I don't mean to be crass, but what are you showing here? It's not an app for landlords, but rather, a prototypical "lean startup" lead collection form. Have you built any of the real app? I think you'd be better served to do a "Show HN" once there's something to show.

Why is there no company listed or company locations? Why fill out such a full form without any product feature pictures or more information available? Not getting my info!

I imagine your conversion to be extremely low.
First pass. Click the link > Blank page.
Hit refresh. See a page and understand nothing.
Click the only button on the page and land on a form the size of the declaration. Leave.

OP: interested to hear the story behind this. Did you come across a landlord who needed these problems solved, or are you one yourself? How many users do you have?
Getting people an extra 7-10% out of their investment is no small feat. I live in a country (Australia) where the major cities are, in my opinion, slowly transitioning from primarily-owned to primarily-rented housing. That's a lot of property management money coming into circulation!
There is a lot of value to be captured if you can provide a better service than a property manager at a real estate chain... but those people are likely to be much better at handling worst-case scenarios involving bad tenants.

Tried again. Scroll hijacking, blurry fonts.
