Recommended Posts

You can get a credit check and eviction history from Mr. Landlord. It's $9.95 for a credit check & $14.95 for credit plus eviction history. Results are instant.

 

If you want a criminal history you can get either statewide or nationwide from Integra Scan. It's $12.95 for state & $18.95 for national. Results are instant.

I am currently searching for a good tenant screening service. Any ideas or recomendations?

In the US, there is such a thing as the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FRCA), which is responsible for regulating background checks, including tenant background checks. This is in recognition of the fact that the information obtained from the tenant background check performed by a third party, such as a company that specializes in background checks, tends to be of a sensitive nature. The FRCA is the most notable among the laws that control the spread and lawful utilization of such information. Also, the FRCA puts constraints on tenant background check and mitigates the affects unfavorable assessments, providing notice to the consumer or the person who underwent the tenant background check, and controls the dissemination of such information. Furthermore, should the tenant background check be used as a major reason behind an unfavorable hiring result, the consumer should be furnished with a document disclosing adverse action before it is to be taken into effect, a letter notifying him of the adverse action, as well as a copy of his rights as summarized by the FRCA. Even if you search 11 billion public records , tenants are given the right to know the source of the negative information and what the information revealed about the tenant .

 

Typically, Tenant Screening Background Checks include Verification of identity, SSN, employment, and address history. Checks State and county criminal records, sexual offender, terrorist watch, credit check, bankruptcy. Federal criminal records available. Matched by name & birthday.
