He was recently released from prison in Mansfield, Ohio, after serving time for forgery and theft. On his way to Kansas, he was arrested for an open-container violation in Indiana. January 29th last year he was arrested in Lawrence Kansas after he allegedly snatched a purse, and is now out on bond. His girlfriend has a previous arrest for the manufacture of methamphetamines. Right now they are looking for an apartment!
Ray Higdon posted a great AR blog a while back on sexual predator websites that are available for free.
My son runs a national tenant screening business and can be contacted at http://www.ksrental.com/ or by phone at 785-542-1771. The charge is $25 and can be paid online by credit card or you can mail payment with rental application. Zach can get you rental application forms, rental denial letter, and other landlord docs that may be of help to landlords in an 11 page packet that can be emailed as a .pdf.
The $25 Tenant screening includes: credit report, civil, criminal, sex offender, jail logs (that don't lead to a case), police incident reports of the subject's address, etc. He checks the background of your prospective tenants and employees (pre-employment screening available too) in every county and state where they've lived, and in federal courts as well. The credit report will show if the applicant has had trouble paying utilities and phone bills that are usually linked with rent expenses (if you can't pay the phone or utility bill, you probably can't pay the rent). For $10 more, Zach will call the previous landlords and verify the present place of employment.
As Ray states in his blog, most sex offender links are free but there are some sites that are by subscription basis only and historical civil and criminal records going back to 1988 are not available in many cases unless the records are collected into a database which Zach has access. To save yourself the time, receive a credit report, have a thorough background check performed, and have peace of mind, call Zach to check out your next tenant applicant. Feel free to pass a link on to this blog to investment property clients who have tenant screening needs as well. Again, the applications are available online at http://www.ksrental.com/ or Zach can be reached at 785-542-1771. If you lose track of this blog after reading it, remember AR has a great search engine that allows you to select "Blogs" and enter a search phrase such as "tenant screening" which should find this article once it is indexed.
