The Great Renter Features
Adverse Media Screening
The platform searches news articles, international outlets, blogs, press releases, and other public sources for reports linked to an applicant. It checks for topics such as fraud, theft, financial misconduct, and regulatory breaches across more than multiple countries and languages. Property teams can review relevant media mentions alongside the rest of an application; a match is not proof of wrongdoing.
Global Watchlist And Sanctions
This feature checks an applicant’s name against international sanctions and watchlist databases and returns a politically exposed person (PEP) result. The report flags any match for review. This helps property teams assess a match alongside the rest of the screening report; it does not confirm wrongdoing.
Equifax Credit Check
The software retrieves the applicant’s Equifax Canada file with their consent and presents the details in a one-page report. It shows the credit score, accounts and payment history, inquiries, and public records such as collections, bankruptcies, and legal proceedings. Property teams can review this history alongside the score when assessing an application. Certn describes the check as a soft inquiry that does not affect the applicant’s score.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does The Great Renter help property managers screen applicants across multiple properties?
The platform organizes applications in a property-manager dashboard that shows them across the portfolio and files each report under the relevant property.
How can property managers share The Great Renter reports with owners?
Property managers can share a sealed screening report with the property owner. The report cannot be edited after issue, so the owner sees the result returned by the bureau.
Does The Great Renter connect with property management software?
Yes, its API can start screenings from existing software and return results to that system.
How does The Great Renter handle applicant consent and identity checks?
The software sends each applicant a secure link. On their phone, the applicant verifies their identity with a government ID and live check, then consents to the screening before it begins. Leasing staff do not collect the applicant’s documents.
Which screening checks does The Great Renter give leasing teams access to?
Leasing teams can run identity verification, Equifax credit checks, adverse media searches, and global watchlist screening through this software.
