5 Features to Include in Your Digital PropTech Forms
Seamlessly enhance PropTech data collection with these powerful digital form features
PropTech addresses the challenges faced by clients and teams researching, renting, buying, selling, or managing properties. The real estate industry has grappled for too long with manual, tedious leasing and payment processes, unaffordability, lack of flexibility, and more. Paper forms only add to these inconveniences. By digitizing paper forms, paper pile-ups can become a thing of the past, allowing teams to collaborate across a variety of locations, increasing efficiency and productivity within the real estate industry.
Fortunately, digital and online forms provide an easy solution for real estate companies looking to join the current wave of PropTech digital transformation. Check out these five features to include in your digital forms when completing lease agreements, purchase agreements, and more:
Electronic Signatures
Adding electronic signature capture to your digital and online forms is quick and easy - requiring no code or IT assistance. Simply drag and drop a Signature field onto your form and adjust the height and width of the field to fit your unique signing needs. Elevate your Signature fields even further by making them Required, ensuring your forms are completed prior to submitting. You can even dynamically change the Background Color of your Signature fields based on a user’s input or field selection, guiding data entry.
Date Fields
Contracts of all kinds frequently require dates to be entered when submitting authorizations and signing lease agreements or purchase agreements. Date fields oftentimes accompany input Signature fields, move in dates, closing dates, loan estimates, and more. Date fields can be easily configured to instantly populate the second a form is generated or when a specific field has been completed.
Automated Workflows
One of the various benefits of leveraging GoFormz is the ability to route collected data to other collaborating team members and connected platforms in real-time via Automated Workflows. Automated Workflows are repeatable business processes that result from predetermined Triggers. For example, if your PropTech company had a listing up on their website, the property manager can attach a Public Form to the listing, allowing anyone outside of the GoFormz platform to fill out this form. Once the form is completed, a PDF copy of the form can be automatically routed to corresponding members in real-time, resulting in instant access to potential home buyers or tenant information.
To enhance Automated Workflows, GoFormz offers a robust API tool with ready-to-use integrations to business applications like Google Suite, Salesforce, Egnyte, and more. This functionality means GoFormz can be your data capture platform for your entire business, providing your business operations with a constant exchange of collected data and business systems, expediting the data collection process while using existing data.
Replicate Fields
Reentering the same information throughout your documents can be tiresome and oftentimes leads to human error. Using Replicate fields, information entered within a field can be instantly populated within corresponding fields throughout your digital forms. For example, if an individual had to type their name throughout various locations of their home purchase agreements, simply entering their name once into a field can populate each instance of the Replicated field throughout the form. This feature can be easily applied in the GoFormz Template Editor, significantly accelerating data entry.
Conditional Logic
Traditional forms don’t offer teams the ability to customize their forms the way digital forms can. Through Conditional Logic, fields can be made Hidden/Visible, highlighted, or Required, by applying certain parameters to field values. For example, if certain sections require Signatures for a rental lease agreement and there is a co-signer involved, additional fields can populate to capture additional information in the same location, making data capture simpler than ever before.
