From 72 Hours to 15 Minutes: Turning Leasing into an E-Commerce Experience

Video recap: Watch our two-minute walkthrough of DashQ Checkout in action

Leasing approvals are still stuck in the fax era

Approvals are one of the slowest, messiest parts of renting. Prospective residents wrestle with clunky PDFs and wonder what’s next, while leasing teams chase documents across overflowing inboxes. Managers, meanwhile, have zero line-of-sight to fix the bottlenecks. The result? Units sit empty and revenue leaks away – a few days here and there quickly compound across a portfolio.

Our north star: Renting should feel as easy as booking a hotel

That mantra shaped DashQ Checkout from day one. We set out to deliver the instant, mobile-first flow renters expect – and the structured back-office system operators need.

Meet the new approvals playbook

Old Way ❌

  • Upload PDFs, wait 72+ hrs
  • Manual ID & income checks
  • Endless “Where’s this file?” Slacks
  • Re-enter data into leases
  • Chase e-transfers / refund cheques

With DashQ Checkout ✅

  • Complete an application in < 2 minutes
  • Selfie + ID scan + bank connect; system verifies instantly
  • Approvals Queue gives every app an owner, a status, and a clear next step
  • Auto-filled leases & addendums—error-free, compliant, ready same day
  • No-chase deposit holds that expire automatically if an app is declined

Built for the real world, not a demo deck

  • Mid-application unit changes when a renter switches suites
  • Linked roommate & co-signer flows that stay perfectly in sync
  • Rollbacks for quick tweaks without starting over
  • Move-in date rules to prevent 90-day “ghost reservations”

The numbers that move the needle

  • Applications finished: as fast as 2 minutes
  • Approvals complete: < 15 minutes (down from 72 hours)
  • 70 % of leases close end-to-end without manual touch
  • $10.5 M+ in leases processed every month – and climbing

These aren’t vanity stats; they’re real-world gains that free your team to focus on high-value conversations instead of low-value busywork.
