Frequently Asked Questions

What's included in a tenant background check?

Our standard screening includes criminal records, eviction history, employment verification, and previous landlord references. Credit reports available with proper authorization.

How do I get tenant authorization?

We provide a compliant authorization form for tenants to sign as part of their application. This is required by law before screening.

Can I reject a tenant based on criminal history?

Michigan law allows consideration of criminal history, but HUD guidance requires individualized assessment. We provide the information; you should consult legal counsel on rejection criteria.

How far back do eviction records go?

Michigan eviction records are available for 7+ years. We search all available records in our databases.

Do you verify income claims?

Yes. We contact employers to verify employment status and can confirm income ranges. This is crucial since income fabrication is common among problematic applicants.
