move out turnovers with AI

Prevent inconsistent turnovers and learn how AI can make inspections and turnovers a breeze in this webinar recap about Market Ready Turn, a new platform integrated with your Rentec Direct software.


Turnovers have a way of going differently depending on who walks the unit. But inconsistency can kill efficiency when it comes to getting a rental unit market-ready. That’s why property manager, Jarrod Knight, created a product to streamline the turnover process from walkthrough to market-ready, helping landlords and property managers get their units occupied and collecting rent as quickly as possible.

I had the pleasure of meeting with Jarrod to discuss his software, Market Ready Turn, a digital platform designed for landlords and property managers to inspect their rental properties and instantly create work orders. But Market Ready Turn is so much more than a simple inspection app, the software uses AI technology to take verbal walkthrough notes into an automated 6 phase to do list.

Market Ready Turn Works in Six Phases 

  1. Move-Out Inspection: Document the unit room-by-room, and let AI generate a graded repair list automatically.
  2. Work Orders: Get owner approval, assign tasks to vendors, and push work orders directly into your Rentec Direct account.
  3. Vendor Verification: Re-walk completed work, have AI grade the results, and turn any open items into a punch list.
  4. Cleaning: Assign a cleaner to the unit and verify the clean meets standards.
  5. Market Ready Scorecard: Receive a clear Approval, Review, or Exception verdict along with complete reasoning behind it.
  6. Listing Package: Finalize listings faster with AI-drafted listing text that’s ready to publish.

See Market Ready Turn in Action 

Jarrod gave us a live demo of Market Ready Turn which you can check out in the video below. I loved seeing how the software took simple notes and photos and turned it into a usable report with action items for your team. Plus the direct connection between Rentec Direct and Market Ready Turn means no double-entry and reports are automatically synced to your property management software.
Here are a couple other time saving features Jarrod created that you’ll also love about Market Ready Turn

Key Takeaways

  • Rentec Direct stays the source of truth. Your properties and vendors pull in from your Rentec account, so nobody types anything twice.
  • Inspectors just say what they see. Talk into your phone, snap photos, and the AI turns rough notes into a clean report. In the demo, “that roof is a mess” came back as a description of deteriorated shingles with missing sections. You’ll leave the unit with a move-out checklist and vendor repair list without needing to do any additional review.
  • It catches what gets skipped. The walkthrough prompts cover every room, including how the place smells, or items that might get passed over like a water shutoff valve.
  • Work orders land in Rentec. Assign items to vendors, push them, and they show up in Rentec as work orders with the checklist attached. Reports save to the property’s file library, where you can share them with owners.
  • Deposit itemizations are built in. Anything flagged during the inspection pre-fills a statement with photos. This type of documentation helps you meet your legal responsibility for itemizing a security deposit deduction and how much will get returned to a tenant.
  • The dashboard shows your numbers. Your Market Ready Turn dashboard tracks days to market, time in each phase and vendor performance. 

Connecting Rentec Direct to Market Ready Turn

Setup takes about a minute thanks to Rentec Direct’s API keys and the integration with Market Ready Turn.

Market Ready Turn and Rentec Direct can connect by generating an API key in your Rentec Direct account, we have provided simple instructions here: Integrated Feature | Market Ready Turn API Connection

For Rentec Direct clients, the integration removes the double-entry: properties, owners, and vendors info flows in from your Rentec Direct account, and work orders flow back out with one tap. The unit goes from move-out inspection to re-listed without your team entering the same data twice.
