Tenant screening

Know who you are signing into your property.

Tenant screening for landlords and agents. CheckIn confirms a prospective tenant is a real, government-verified person, in under a minute.

Three things a viewing never tells you.

When someone applies to rent, all you have is a name and the details they give you. Both are easy to invent. Three things slip straight past a viewing:

Invented
A name that does not match the person.

Nothing at a viewing confirms the applicant is who the paperwork says they are.

Borrowed
An ID that belongs to someone else.

A document photo proves the card exists, not that it is theirs.

Flagged
A name that is already on a watchlist.

A handshake and a deposit never check whether the person has been flagged elsewhere.

Tenant screening closes all three. Instead of trusting the paperwork, CheckIn confirms the person, matching a live selfie against a government-issued ID, so the tenant you sign is the person you met.

FAQs

How do I screen a tenant before signing?

Send the applicant a secure verification link. They complete it by taking a quick selfie and confirming a government ID, and you see the result before anyone signs a tenancy.

Can I screen a tenant remotely?

Yes. CheckIn runs entirely online, so an applicant can be verified wherever they are, before a viewing or a deposit.

What stops an applicant using someone else's ID?

The liveness check and selfie match confirm the applicant is a real, present person whose face matches the government ID. A borrowed or screenshotted ID does not pass.

Do tenants need to download an app to verify?

No. Verification runs online from the link you send. There is nothing to install for you or your applicant.

Is it legal to screen tenants?

Yes. Every check is run with the applicant's consent and their data is stored securely. Their information is never shared with third parties.
