Renter background check

Yan Sully
Posted

Good morning BP investors,

How do you do background check and credit check for the renter? My renter mentioned to me that he might want to move out in the next few month if this going well between him and his gf. I thought I should learn how to screen renters since we are manage the property ourselves. We just bought two one-bedroom condo this year, so everything is new for me. I just want to do my homework in advance and be prepared.

 I have come across this website, but I don’t know if it is legitimate: https://www.singlekey.com/cred...

It cost $25 plus tax to do so, I think it is reasonable to avoid the headaches in the future if the site is legitimate and actually provide useful information.

We are in Gatineau, Quebec. It is not overly friendly to landlord here, but I couldn’t afford anything cross the river. 

Many thanks in advance!
