ManageCasa Partners with RentSmart to Streamline Leasing and Property Management Workflows
Today, ManageCasa announced a partnership with RentSmart to provide a more connected leasing and property management experience for rental property managers. The partnership aims to accelerate the path from listing to lease to ongoing resident management.
In today’s rental market, property managers face increasing pressure to streamline leasing while maintaining a strong resident experience. As affordability pressures rise nationwide and operators work to reduce vacancy losses, the rental market continues to shift rapidly. A faster path from screening to signed leases and rent payments matters more than ever.
ManageCasa's partnership with RentSmart speeds up the path from listing to lease to ongoing resident management, filling units fast with one clean connected workflow.
Disconnected workflows between screening, leasing, and daily operations slow response times and create friction for both managers and residents. Worse, missed payments, evictions, fraud, and squatting risks are up across the United States. According to a Harvard 2026 report, 49% of U.S. renter households are now considered cost burdened, meaning they spend more than 30% of their income on housing costs, while 26% spend more than half of their income on rent and utilities. These market pressures have increased demand for more connected leasing and property management workflows.
This partnership brings together RentSmart’s tenant screening and leasing workflow tools with ManageCasa’s all-in-one property management platform, helping property managers move seamlessly from lead generation to long-term resident management.
With the integration, property and unit information entered into ManageCasa can be sent directly into RentSmart. From there, rental listings are syndicated across marketplace channels where RentSmart manages complete leasing workflows including showing coordination, lead nurturing, and prospective tenant screening.
But the integration does not stop at leasing. Approved RentSmart prospects seamlessly become tenants within ManageCasa, creating a connected workflow from application through ongoing resident management.
RentSmart puts leasing on autopilot, with automated showings, 24/7 communication, and AI Verification. The platform is free to use.
Through this new integration, after screening, approved tenants transition directly into the ManageCasa platform, where they can access lease details, submit maintenance tickets, communicate with management, and pay rent online through the resident portal.
Though ManageCasa's tenant portal, tenants can easily see lease details, submit maintenance tickets, communicate with management, and pay rent.
“Our goal has always been to reduce operational friction for property managers,” said Peter Koch. “RentSmart specializes in listing, lead generation, tenant screening and leasing workflows, while ManageCasa handles the day-to-day operations of property management and finance. Together, we provide a streamlined experience from listing to lease and beyond.”
Unlike many tenant screening and showing coordination platforms, RentSmart is free for ManageCasa clients. RentSmart’s service generates revenue through the screening process itself, at no cost to users. This allows property managers to improve leasing operations without adding additional software costs.
“The aim was to support the entire rental lifecycle. From first showing to maintenance requests," said Koch. “With RentSmart and ManageCasa as partners, screening, leasing, and long-term management are combined into a single workflow.”
The integration is also designed to reduce duplicate data entry and eliminate disconnected workflows between leasing and operations teams.
Once units are created in ManageCasa, property details can flow directly into RentSmart for marketing, applicant management, and screening. No details ever slip through the cracks.
