The partnership addresses the specific complexities of the manufactured housing sector, where income streams are often non-traditional and home purchase agreements differ from standard multifamily leases. By embedding Rent Butter’s five core modules—covering identity, income, financial behavior, and criminal background checks—directly into the reservation process, ManageAmerica aims to replace slow, credit-only reports with real-time verification.

Christopher Rankin, CEO of Rent Butter, noted that four of the nation's ten largest operators already utilize their platform to navigate these screening challenges. According to company data, the integration offers significant financial protection: operators using Rent Butter have reported an 11-point increase in collection rates and a 36 percent reduction in default rates. With the average cost of a bad tenant placement estimated at over $7,200, the collaboration is positioned as a safeguard for community NOI.

Michelle Shanholtz, Chief Product Officer at ManageAmerica, stated that the integration creates a streamlined path from application to move-in. The tools are available immediately to all ManageAmerica customers, requiring no additional logins or external software to initiate screenings.
