Coconut + Rental Application: Complete Workflow
Preparing for rental application and using Coconut? Letting agents and referencing agencies require 3 months of bank statements to verify tenant income and affordability. Tenants need to provide clear, readable statements. BankScan AI bridges the gap between your bank's PDF statements and Coconut's import feature.
