TENANT REPORT FEATURES
Everything you need to make informed rental decisions
A complete picture of your tenant
Choose between a full credit check from Equifax®, TransUnion®, or both credit bureaus. You'll get access to key credit, employment, and rental history to evaluate your rental applicant’s financial status and reliability as a renter.
Easy online rental application
Invite your tenant to complete an online rental application and quickly collect their personal details, employment info, proof of income documents, references, and credit check consent.
Eviction history and public record scan
Protect yourself from a lengthy eviction by getting your applicant’s eviction records sourced from Openroom, SOQUIJ, and CanLII. Plus, find out if they have an existing fraud or criminal history.
Social media insights
Each Tenant Report includes a scan of publicly available social media profiles, allowing you to compare results with tenant-provided details and verify important aspects like employment history from LinkedIn.
Income document analysis
PDF files provided on the rental application are scanned for signs of tampering. Key details are extracted and automatically checked against the information provided on the rental application.
Smart identity verification
Make sure the credit check is being run for the right person. Our AI-enabled tool confirms an applicant’s identify by cross-referencing a liveness check (selfie) and their uploaded ID.

Option 1: INVITE TENANT
Email a tenant the application form to collect their information. The tenant then fills out their information and gives consent to run the credit report. We then run the report and notify you when it’s ready.
Option 2: ENTER TENANT INFORMATION
If you have the tenant’s information and their consent, you can enter the tenant’s information and get the results back within 5 minutes. To run the report, you will need the tenant’s legal name, address, and date of birth.
As of November 2024, both credit bureaus, TransUnion and Equifax, have classified rental credit checks as soft checks. This means our Tenant Screening Report will not appear as an inquiry on a tenant’s credit file. It will also not affect a tenant’s credit score, even if they are screened multiple times in a short time period. This will apply retroactively to any rental check that was done in the past two years. As a soft check, the credit inquiry will no longer show up for lenders on the credit report. However, a rental applicant will see the inquiry on their MyEquifax portal.
The public documents scan is a real-time public document search of over 200,000 databases looking for criminal records, court decisions, past evictions, negative press, social media profiles, public biographies, past employment and more.
