Do I need to do a credit check on my tenant?

Search our FAQs

Yes, but it is recommended that you undertake a comprehensive tenant reference check with an established referencing provider such as Tenant Verify that would include a credit check. A full tenant reference check will usually include ‘right to rent’ verification checks, credit history, address and historical address verification, validation of identity and credit history.
