Tenant Creditworthiness in Real Estate: EDEX Immobilien x FINcredible

Issue 3 of the series “Quality Real Estate Agents in Conversation”

FINcredible in conversation with EDEX Immobilien GmbH about the importance of tenant creditworthiness checks in residential letting

EDEX Immobilien GmbH is one of Vienna’s leading real estate agencies. Since 2013, the company has successfully established itself as a full-service provider, specialising in the marketing of high-quality residential and commercial properties. EDEX Immobilien GmbH stands out for its professional expertise and extensive network of partners. Clients particularly value the company’s creative solutions and personalised service, which help build strong, long-lasting business relationships.

“We want our customers to feel comfortable. That’s why we pay close attention to how we communicate with them.”
Mr. Clemens Reimitz, MSc

To continue supporting this effort, EDEX Immobilien GmbH has been collaborating with FINcredible since 2021. The FINcredible Rental Check supports EDEX agents in their daily work and assists with the real estate transaction process for rental properties.

We had the honor of speaking with Mr. Clemens Reimitz, MSc (Managing Director), about topics such as agent quality and tenant creditworthiness.

For Mr. Clemens Reimitz, MSc, the characteristics of a successful, high-quality real estate agent are very clear:

“When it comes to the person looking for an apartment (the tenant), it is important for the real estate agent to develop an understanding of the tenant’s needs and to make the tenant feel comfortable throughout the entire brokerage process. The agent must be aware that they are helping the tenant find a new home. The agent must never lose sight of this fundamental understanding of their role throughout the entire marketing process. Precisely because this is a very personal matter, social skills and empathy are important qualities for a real estate agent.

With regard to the property owner (the landlord), it is important for the agent to be aware that they bear responsibility for another person’s property and, based on this responsibility, find a suitable tenant for the apartment.”
Mr. Clemens Reimitz, MSc

Improving the Quality of Real Estate Agents at EDEX Through the FINcredible Rental Check

“To provide high-quality services, you need the right people,” says Clemens Reimitz, MSc.

“At EDEX Immobilien, ensuring the quality of our real estate services begins with selecting the right employees. We place particular emphasis on a meticulous approach to work, enthusiasm for the job and a genuine passion for real estate. Furthermore, we maintain consistently high professional standards through continuous training opportunities, regular knowledge sharing and close collaboration within our team.”
Clemens Reimitz, MSc

The FINcredible Rental Check analyses a tenant’s creditworthiness based on up-to-date account data, accessed securely via open banking with the tenant’s consent. This means it takes into account not only income but also expenses.

“We see ourselves not only as a real estate brokerage service provider, but also as a partner who takes responsibility for the success of our business partners.”
Clemens Reimitz, MSc

The Importance of Tenant Creditworthiness in the Real Estate Industry

FINcredible offers its partners exclusive access to the FINcredible Rental Check portal, which handles the entire process and provides additional features such as status updates for upcoming checks, online access to results and certificate downloads. The creditworthiness assessment is completed within minutes and can be performed on any device.

FINcredible not only helps you find the right tenant, but also streamlines the process.

“For us, quality in real estate brokerage means providing our clients with excellent advice from the beginning and helping them make the right decisions.”
Mr. Clemens Reimitz, MSc

Clemens Reimitz, MSc, describes the importance of tenant creditworthiness as follows: “Tenant creditworthiness is essential for successfully renting out our properties and ensuring risk-free leasing for our clients. FINcredible offers three key advantages in this regard. First, it enables our real estate agents to check tenant creditworthiness in a simplified and time-saving manner. Second, FINcredible allows landlords to take a closer look and thereby reduce their financial risk. And third, FINcredible creates equal opportunities in the allocation of apartments, even for tenants with unique income situations.”

FINcredible would like to thank Mr. Clemens Reimitz, MSc, of EDEX Immobilien GmbH for an interesting discussion on the topic of quality real estate agents and looks forward to many more years of successful collaboration!
