Order Now >

 

The American Apartment Owners Association is proud to offer national and repository tenant background checks.

National criminal history reports are returned immediately. Simply request the report, check out, and instantaneously see the results 24/7. These instant criminal history reports are the most popular criminal background checks ordered on AAOA due to their ease of access. Other reports immediately returned include our tenant screening credit report, eviction history report, sex offender, terrorist, and most wanted searches too.

All courts provide different means of access to their criminal history data. Some allow direct access where criminal records can be retrieved in real time or the data has been collected in mass and is regularly updated by our 3rd party provider. Other courts require the criminal history record to be purchased a la carte by contacting the court directly, these courts would not be part of a national search and are referred to as a repository search. County repository searches vary in turn around time and can take anywhere from a couple minutes to weeks to obtain depending if the court has electronic access or requires a person to manually pull and review records.

The FCRA, as well as many states, have varying requirements as to the age of criminal records that can be utilized to evaluate a tenant. AAOA’s background screening vendors only provide records within the last 7 years. 

There are no necessary landlord forms required to obtain a tenant’s criminal background history.

Many of our tenant screening packages include a statewide or nationwide criminal history report. Order one today and protect your real estate investment.
