Leave a reply

A national background check is simply the combination of 46 separate statewide criminal background checks.  As such, the national background check can retrieve criminal records from a long time back, sometimes decades old if one of the states it includes in its search has criminal history records that are stored from that far back and are available for instant online gateway retrieval.

The Federal Search only goes back 7 years except for a few Federal Courts that don’t even go back that far, however there are well over 300 Federal Courts so only 1% of them do not allow CriminalBackgroundRecords.com  to go back 7+ years.  Even though the Federal search is not instant, most Federal search requests take less than 1 business day to complete.

Landlords and Renters Agree!

Leave a reply

In January 2011 Information Enterprises launched TenantScreeningUSA.com a co-branded tenant screening web site that caters to landlords, small property management companies and renters.

The new site offers a tenant screening solution that satisfies the demands of a landlord while protecting the personally identifiable information of the renter.  It accomplishes this feat by having the renter login to the site upon the landlords request and then initiates the retrieval of their own credit report by properly answering some verification questions proving they are who they are and then the renter consents to having their background reports sent to their new potential landlord.  The beauty of the system is that once the landlord gets the renters background information sent to his computer via the Internet, the reports purposely omit the personally identifiable information of the renter so everybody wins.
