For tenants

A tenant on Rentiqa rents a home on a lease. The typical path: find a home and ask about it or book a tour, apply once with an application you can reuse, sign the lease online, pay the move-in money, then pay rent, ask for repairs and talk to your landlord in one place until you move out.

Guides, in the order you will need them

1. Find a home Search long-term rentals, read what each one costs and requires, and keep a shortlist.
2. Ask a question or book a tour Send the landlord an inquiry or request a time to see the home, and follow both on My activity.
3. Apply One application you fill in once and reuse - eight steps, the checks the landlord requires, a screening report you own, and following the decision.
4. Sign your lease When you are approved, the landlord sends the lease to sign online. Review it, sign it, and download the signed copy.
5. Move in Pay the move-in money, work through the move-in checklist, and ask the landlord for a moving window.
6. Pay rent and set up autopay Add a card or bank account, pay what is due, turn on autopay, and check your ledger and payment history.
7. Ask for repairs Report an issue, say how the repair person can get in, follow the request, and tell the landlord whether it was fixed.
8. Your home and lease Your home screen, lease details, notices from the landlord, household, documents and smart devices.
