What's your Rental Readiness Score?

A few quick questions — documents, references, and a little context about your situation — and you get a score out of 100 based only on the applicable document categories you mark as ready, with unscored context notes. Free, no sign-up, about two minutes. The score does not predict an application decision.

Your context

This answer tailors the notes only. Your personal circumstances never change the score.

How are you earning at the moment?

Context only — it shapes the advice below, not your score.

How the score works

Your situation — context only

Work, income share and rental history shape the advice you get. They never move the score — your circumstances aren't graded.

References & preparation

Reference and pet answers can shape preparation notes, but are context only and never change the score.

Documents in hand

Every scored point comes from applicable document categories in this tool. Requirements still vary by property and recipient.

The score measures only the preparation categories and weighting displayed by this tool. It never predicts a landlord's or agent's decision.

Common questions

What is a Rental Readiness Score?

It is a free 0–100 preparation score based only on the applicable document categories you mark as ready. Work, income, rental-history and reference answers can change the preparation notes, but never the score. It is not an assessment by a landlord or agent.

Does a high score mean my application will be approved?

No. The score only reflects the preparation categories and weighting shown by this tool. It does not assess eligibility, compare applicants or predict a landlord's or agent's decision.

Is the readiness check really free?

Yes. The check is free and requires no sign-up. Your answers stay in your browser. If you allow analytics, we record pseudonymous usage events with the tool, market, an ephemeral attempt ID and standard attribution, without the answers you enter. A later RentFiles application is a separate flow.

What happens after I get my score?

You receive a preparation list for categories marked as not ready. If you want, you can then build a RentFiles application pack — filling it is free, and you pay only if you export the finished PDF.
