises the property rental market by breaking down conventional market barriers through accessible tools that simplify the whole property rental cycle. Rumah-i also revolutionizes the room rental market by simplifying the process and adding an element of security for both the landlords and tenants.”
Rumah-i functions as an integrated property rental solution, it streamlines the process and guides investors through every step of a successful renting endeavour. Through a basic 4-step strategy Rumah-i engages with property investors to identify target tenant demographics from there Rumah-i’s experts devise a costing, marketing, listing and even makeover strategies that is tailored to the target audience.
Rumah-i essentially functions across 4 key pillars: home matching, rental tools, ancillary services as well as loyalty and benefits. Rumah-i’s home matching functionalities combine a viewing manager, agent star rating mechanism, credibility ranking systems and smart recommendations to streamline tenant search and property viewings.
Through Rumah-i’s rental tools, finding the right tenant is easier than ever with renters’ profiles complete with credit scores to help landlords assess default risk. Once the match has been made, Rumah-i offers Malaysia’s first digital tenancy feature that complies with the Digital Signature Act 1997. This allows both parties to safely, securely and conveniently confirm legal matters of the tenancy. Importantly, this feature also meets Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) standards creating a more eco-friendly environment by digitalising more aspects of the tenancy process.
From there, landlords and tenants can expect easier communications and dealings through Rumah-i with the auto rental collection system, damage reporting mechanisms equipped with an inhouse repair team to address damages as well as an up-to-date tenancy overview. Rumah-i also features an in-app chat functionality which offers a neutral space for landlords to communicate with their tenants without sacrificing their privacy.
“Renting out a property can so often be unnecessarily complicated and tedious. There are so many steps and many of them just take too much of your time. With Rumah-i we wanted to simplify all of that. Now it is all hassle free, property owners can begin their listing and close a tenancy agreement all through our app from the comfort of their own home. It is all just one tap away,” Bryan added.
“We know that the work does not just end when you lock-in a tenant. In some cases, that’s when the real work begins. This is why we offer a wide-array of services that look to help tenants with everyday services. This ultimately allows landlords to offer a more full-service experience to their tenants. We believe these added services are crucial elements of a holistic solution that addresses the full process of renting out a property,” Bryan noted.
Rumah-i is also working towards building an i-Community for tenants and property investors to nurture increased community engagement where renters are able to enjoy a better quality of life. Rumah-i will facilitate a Green, Sustainable and Trusted lifestyle through the development of the i-Community feature. The in-app services are designed to provide renters with the confidence that the property that they are living in is cared for and properly maintained. The app also features rent payment tools and a reward system that allow renters to receive benefits and discounts.
Rumah-i was founded by Bryan in 2019 after experiencing difficulties in renting out his own properties and finding that the existing market solutions did not meet his goal of a quick, easy and convenient experience. Rumah-i looks to continue its commitment to enhancing various aspects of the rental market by introducing more features in the coming months.
The Rumah-i app is available for download on the Apple app store and Google Playstore. For more info on Rumah-i visit: rumah-i.com.
