Overview
One of the things you likely want to track for your tenants is the status of their renters insurance.
First, you need to configure your tenant portal settings to allow tenants to submit proof of their renters insurance online.
When creating a new lease, you can also turn on a setting to display a message in the tenant portal reminding your new tenants that insurance is required.
What if you forgot to turn on the "insurance required" tenant portal message when you created the lease? Or what if you turned it on by accident and insurance isn't actually required? No problem, you can turn this message on or off after the fact.
The Steps
From the main menu, click Leasing and then click Active Leases.
Find the lease you want to require renters insurance for, and click on it. You can either sort the list by the various columns and filters or use the Search leases search bar.
From the available tabs, click on Settings and then the Renters Insurance button.
From the Lease Renters Insurance window, select the option to Specify renters insurance options for this lease.
Toggle on the option to Require Renters Insurance and click Save.
If you are meaning to turn off the message stating insurance is required, toggle the option off instead.
This will now be reflected on the Tenant Portal for whether or not they require renters insurance.
Next Steps
Review what the tenant portal looks like so you can review what the "insurance is required" message looks like for your tenants.
