At no additional cost, Hemlane allows you to add showing times for tenants to come check out the rental. You can add as many showing agents (yourself or a third party team member) and as many showing times as you'd like. These showing times are available for prospective tenants to view and schedule from your Hemlane listing page.

Keep in mind, when a prospective tenant is categorized as an inquiry, you receive an email with their contact information. If you click the [Reply] button, Hemlane has the link to the showing calendar at the bottom of this email. You can refer the tenant there to schedule and fill out the pre-screening questions. 

 

How do I send leads to the listing page to schedule a showing?

Prospective tenants can schedule a showing from your rental listing page on Hemlane. If you have Hemlane auto response settings turned on for your listing, Hemlane will automatically send prospective tenants the link to your listing page when they inquire about the property. For more details on our automated responses, please visit our article "Can Hemlane automatically respond to prospective tenant inquiries?"

 

If you need to send the listing page link to any prospective tenants, you can easily do so. For more information on how to find the listing link, please see our article "What link can I send to prospective tenants to apply or schedule a showing?"      

 

When a prospective tenant sends through an inquiry or signs up for a showing, they will be asked to answer qualification questions in order to better gauge them as a potential tenant. 

 

 

These qualification questions are set from the "Minimum Requirements" section of the Terms tab from the left side quick links menu.
