Background and Credit Check

Charles E. Bruckman

Hello All,

I have recently purchased a 4 bedroom house and I am beginning my search for tenants. I am curious about running background and credit checks on potential renters. What is the best way to do this? Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance!

@Charles E. Bruckman Since you're looking for an option to screen your tenants, I suggest looking into free property management software. They usually include features that allow you to send out customized applications to your tenants and also take care of the tenant screening process at the same time. They also allow you to choose from several screening options, such as - credit, criminal and eviction; based on your preferences.
