Rental Platform Development

The Story

The client sought to digitize the rental process by enabling landlords to list properties, share links, and shortlist tenants based on ratings. Rent Guarantee Insurance (RGI) was included to mitigate financial risks. FiftyFive Technologies was engaged to deliver dedicated quality assurance services, ensuring platform stability, accurate calculations, and user confidence. The engagement was executed under an Agile sprint model with a remote QA team extension.

A UK-based rental platform simplifying property management for landlords with tenant selection technology, rent guarantee insurance, and financial security services, serving a growing market of digital-first property owners.
