Background Checks for Every Adult?

Hello!

So a quick question for those of you who use any type of background/credit check/eviction/criminal history check for screening tenents.

Do you have each of your adults in the unit (maybe not necessarily the applicants) fill it out? It seems that it might become a little bit overwhelming monitarily for potential applicants if you have between 2-4 adults living in a unit and the process costs between $80-$160 (especially if they don't end up qualifying).

Do you do anything to offset those costs? Has this ever caused you a snag when renting to potential tenents?
