stevetodd Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 In the past I have not carried out a credit check on tenants, but now realise that I should be doing this. Does anyone know where I can get this done and how much it costs, is it fair to charge the tenants for this (I would have thought so but I will follow standard practice to enusre that I am fair). I have found this site that charges £24 per tenant: http://www.tenantref.co.uk/ They do offer a £6 service but only includes bankcruptcy, CCJ and tenant default search and does not include for 'exiisting credit data analysed' which I would have thought is quite important. The £24 service also verifies their employment, current landlord and ID. Edit: Just found this site: http://www.rentchecks.com/index.asp Which offers this check for £18.74 (if 5 or more checks purchased): Full referencing Report for agents & private landlords 6 year credit history search. CCJs & bankruptcy. Defaults, arrears & repossessions. Linked address search Validation of 3 references Guarantor suitability check Salary/income verification Acceptability Score Identification validation Post analysis recommendation Bank account validation Affordability analysis Delinquent tenant database search Rent Guarantee decision CIFAS fraud avoidance data Report within 2 business days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
