What we checked on Tenant Background Search
Reports included

Price of a screening
All four packages carry a published one-time price per applicant, from $19.95 for Standard to $41.95 for Comprehensive + Assets, with no subscription or minimum order.

This process can take an indefinite amount of time to complete depending on the response time from the tenant/applicant.
Free to the landlord
