How Tenant Screening Works
It’s straightforward and fast to run a tenant credit, criminal, and eviction check, even if you’ve never done it before. If you haven’t had the tenant fill out a rental application already, we recommend starting there.
1. Enter Their Email: Yep. That’s it. You don’t need their SSN or sensitive personal information. Screen them by entering their email or phone number. We’ll take care of the rest.
2. TurboTenant Verifies Their Identity: We automatically reach out to the tenant on your behalf to have them answer a few questions to verify their identity.
3. You Receive the Report: As soon as the tenant verifies their identity, you’ll get a notification telling you the screening report is ready to review.
Easy to use. Streamlines the process. Provides insight on renter compatibility.

What’s on the Screening Report?
Even if you’re a good judge of character, you need a snapshot of a tenant’s financials, criminal record, and eviction history. Our screening report shows:
- Credit Score— see if they meet your criteria
- Lines of Credit—learn if they might be stretched too thin
- Credit Inquiries—gain insights into new loans
- Debt in Collections—view their debt payment history, including any late payments
- Criminal Record—rest assured knowing we check 300+ million records
- Past Evictions—sleep easy knowing we check 27+ million records covering all 50 states plus D.C.
Pricing
You can manage the entire rental process for free! The majority of landlords have the tenant pay the $45 fee to cover the screening report. But if you’ve already collected a fee or just want to pay it yourself, you have that option.
