A TransUnion SmartMove report provides valuable insights into a prospective tenant’s background, helping landlords and property managers make informed decisions about potential renters. Here’s a breakdown of what a TransUnion SmartMove report typically includes:
- Credit Report and Score: The report provides a detailed overview of the applicant’s credit history, including their credit score and factors that influence it. This helps you gauge the tenant’s financial responsibility and ability to meet rent obligations.
- Criminal Background Check: The report includes information about the tenant’s criminal history, including records from the National Criminal Database and sex offender registries. This helps ensure the safety and security of your property and other tenants.
- Eviction History: The report reveals any past eviction-related proceedings or filings. This information gives you insights into the applicant’s rental history and whether they have a history of non-payment or lease violations.
- Income Insights: Some TransUnion SmartMove reports may include income insights, providing an estimate of the applicant’s income based on available data. This can help you assess their financial stability and ability to afford the rent.
- Rental History: The report may provide details about the applicant’s previous rental history, including past addresses and landlords. This information gives you an understanding of their rental track record.
- Address History: The report lists the addresses associated with the applicant, helping you verify their identity and ensuring accurate background checks.
- Personal Information: The report includes the applicant’s personal information, such as name, date of birth, and Social Security number, which is used for identity verification and accurate reporting.
It’s important to note that the specific information included in a TransUnion SmartMove report may vary based on the package selected by the landlord or property manager. These comprehensive reports empower you to make well-informed decisions when selecting tenants, promoting a secure and successful rental experience.
