Turn leads into bookings with Concurrent’s Book Now feature

Are you looking for ways to streamline the booking process? Are you tired of unnecessary delays in the pre-application stage? With Concurrent's Book Now feature, you can empower tenants to book directly from your listings, without even needing to speak to you. It's never been easier to turn leads into bookings. 

What is Book Now?

What if your tenant could book a property with just the click of a button? By using Concurrent to power Book Now buttons on your website or other platforms, you're giving tenants the ability to book your properties directly from your listings. When tenants are interested in a property, they simply need to click the 'Book Now' button and they will be able to book immediately, either individually or as a group, without any unnecessary pre-application admin. 

To facilitate this, you just need to set the details and rules of each unit available. When tenants are interested, they will then only be able to book the fixed terms of availability you have set out. You don't need to waste time communicating with prospective tenants before they have begun the booking process; as the availabilities of your properties are clearly defined from the outset, the journey can begin efficiently, effortlessly, and seamlessly for both parties.

Clicking Book Now will trigger Concurrent's digital contract signing functionality, which allows both tenants and guarantors to sign your property's contract online. This means you no longer need to invest in costly third-party contract-signing solutions. With one fully integrated and cost-efficient solution, you can take bookings directly from your own website and create a customised, on-brand, and visually engaging contract signing experience.

As part of the process, tenants will provide all required information, upload documentation, and review and sign the tenancy agreement there and then. You'll also be able to collect deposits or advance rent as part of the integrated booking journey.

To complete the entire process, you just need to review the submitted bookings (along with the results of any reference check or right-to-rent checks you requested Concurrent to automatically carry out) and countersign - then you'll be ready to welcome your new tenants. 

Book Now tenancies complete 42% faster than tenancies sent out manually by property managers. The booking process has never been simpler or more streamlined, for both student tenants and property managers. 

How to use Book Now

To use Book Now effectively, you need to set up contract templates for each property. You can have multiple contracts set up for a single property if you choose. You also need to edit and confirm the availability of the property. When using Book Now, the tenant will be able to see both the contract title and property availability before progressing.

For each contract term, you can set the following:

• The contract template used
• Start/end dates for the tenancy and minimum contract length
• If the start date is fixed
• When you want to collect deposits (and fees if applicable)
• Rent schedules and guarantor requirements specific to the schedule
• What bills are included
• Room prices
