Let Tenantify Do the Verifying: Always Free for the Landlord!

Disclosure: This is a sponsored post.
If you are a property owner who rents, one thing you know for sure is that getting and verifying quality references from your tenants is touch-and-go. No two forms for identifying work or income are the same, and they can be ambiguous, or even downright confusing. Helping relieve you of the research headaches, or even more importantly, the authenticity of such documents, Tenantify will do the work for you. The best part, if you're the landlord, they do it for free. Tenants are charged after the reports are returned.

The cost is $10 for Employment Verification, $10 for Income Verification, or $15 for the two. Reports have a one-business-day turnaround time.

Tenantify is meant to empower the landlord and help build trust between him/her and the renter. Though a credit check is common when it comes to renting, those provided by the larger credit bureaus (most commonly used) do not offer current information. With Tenantify, a landlord will know if a person trying to rent is currently employed, of if they  have a steady stream of income coming in.

Extreme care is taken to protect all personal information obtained. 

Tenantify: One day turnaround time. Always free for the landlord!

If you are a landlord, or know someone who is, this is news you're going to want to know and share. The peace of mind from such a service, for a property owner, can be immeasurable. 


You can learn more about  Tenantify by visiting their website. You can also follow them on Facebook and/or Twitter.

    My husband and his brother own several rental properties, so I will make sure he knows about this!

    Wow this is neat! We rent but I hope to in the future own and possibly have a rental property or two! This would be wonderful!

    Excellent idea. You hear so many war stories about people who rent. It's essential to get a good renter.

    Have a fabulous day. ☺

    I don't rent out any properties so this would not help me at all. Personally I am not sure if I would be willing to pay a landlord money to do a check on me--with a co-op which I am in the bank does it. How would I know if I could trust the owner? That he/she would not use sensitive information for nefarious purposes?

    Wow this is big.. I did not know about this and will most likely use for the future. Hopefully no time soon .. saying our tenant is satisfied and wants to stay.

    I think this is a great service I live in a two bedroom apartment and before the new owners took over they just let anyone move in. It would give comfort knowing everyone passed a background check.

    I like the idea because it is inexpensive and it gives a day of waiting to think over the tenants while waiting for the reply. Tenantify would have kept me from making a big rental mistake once or twice.

    I watch a lot of HGTV so I'm pretty much a real estate expert (you can tell I'm kidding, right?). I would love an income property to offset the mortgage. It's a long-term goal, but I need to keep this service in mind for when we get there.

    We were scammed before trying to rent a place. Now, we are really gun shy. But I bet it is just as scary for those trying to rent to someone.

  53. Christy GarrettApril 1, 2015 at 10:26 AM

    This is a great idea. I'll have to remember this site if I ever decide to rent out our house. An income property would be a great asset to have one of these days. I'm like Crystal, I love HGTV and have dreamed of flipping a house. Except, with my back and Fibromyalgia that dream is on permanent hold unless I have money flowing out my ears and can hire the right contractors to do the entire thing whole I supervise.

    A very good idea! My mom rents out a room, and I know it's important for her to do background checks, but she is somewhat lax with that. Now I can do it for her!
