Tenant screening

Screen tenants with confidence

Checkr helps property managers and tenant screening services make fast, informed rental decisions—so you can protect your properties without slowing down leasing.

Traditional screening forces you to choose between speed and safety

Most property managers settle for basic checks because in-depth screening takes too long. But rushed decisions get expensive, from property damage to drawn-out evictions. Checkr removes the trade-off with fast, comprehensive criminal, eviction, public record, and fraud insights. Lease faster without sacrificing safety.

Why leading property managers and screening companies choose Checkr

Checkr powers millions of verifications every month, combining criminal, eviction, income, and public record data with proprietary fraud signals. Assess tenant risk accurately and move qualified applicants to lease faster.
