Who do you use to run your Credit/Criminal Background Checks

Place I wanted to use is $38 a piece. If I wanted to do a credit/criminal/eviction check that is $114. That seems pretty high to me. Am I wrong? Also what type of checks do you run? I think that the eviction check is the least important of the three since a credit check would reflect an eviction if it was a recent one.

    I think you need to find another company. We have been using a company called ACUTRAQ for several years with great results.

    They perform credit, national criminal search, eviction search, they they even call the landlords for verification of rental history and employers for verification of income.  ACUTRAQ fee per application is $30.  www. acutraq.com . They also have an online application where tenants can apply online, making it very convenient and user-friendly.
