Hello Robert,
Thank you for contacting NoPayTenants.com and we would like to share your Question and our Answer with the entire website community:
Q: My question is how do tenants that have been added by landlords respond without being members of this site? The tenants I have added are not showing up in any search engines. Even if they did, I don't understand how a tenant can FLAG a record without being a member.
A: Database searches and flagging for tenants require a paid membership. Of course, rental property owners may post and maintain tenant records free of charge.
If your tenants desire to initiate the record removal process through our website, they will need to purchase a membership to enable flagging. If your tenants do not desire to initiate the record removal process via the Internet, they may contact you directly to make arrangements to remove their rental history from being displayed on the NoPayTenants.com website.
NoPayTenants.com is a national centralized database for rental property owners, which provides Internet access to your tenant records. You may choose to notify your tenants (in writing or otherwise) that their rental history has been posted to NoPayTenants.com and it will remain on display for other rental property owners to see until satisfactory arrangements have been made with you to remove it.
Display of tenant records with the search engine websites (Google, Yahoo, etc) cannot be guaranteed. NoPayTenants.com makes it easy for those search engines to have access to your tenant records in our database; however, it's impossible to say when or where your tenant records will appear on those website pages.
Every day, more and more tenant records are added and updated to the website, making NoPayTenants.com the largest Internet database in the United States maintained exclusively by rental property owners. When screening for new tenants, inform your applicants that your background check will include a search of NoPayTenants.com for their rental history.
Best wishes and thank you for using NoPayTenants.com!
