Backgound check- In Canada and US

Tenant Screening, Landlord Screening, Online Tenant Screening, Tenant Screening Checks, and Tenant Screening Credit Checks

Information accessible to every landlord

This blog is the result of countless hours of research over the internet. We have tried to put together some of the services that you as a landlord would need.. Criminal and Credit check, free advertising of your property, Collection agency, Security cameras, legal forms, informational web site for each of the states in the US and in Canada to cover all the laws concerning Landlord and Tenants, etc. Each week I will try to add more and more useful information that applies to landlords. I have rental property in both the US and Canada. Read about my nightmare tenant and you'll see why it is important to follow all the steps. Taking the time now, will eliminate future financial headaches. I will post as many tips to help you out as I can. There is nothing like a nightmare tenant to motivate a landlord to put the case on the internet. After winning my case against this tenant I decided to make my case public. Although I won, I still cannot collect my overdue rent and legal fees in excess of $12,000,-- In addition I put the amounts owed through small claims court and only claimed $10,000. This amount will forever be in his file. The important issue, we were able to evict him. Nothing worse than a tenant who is not paying and you unable to evict him. Read my story and you'll see why.

LIght Humour- Tenant Excuses for not paying the rent


Tenant Excuses For Not Paying The Rent

"I can't pay my rent as my BMW is in the shop, 
and I cannot affordto pay for both."

"I can't pay my rent because the checks come
 out of Japan and theplane crashed."

"If I move, my friends won't know where to find
me."

"Well, you see, I cannot pay the rent
 because my daughter ate my husband's paycheck."

"I deposited my paycheck in the bank teller
machine and it got caught in the rollers. 
It took six days to tear apart the machine."

"I had my choice of paying the rent or buying 
a car.  I bought a car.  I knew you would understand."

"I am sure I paid you -- YOU must have lost it."

"You towed my car away that was illegally parked
 and I refuse to pay my rent until you get my car
 out of impound."

"It's your fault.  You deposited my check too late.  
My automatic withdrawals went through the bank before
the rent check."

"There is nowhere else to go.  The place I applied to
 will not take me because you are evicting me."

Finally, courtesy of Randy Chapman, office manager for
the Apartment Association of Seattle & King County, this
reason for not paying the rent: "The house is haunted."
