Need to screen a tenant or guarantor who didn’t apply—or already applied outside of RentRedi?

No worries! You can easily request a screening right from your dashboard! 😄

Step 1: Adding the tenant to their unit

  1. On your RentRedi dashboard, click Renters

  2. Click the Add button at the top right

  3. You'll see a pop-up to invite a tenant to RentRedi

  4. Select the property address and unit where you want to add the tenant

  5. Fill out the tenant's name, email address, and phone number

  6. On "Send Invite", select between sending "Now" or "Skip/Later"

  7. Click Add Tenant

  8. The invite will be sent to connect to the unit

Step 2: Requesting the screening from the tenant card

  1. After adding the tenant, you can find them in the Renters section of your dashboard

  2. Click on the tenant card to view their details

  3. You'll see a blue Screen Tenant button at the bottom

  4. Review the details, and if you would like to include the report for income & verification

  5. Confirm and send by clicking the Request button

Done! 🎉 The tenant will receive a screening invite in their RentRedi app.

Note: You can also invite the tenant to apply first if you’d like them to submit an application in RentRedi. Check out this article for more details on how to send an invite!
