			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With the popularity of our EasyPay program where you can automatically deduct rent from a tenant&#8217;s (or owner&#8217;s in the case of associations) account we have extended the capabilities.  Based on popular request, we&#8217;ve added a second application available for download at <em>Settings</em>, <em>EasyPay Setup</em>.  The new application allows for the tenant to pay the transaction cost.</p>
<p>One application is the original where you, the landlord or property manager, pays the transaction cost.  The second application has the tenant agree to the cost, and simply adds it to their payment(s) at the time of processing.  The cost is the same either way, you just now have the option of who pays it.</p>
<p>If you are not already setup for EasyPay, it is simple to get setup.  Login to your Rentec Direct account and select <em>Settings</em>, <em>Setup EasyPay</em>.  The application to get started is available there.  We can simplify your rent collection process right away.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Rentec Direct is pleased to announce the renter portal.  Just like landlords and property managers can login to view account details, balances, etc; you can offer similar functionality to your tenants.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-184" title="tenant_summary" src="http://www.rentecdirect.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/tenant_summary.png" alt="tenant_summary" width="437" height="200" />Tenants can login using their own username and password and view limited details about their account.  This reduced screenshot shows the summary screen that a tenant who is Overdue would see.  A paid up account would see their next payment due date, and the amount due.</p>
<p>Additionally tenants can review their statement, and make minor setting changes, such as email address updates, and email receipt preferences.</p>
<p>To use this feature, login and edit the tenant you wish to have access and check &#8216;Enable&#8217; on Tenant Portal.  Be sure you have an email filled in for the tenant as this will be their username, and the password will be their password for accessing the portal.  If you leave the password blank, the system will automatically generate a random password for you.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-186" title="edit_tenant_portal" src="http://www.rentecdirect.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/edit_tenant_portal.png" alt="edit_tenant_portal" width="532" height="45" /></p>
<p>Tenants access the portal by visiting <a href="http://www.rentecdirect.com/">http://www.rentecdirect.com/</a> and clicking Login, or directly by going to <a href="http://www.rentecdirect.com/tenants/">http://www.rentecdirect.com/tenants/</a></p>
<p>In the future, for landlords who have merchant services or electronic draft enabled for their tenants, tenants will be able to make rent payments directly from this interface.</p>
