As renter household formation surpasses new owner occupied homes property managers, realtors and landlords see a rise in applications for their vacant units.

Tenant Screening Protects Privacy

January 26, 2011 By

Information Enterprises, Inc. forms partnership with TransUnion a world leader in the storage and retrievability of private and public information primarily peoples credit history.  The new agreement resulted in the creation of a new website TenantScreeningUSA.com and uses the cutting edge SmartMove® technology engineered by TransUnion’s Rental Screening division.  The new website allows landlords and small property management companies to perform their tenant screening via the Internet in minutes and provides an actual leasing recommendation as well as furnishing a credit report, criminal background report and other pertinent reports.

The best part about this new tenant screening site is that it protects the privacy of the renter.  The renter also logs into the site, pulls their own credit report and consents to allowing the landlord to view it along with other background checks like criminal history checks.  However it is the system’s ability to mask the renter’s private information that puts it ahead of other tenant screening solutions.  The landlord gets all the background checks, reports and information he or she needs to make an informed leasing decision without ever seeing the private information of the renter such as their social security number and account numbers.
