Is an address needed to receive TransUnion® reports?

No! An address is unnecessary for a renter to order, receive, and share reports with their inviting agent.
This can be done at any time. No strings attached! With our “Inviting Agent Share” feature, any agent who sends an invitation link to their client is able to receive shared copies of their reports and rental applications. This feature lets renter information be shared only between the agent and the client. It is not shared with anyone else.

So… if the end goal is to share reports with others, listing agents, property managers, and landlords, then an address must be selected.
When using SoftScreen® to apply for rent, the address of a rental property is needed. That’s because applying for rent requires a rental property! It also needs at least one Listing Agent, Property Manager, or Landlord. Someone responsible for receiving the applicant's information for a decision on their potential tenancy.

Every address in our secure system has a listing agent, property manager, and/or landlord associated with it. By selecting the address, the applicant’s information is securely shared with the correct individuals for that property. This protects the Tenant's privacy, allowing reports to go safely, directly, and only to those who need them. Tenants are empowered to control and limit the distribution of their own information.

Un-Share. Privacy by design

Once an address is selected and information is shared, should the information no longer be needed, potential tenants can choose to “un-share” their information after the fact. The applicant can revoke access to their personal information by simply clicking a button.
