Recommendations for using the Online Application and Background Screening Feature

Property Managers/Landlords > Online Applications
We’re excited to announce that eRentPayment has partnered with RentRedi! As part of this partnership, eRentPayment customers can now access RentRedi’s online application and tenant screening features to streamline rental management.

With RentRedi, you have two application options:

  1. Applications with auto-tenant screening (recommended): Enable auto-tenant screening to automatically run tenant screening as part of the application process. This ensures you receive screening results without extra steps.
    • By enabling auto-tenant screening, each application you receive will automatically come with a tenant screening. You can easily turn on auto-tenant screening by following these instructions.
  2. Applications without auto-tenant screening: If you prefer to screen only select applicants, you can leave auto-tenant screening turned off.
Landlords can invite the potential tenants to apply with either screening option. Then, tenants submit their application through RentRedi's mobile app or web portal (tenant.rentredi.com)—with all questions and requirements pre-configured for you! 
After the application and screening are complete, you can review and accept or reject the application based on your criteria!

Important Notes

  • You do not need to approve a tenant application to request a screening. We recommend running tenant screening before accepting an application.

  • If a tenant has already submitted an application, you can still manually request the screening. The tenant will receive a notification prompting them to complete the screening process.
