Rental research services Verifications

There are instances when further verification of information is required.  As a follow-up to the Instant Inquiry, Rental Research offers an optional resident screening tool called the Verified Report.  This report includes thorough and complete verifications of:

 
  • Rental References
  • Employment Verifications
  • Eviction Records
Rental References  
When Rental Research obtains a rental reference, we don't simply pick up the application and dial the proposed landlord's phone number.  We start by verifying critical information first - actual ownership of the property, which sometimes may or may not be the person or organization listed on the application.  We then verify the phone number that's listed on the application.  If the number listed is for an apartment complex, we make certain that the number is definitely associated with the complex before calling.  The thoroughness of our rental reference verifcations ensures that the information you receive is the most accurate it can be.  
 
Employment Verifications and Financial References   Employment Verifications
This same level of thoroughness also holds true for employment verifications.  Whether it is a current or previous employment verification, Rental Research makes every effort to ensure that the company the applicant lists is a legitimate business before making any contact phone calls or faxes.
 
Eviction Records

If evictions records are listed as "possible" on a person's Instant Inquiry, then Rental Research will investigate those possible records to determine whether they are or are not verified to the applicant you are currently screening.

Rental research services Residential Occupancy Performance Report (ROPR)   Residential Occupancy Performance Report
The Residential Occupancy Performance Report (ROPR) contains over 35 years worth of renter peformance reports from Rental Research.  These reports come directly from property managers, so the information obtained is directly from the primary source.

The ROPR is an essential tool to help identify any individuals who have been problems renters for another property manager, especially when there is no guarantee that a problem renter actually made it to the eviction action stage.  The ROPR provides identity verification, including date-of-birth and/or social security number, along with a detailed description of what action or incidence occurred to deem an individual as being a problem renter.

The ROPR database also contains information on individuals with a positive rental history.  This helps eliminate the burden of having to make individual reference calls, since your reference may already be provided!

The ROPR service is provided absolutely free to all Rental Research clients.  Help other property managers by providing invaluable renter information, whether it's regarding your best residents or your worst!
