Jotform
Best all rounder
The most complete fit for real estate: ready made templates for rental applications, showing requests and lead capture, payments and e signature built in, and integrations into most agent CRMs. The tradeoff is single user seats below Enterprise, so a team pays per person, and the interface can feel busy.
Built for the document heavy side of property work, with repeating sections for occupants, calculations for fees and prorated rent, and payments that work even on the free plan. Design is plain and the integration list is shorter than Jotform's, but for structured applications the value is excellent.
Where a buyer or seller lead form needs to feel inviting and get finished, Typeform's one question at a time flow lifts completion. It is strong for capturing and qualifying leads; just watch the response based pricing as inbound volume grows, and note it has lighter document and payment tooling.
A genuinely free way to run intake, showing requests and simple applications, with unlimited submissions and Stripe payments included. A solo agent can run on the free plan indefinitely. Branding removal and a custom domain wait behind the Pro plan, and the ecosystem is younger than the leaders.
Closer to a page builder than a form, so listing inquiry and booking forms can carry full branding and imagery, which suits agencies selling a polished look. The entry price is higher than the free options, and there is a learning curve before the design tools pay off.
Free, familiar and instantly connected to Sheets for quick open house signups or feedback. It is the fastest way to collect simple responses, but with no payments, basic logic and plain design it will not handle applications or transactions on its own.
