Answers about Apply by Cazamio, NYC rental applications, pricing, compliance, screening, and group application workflows.
Is Apply by Cazamio only for NYC?
Yes — we're laser-focused on the New York City rental market. Our platform is built specifically for the unique requirements of NYC real estate: guarantor workflows, multi-tenant applications, and the fast-paced nature of Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, and the Bronx rentals. We verify NYS real estate licenses and understand NYC landlord expectations.
Is Apply by Cazamio really free for agents?
Yes, 100% free. Unlimited applications, full applicant management, PDF package builder, and real-time updates — all at no cost. We sustain the platform through the $20 tenant screening fee.
How do group applications work with roommates and guarantors?
Every application gets a unique 6-character group code. When multiple people need to apply together — roommates, couples, or tenants with guarantors — they all use the same code to join the same application. Each person completes their own portion, and agents see everyone's progress in a single unified view.
What service do you use to run credit and background checks?
We use a compliant screening partner. The $20 tenant fee covers a credit report, which runs immediately upon payment. Criminal background checks are a separate premium add-on that agents can purchase ($14) — but only after issuing a conditional offer, per NYC Fair Chance for Housing Act requirements.
