3. TENANT-FRIENDLY CREDIT CHECKS (Includes TransUnion Risk Score)

Many Tenant Applicants Don’t Want To Provide Information To A Landlord They Don’t Know. 

Now You Can Now Run Credit Checks & Only Need Your Tenant Applicants Name & Email Address! This Means Applicants Don’t Have To Worry…And You Get the Results!

Experienced and successful landlords know that nowadays tenant applicants take the security of their private information extremely seriously.  And they should!  Tenant applicants don’t want to give out their SIN and don’t want to give a landlord they barely know their written consent to their private financial information.

EXPERT members can now run TransUnion credit checks that provide a new level of confidence and trust from potential applicants. Tenants don’t have to provide all their information to the landlord, so they feel more protected.  And you the landlord will still get a highly detailed credit check.

This is How It Works:

-The Landlord will send a email request for a credit check to the applicant by typing in their name and email address.

-The applicants gets an email with a link where they go online and fill out the rest of the information needed.

-During this process they also sign for consent and go through Electronic Identification Verification (E-IV). This replaces the need for ID’s and verifier signatures.

-Once the applicants have filled out the application, the landlord will get an email with the results.

It’s a very convenient and simple system that protects tenant applicants and also provides the credit check information (including score) to the landlord.

It’s Easy And Convenient For Tenant Applicants To Even Pay For the Check If They Agree

The Landlord can make the payment responsibility on either side, whatever the Landlord prefers The Landlord can pay for the credit check or the Tenant Applicant can agree to pay by credit card after they fill out the application!

It’s an easy and convenient way for budget conscious landlords to get tenant applicants to pay for credit checks!
