Affordable Housing

AI Leasing for Affordable Housing

Income prequalification against your AMI limits, right in the conversation — your team still verifies.

Betterbot's AI runs an income prequalification check in the conversation: it asks for household size and annual income, compares them with your property's own AMI income-limit tables for each tier, and shows which unit types the prospect may qualify for. It's self-reported prequalification; your team still verifies.

Frequently asked questions

Does Betterbot verify income?

No. The AI runs an income prequalification check in the conversation: it asks for household size and annual income and compares them with your property's own AMI income-limit tables to show which unit types the prospect may qualify for. It's prequalification from self-reported information, not income verification — your team still verifies.

Where do the income limits come from?

From your property's own AMI income-limit tables, per AMI tier and household size. Betterbot doesn't pull HUD or AMI data from an outside source.

Does Betterbot handle affordable housing compliance?

No. Compliance and income certification stay with your team and your existing process. Betterbot gives prospects an early, self-reported prequalification, and keeps applications moving with a documents checklist and request emails.

Can it suggest another property if this one doesn't fit?

Yes, when the prospect asks about other or nearby options and you've configured nearby properties, the AI can recommend them. It doesn't do this unprompted.
