Some have gone as far as to pay (through Zillow) for an application which includes a background check. 

I am a CM in O&G construction but little to no finance background.  

They have all of their background and credit reports done and they can use them on multiple applications.

A young engaged couple applied and completed credit and background check on my cozy listing, but only her information was there because he does not have a SSN.

Beautiful home.

We do tours every month and will gladly show you around and get you up close and personal with the beautiful ginger bread brick properties and lovely frame houses that are offering solid cash flowing returns as well has help familiarize you with Detroit and its robust rental market.

When I was starting out, I did background checks, but didn't pull credit, assuming most people in the Class C markets likely had no or bad credit. 

My leasing agent ran the tenant search on the tenant and I read over the background report he sent me, and did not mention the drug trafficking history that this has turned into.

Additional background: I just refinanced my property with a new loan of $411k and the approximate value is $500k.Thanks in advance
