Checkr Tenant review
A pay-per-screening service for landlords who want broad applicant checks.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Checkr Tenant is a web-based tenant-screening service for landlords and property managers. Its screening packages bring together criminal-history searches, sex offender registry checks, global watchlist searches, credit reports, eviction histories, income verification, asset reports, and identity verification. Applicants complete consent and verification steps on their devices, while landlords review results through a dashboard. The service is designed for one-time screening rather than ongoing property-management workflows, and applicants or landlords can pay for a screening.
Pricing is organized into three one-time, per-screening plans. Starter costs $24.99 and includes criminal-history searches, sex offender registry checks, and global watchlist searches. Essential costs $34.99 and adds eviction-history searches plus a credit score and credit report. Complete costs $44.99 and adds bank-verified income verification, assets, and a bank report. The tier structure suits landlords who want to choose the depth of each report, but the per-screening model may be less suitable for teams seeking a monthly or annual subscription. The published features also include government-ID and selfie identity verification, applicant consent, mobile screening, and adverse-action letter generation.
Checkr Tenant’s main strength is breadth within a single screening service. It covers financial, court, identity, and watchlist checks, with credit data stated as coming directly from credit bureaus. The service states that its screening process is FCRA compliant and includes support for adverse-action letters when an application is declined. It is a strong fit for landlords and property managers who want a broad, standalone report without committing to recurring billing. Those seeking a wider property-management ecosystem or platform integrations should consider whether a web-only service fits their workflow.
