Background Checks for Hiring PMs

Which background check sites are used for hiring employees rather than tenants? Ideally this would be a service that charges per individual background directly to the applicant before hiring.

As a side note, these are individuals who have already completed a video interview with me and consented to paying for a background check for the position and provided references. Since I am no longer in the area and do not have referrals for employees, this is my main driver for knowing more about the team I hire.

If you are using a payroll service for your employees there is likely a prefered vendor for background checks. I know our Paychex program has a background check company we use.

I guess you could run your prospective employess thru your property management software like a tenant...
