Can I still request a screening if a tenant does not apply online?

Help Center For Landlord Operations with Tenant Tenant Screenings

Yes, you can still request a screening if a tenant does not apply online.

It is mandatory to have a rental application for an applicant in order to be able to order a screening report. If the applicant is not able to apply online, you can add the rental application manually and then, request a screening report after the application has been created. 

Please note! It is possible to screen US residents only.

The first step is to add the rental application for the required applicant manually.

Then please click View Application and press the 'Request a screening report' button in the Tenant Screening section. 

You are welcome to select one of the following screening reports:
