The Screening Flow: Link → OTP → Form → Review

The tenant screening process in Landager follows a secure, four-step flow designed to verify identity and collect comprehensive information.

Step 1: Create an Application Link

To start the process, you create an application link from the Screening tab on the Tenants page. You then share this secure, single-use link (which expires after 7 days) with the applicant.

Step 2: Email Verification (OTP)

When the applicant clicks the link, they first need to verify their email:

1. The applicant enters their email address
2. Landager sends a 6-digit OTP code (valid for 10 minutes) to that email
3. The applicant enters the code to confirm their identity
4. If the code is correct, the screening form becomes accessible

This step ensures that only the intended recipient can access and submit the form.

Step 3: Screening Form Submission

After verification, the applicant sees a comprehensive, mobile-friendly form organized into sections:

Personal Information

• Full name, date of birth, nationality
• Phone number, current address

Identity Document

• Document type (passport, national ID, residence permit, driver's license)
• Document number
• Upload of document scan or photo

Employment & Income

• Employment status
• Employer name (if applicable)
• Monthly net income
• Upload of proof of income (payslips, contracts, bank statements)

Rental History

• Previous landlord name and contact information

Additional Details

• Desired move-in date
• Number of occupants
• Pet information
• Additional documents and notes

The form supports file uploads for the required ID and income documents.

Step 4: Landlord Review

Once submitted, the application appears in the Screening tab on the Tenants page:

• The applicant's status changes to "Submitted"
• You click "View" to open a detailed review page at /dashboard/screenings/[id]
• You can navigate through their Personal Info, Employment, Rental History, and view all uploaded documents.

Step 5: Decision

On the review page, you have two primary actions:

• Approve: Automatically creates a formal Tenant profile (with a "Pending" status) using the verified data.
• Reject: Marks the application as rejected.
