If the credit screening costs $25, then you earn nothing.I believe there are exceptions for a higher fee, but you have to stick to the actual cost of the screening.I would talk to an attorney before charging more than $25 per applicant.

Credit is also going to hinder your ability to get a heloc, and lack of income for now. 

For us STR hosts, I know we are very conscientious about guest experience and I want to be proactive about doing things to ensure my business operates successfully.Thanks!
