Request a credit check for the applicant to gather relevant credit information. Ensure that the provided credit check is accurate, up-to-date, and comprehensive.
Review credit check results
Once the credit check results are received, review them thoroughly to assess the applicant's creditworthiness. Analyze their credit score, outstanding debts, payment history, and any negative credit events. Determine if their credit report meets the desired criteria for tenancy. If the credit check reveals any concerning information, consider requesting additional documentation or seeking clarification from the applicant.
