FAQ [#faq]

What should a landlord optimize first? [#what-should-a-landlord-optimize-first]

A landlord should optimize inquiry response speed, listing quality, showing availability, application friction, and price-market fit. These factors determine whether a rental listing converts quickly or loses momentum.

When does rental listing performance become a problem? [#when-does-rental-listing-performance-become-a-problem]

Listing performance should be diagnosed in the first 72 hours, reviewed by day 7, and escalated by day 14 if inquiry velocity, tours, or applications are weak. Long delays increase vacancy cost.

Which Botway docs should landlords read first? [#which-botway-docs-should-landlords-read-first]

Start with first 72 hours launch velocity, first 7 days leasing window, true vacancy cost, tenant underwriting, security deposit compliance, fair housing decision discipline, and lease anatomy.
