ForLandlordsProperty managersApplicants

Who can do this

Applicant (public), after the manager uses Invite a new applicant.

Where to find it

Email Apply for <property> → Start my application.

Steps

  1. The usual application form opens, with first and last name already filled in.
  2. Email Address is locked to the invited address, with the hint Your screening invite was sent to this address.
  3. The applicant completes the form and clicks Submit.

What happens next

The application is linked to the waiting screening within about a minute. The order is placed and charged, and the status becomes Screening. The invite works even when the property or unit is closed for applications.

Troubleshooting

  • This screening link is no longer valid: the link expired (14 days), was already used, or was cancelled or replaced. The applicant can still apply normally, but no screening is attached. Order a new screening once the application arrives.
  • If the applicant applies with a different email than the one invited, the application isn't linked to the order.
  • If the submitted application still lacks something screening needs, the order waits. The applicant gets the Complete your rental application details email.
