Trouble Accessing Portal
When transitioning to Rentvine, tenants, residents, and owners may encounter challenges accessing their portals. This guide provides solutions to common issues and troubleshooting steps to ensure smooth access.
Are you receiving an error when trying to access your portal? such as "This site can't be reached"
The following section addresses network and firewall-related issues that may prevent access to the portal.
If you are experiencing difficulty accessing your portal and are receiving a message like the one below:
A possible reason is that the WIFI network that you are using may have a firewall/router/advanced security system that could be blocking access to the URL account.rentvine.com
You can verify this by disconnecting from the WIFI network and use a different internet connection, such as your mobile phone's (LTE or 5G)
Contact your ISP (Internet Service Provider) and let them know that you can't access the URL account.rentvine.com
For example, if you are using using xFinity or comcast as your internet service provider a possible issue could be that you have "Xfi Advanced Security" turned on. You may need to turn it off or contact Xfinity to troubleshoot further. Below is a link to a help article from Xfinity https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/using-xfinity-xfi-advanced-security

Updating Email Addresses: Void the current portal access tied to the old email and send a new invitation to the updated email address.
Resolving Migration-Specific Errors

Work Order Links Redirecting to Login: This happens when portal access isn’t linked to the relevant property/account. Accept a new portal invitation to resolve this.
Viewing the Correct Lease: If a previous lease is displayed, use the "Switch leases" option in the portal to access the current lease.
