how to pull tenants' credit and background checks?

[Corey Demuth]

What services do you use to pull credit and background checks on applicants (potential tenants)? Can you use the same tools in multiple states, and are there any legal issues associated with pulling credit and/or background checks for potential tenants?

Thanks!

For everyone that lets tenants pull their own credit and send it to you, I must say I think that's a bad idea, sooner or later you're going to get a half-way computer literate tenant who will realize who simple it is to simply edit the pdf or other document and remove or change negative items...
