Once the simple authentication process is completed and questions are answered to verify their identity, landlords and real estate agents can immediately invite applicants to share their tenant background report all through ApplyConnect's secure portal.
"We listened to our clients' feedback to improve the identity verification and are excited that ApplyConnect and Experian worked together to implement the SSN as an optional field and improve the authentication process so more renters, landlords, and real estate agents successfully pass" stated CIC's President, Sabrina Bower.
ApplyConnect is available 24/7 to renters, landlords and real estate agents at their convenience. This one-of-a-kind system delivers the full Experian credit report, risk score, nationwide eviction, criminal and sex offender search within seconds of an applicant purchasing and sharing their report online.
ApplyConnect has no setup fees, contracts or onsite inspection requirement. With traditional tenant screening services, the time it takes for a credit reporting agency to establish an account can range from several days to a week.
With ApplyConnect, agents and landlords expand the selection of qualified applicants to those with minimal credit history. The VantageScore 3.0 allows for approximately 35 million more consumers to be scored, as compared to other scoring models.
Each tenant screening report also includes a nationwide criminal records search, sex offender registry, and a nationwide eviction history provided by the most comprehensive eviction records database in the U.S. with 36 plus million records, updated daily. ApplyConnect ensures that real estate agents have access to the same comprehensive tenant screening solutions as full scale property management companies.
ApplyConnect's advantages to the rental applicant are that there is zero impact on the applicant's credit score, and personal identifying information such as the SSN, DOB and account numbers are masked for added protection.
