Best tenant credit/background checks for free?
What is the best way for a new landlord to screen a tenant's credit, financials, and background for free?
We are new landlords searching for a first tenants and want to start off right.

Looking for free stuff doesn't sound like starting off right, since most free stuff is either incomplete or of dubious value - why would someone compile that kind of information and then give it away for nothing?
I use TransUnion's MySmartmove. It's not free - the tenant pays about $30 or so for the service - but it is pretty good and lets you see the actual credit report rather than just giving you a score.
