RentScreener is unable to disclose any information from the Credit Report (ie: Credit Scores, but we will give you a 49 point range 700-749). A RentReport contains RentGrade (Financial Risk Factor), Income to Rent Ratio, National Eviction Report, and National Criminal Report from TransUnion. -

The cost of the RentReport is $30.00 for each applicant screened plus the $5.00 Convenience Fee for each applicant. The Convenience Fee cannot be passed on to the Applicant with this Pro Account. If you choose to add TransUnion screening to your package, the convenience fee can be passed to the Applicant, or you can choose to pay it.

Payment Processing
With built in payment processing there is no need for a merchant account, payment gateway, high monthly fees, transaction fees, lengthy qualification process, chargebacks, refunds or other hassles. All of these services are included in our $5 processing fee charged to the applicant.
Communication Made Easy

How It Works
- Create an account
- Invite an applicant to apply online
- Your Applicant fills out the online application and pays your customized application fee per applicant.
- A RentScreener agent will screen the applicant and create a RentReport *
- You will receive the RentReport which will contain all of the information you need to determine if you should place the applicant in your property
*RentScreener does not make any decisions (acceptance, denial, contingent, etc.) on behalf of the property management company or landlords that use our service. All final decisions for acceptance or denial of an applicant(s) will come directly from the property management company or landlord the applicant has applied with.
