To order a tenant report, follow these steps:

Visit singlekey.com (Canada) or singlekey.com (U.S.) and complete your account setup.
-
Once your account is set up, go to the “Tenant Reports” section.
-
Click “Order New Report” in the top right corner of the screen.
-
On the next page, choose between:
-
Invite Tenant
-
Enter Tenant Information
-
Select the option that best fits your needs and follow the instructions below.
Option 1: Invite Tenant
This is the recommended method for a faster and more seamless experience. When you select Invite Tenant, an email with a rental application form will be sent to the tenant. They will fill out their information and provide consent to run a credit check and a public records scan.
Benefits of this option:
-
Streamlines the process
-
Tenant provides consent directly
-
No need for manual data entry
Once the tenant submits the form, you’ll receive a confirmation email. You can also log into your account at any time to view completed reports.
Option 2: Enter Tenant Information
If you prefer to enter the tenant’s details manually, ensure you obtain written consent (usually through a rental application form) to run a credit check and public records search.
After consent is received:
-
Input the tenant’s details
-
Receive the report in about 5 minutes
