The Homeowner portal provides residents with convenient access to their account information, payment options, and community resources. You can log in using a one-time code or continue to use your username and password.
The one-time code login is the recommended method, especially if you have forgotten your password or don't want to have to remember login credentials. This feature eliminates the need to call your management company for password assistance, providing a self-service option that saves time for both residents and management staff.
Important: The one-time code method is prioritized in the login flow and is the easiest way to access your account securely.

Troubleshooting
Q: I'm not receiving my one-time code email.
A: If you are not receiving your one-time code email:
- Begin first by checking your spam/junk folder.
- Ensure that you entered your email address correctly and that it is the same email registered for the account.
- Contact your management company for assistance.
Q: My one-time code says it's invalid or expired.
A: One-time codes expire after a set period. Click Resend code to receive a new code. Make sure you're entering the most recent code you received.
Q: I can't remember my username.
A: Contact your management company or association to retrieve your username. They can verify your identity and provide your login information.
Q: The system is asking me to reset my password, but I just logged in.
A: Some login methods trigger a forced password reset for security purposes. Follow the on-screen prompts to create a new password, which you can use for future logins. See the After Login procedure of the Reset Your Password section.
Q: I'm getting an error message when trying to log in.
A: Clear your browser cache and cookies, then try again. If the issue persists, try using a different browser or contact technical support.
Note: If you continue to experience login issues, contact your management company's support team for assistance. They can help troubleshoot account-specific problems and verify your account status.
Q: The portal password reset message is redacted.
A: Password reset messages are now redacted to enhance security by removing one-time access codes from XN Notes and Activity Notes. Sensitive temporary authentication information is no longer visible in system tracking, while activity logging still captures all necessary details for administrative and homeowner account changes.
Q: The app is asking me for a Company ID upon login.
A: This is occurring because your homeowner is attempting to log into the Vantaca Manage app or onto Vantaca.net, both of which are designed solely for management company employees. Redirect your homeowner to instead download the Vantaca Home app or provide them with their portal URL to login as intended.
Q: Why is a homeowner receiving an "Invalid login details" error message, and why is the portal empty when I mimic their account?
A: This typically occurs when the association's Status is set to Onboarding or Not Managed instead of Live.
To resolve this issue:
- Navigate to Association > Association List
- Click Edit for the affected association
- Change the Status field to Live
- Click Update
Once the association status is set to Live, the homeowner will be able to log in successfully and their portal will display correctly when mimicked.
For additional information about association statuses, refer to our Association Status article.
Q: Is there a report that shows which owners have portal logins and their login activity?
A: Vantaca doesn't have a built-in report for this, but you can access this information through the Homeowner and Board Login Activity dashboard within the Business dashboard section in Vantaca IQ.
Use this tool to access comprehensive insights into homeowner and board member login activity. View unique logins and the frequency of homeowner logins, shown by association. Easily identify homeowners and properties without login information or email addresses and take action when needed.
For details on using this dashboard, see our Vantaca IQ - Business Dashboard article. If Vantaca IQ isn't enabled for your database, contact your Customer Success Manager to get started.
