What’s Included in AAOA Nevada Tenant Screening

All Nevada tenant screening packages include multiple report options designed to help landlords verify applicant information and reduce rental risk. You can also run a tenant screening in Nevada online through AAOA.

Credit Report & Credit Score

Receive a credit report and credit score with every Nevada screening package. Credit history helps you evaluate payment patterns, identify collections or charge-offs, and compare applicant information against the rental application. To learn more about this report category, visit our tenant credit check page.

FCRA Compliance: All screening reports are processed in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). Proper applicant authorization is required before obtaining consumer reports.

Previous Address Tenant History (PATH Report)

The Previous Address Tenant History (PATH report) helps reveal addresses associated with an applicant’s Social Security number. This can help identify omitted addresses and support a more complete rental history review.

SSN Fraud Report

If there is limited history returned on the PATH report, the SSN fraud report can help identify potentially fraudulent Social Security numbers. Identity verification is an important part of screening Nevada rental applicants and can help reduce application misrepresentation.

Eviction History (Nationwide)

AAOA Nevada tenant screening packages include nationwide eviction history reports that help landlords identify prior filings and rental-related court records as part of the screening process.

Telecheck Verification

Telecheck verification helps identify whether an applicant has tendered bad checks or has outstanding bad checks.

Criminal Records History (Nationwide & County Criminal/Civil Repositories)

Search criminal records history with comprehensive screening solutions that include nationwide and county-level criminal searches, county civil litigation searches, and direct access to court repositories for real-time verification. These reports provide landlords with detailed, up-to-date information to support informed rental decisions as part of Nevada tenant screening background checks.

Sex Offender & Terrorism Searches (Package Option)

Some Nevada tenant screening background check packages include sex offender and terrorism database searches. These additional searches can help landlords evaluate applicant risk factors during the screening process.

Fast, Automated Reports

The automated reports provided with Nevada tenant screening packages help you review up-to-date applicant information efficiently, including rental history indicators, criminal records history where available, and identity verification signals.

Nevada Tenant Screening Laws & Application Fee Guidelines

Nevada landlords may use credit reports and tenant screening reports when evaluating applicants, provided they follow federal and state law. Screening criteria should be applied consistently and in compliance with Fair Housing and FCRA requirements.

Application Fees: Nevada Chapter 118A does not set a detailed statewide cap on rental application or screening fees. Landlords should disclose fees upfront and keep charges tied to actual screening and administrative costs.

Authorization: Landlords must obtain applicant authorization before obtaining consumer reports, including credit and background checks.

Adverse Action Requirements: If an applicant is denied based on a consumer report, landlords must comply with FCRA adverse action notice requirements, including identifying the reporting agency and informing the applicant of dispute rights.

State Framework: Nevada residential rentals are governed by Chapter 118A, and landlords should review current Nevada statutes and any local rules before adopting screening criteria or collecting fees.
