General Frequently Asked Questions
It depends on how much you are willing to pay. Most baseline background checks cover the basics such as criminal history, arrests, and traffic violations. A mid-tier background check would include watchlist screening, civil records (bankruptcies, liens), employment history, address history, and more. The most advanced checks will also include analyzing social media and general internet activities.
Most background checks take between 1 to 5 business days, depending on the depth of the check and the sources being contacted.
You can dispute the errors with us or the reporting agency (credit agency, etc) and provide proof to correct any inaccuracies.

Most landlords or property managers will conduct background checks to assess tenant suitability, but the requirements may vary.
Yes, but it depends on the severity, timing, and relevance of the conviction. Many states have laws limiting blanket denials based on criminal records.
Some landlords verify employment as part of the background check, particularly to confirm income and ability to pay rent.
Landlords can request credit reports, criminal records, rental history, and employment verification, but they must comply with Fair Housing and privacy laws.

Yes, landlords can charge an application or screening fee, but the amount is often regulated by state or local law.
