Good Tenant Screening Protects Landlord and Applicant

FCRA compliant tenant screening is good for both the landlord and rental applicant. Using a professional third party tenant screening company to vet potential renters is a wise decision for landlords and property managers. A third party background screening company offering professional tenant checks has to comply with Federal Law and other laws governing the background screening industry. A credit report is a private record that requires consent from the potential renter in order for the landlord to access this information. Although criminal records are public records they are still sensitive information that a landlord should get permission for before placing criminal checks. This is currently a required step for using criminal records in the employment screening process. The FCRA and Federal Trade Commission are looking out for the average American renter while the landlord is looking to rent to a low risk well qualified tenant. This balancing act helps both landlords and potential renters.
