Homaloc · Practical guide
Centralise rental applications
A listing can generate enquiries across several channels. Your team then has to work out who applied, which property they want and what information is available. Centralising starts with giving every application a clear place.
Create one entry point per property
Create a separate project for each rental property. Give it a recognisable name and add the information your team needs. Keeping projects separate prevents applicants for similar properties from getting mixed together.
In Homaloc, each project has a rental application form available through a link. Responses are attached to the relevant property as they arrive, so the team can review them in the corresponding project.
Share the application link
Send the application link to interested people in your replies or on channels that permit external links. When advertising on French portals such as SeLoger, Leboncoin or Bien’ici, use the sharing options each platform allows.
This is a link to your Homaloc form. It does not require or imply an automatic integration with a property portal, and each platform’s publishing rules still apply.
Collect information consistently
Free-form conversations often lead to different follow-up questions for every person. A common form gives your team a more consistent starting point, including the applicant’s declared situation and the information needed for follow-up.
Check the responses before asking for additional details. If something is missing, make the request specific. An incomplete response is a reason to clarify the situation, rather than a conclusion about the applicant.
Keep the next step visible
Review responses by property and use tracking statuses to distinguish applications awaiting review from those already handled. A shared workspace is useful when everyone understands what should happen next.
Homaloc brings responses together and helps your team compare them. Checking information, speaking with applicants and deciding how to proceed remain the agency’s responsibility. The aim is to spend less time sorting and more time on useful conversations.
