Real EstateClient Screening3MediumOwner$ implied

A small landlord lacks a reliable, comprehensive, and affordable way to screen potential tenants, especially verifying identities for common names and authenticating landlord references.

Existing tenant screening services may not adequately handle common name false positives, provide robust reference verification, or offer nationwide court record searches at a cost and simplicity suitable for a landlord with only a couple of units.
