The ONLINE Rental Exchange: Accurate Coverage through Multiple Sources.

When Criminal Records are used in the qualification of new tenants or for employment purposes, records are typically obtained through one specific database. Whether that database has sufficient criminal coverage or incomplete and vague results is generally unknown to the end user.

The ONLINE Rental Exchange has taken one additional step to ensure our clients have the most up-to-date and accurate information possible. Our professional sales team will work hand in hand with clients to ensure the database being used meets their coverage needs and in many cases multiple databases are used to ensure their properties are completely protected.

Contact the ONLINE Rental Exchange and speak with one of our sales team members today to ensure your properties are properly covered.

Sincerely,
ONLINE Rental Exchange

Can You Trust Landlord Verifications?

Have you tried to reach out to a rental reference only to find that it’s a friend or relative of your applicant? Over the years, we’ve found rental references to be historically unreliable, especially when compared to court records.

ONLINE’s eviction searches will give you any civil filings, forcible detainer or judgment associated with your applicant’s rental history. Give our sales team a call today to find out more.

ONLINE’s Systems Unaffected by “Heartbleed” Security Flaw

As you may have read in the news, a new security vulnerability nicknamed “Heartbleed” was recently discovered.  Heartbleed is a serious flaw in a feature of a popular SSL software package called OpenSSL.  This package is used on almost all Linux servers to secure transmissions.

Please be aware that ONLINE’s systems are not affected by Heartbleed because we use Microsoft servers, which do not use OpenSSL.  This means they are not vulnerable to this threat, and our client and consumer data remains secure. In addition, ONLINE employs IP address restrictions and two-factor user authentication, and we require users to change passwords regularly, all of which help mitigate security threats.

As always, if you have questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us.

The Differences between an

The Differences between an ONLINE Rental Exchange Report and a Credit Report

A credit report is a detailed report of an individual’s credit history prepared by a credit bureau and used when determining credit worthiness before opening a new line of credit.
A standard credit report includes personal data, a summary of credit history, detailed account information, inquiries for new credit lines, and accounts which have been turned over to a collection agency.
ONLINE takes it one step further by adding “Exchange Hits” to the report. These Exchange Hits come from ONLINE’s proprietary Rental Exchange and create a safety net preventing customers from moving between rentals without paying you and your industry peers, thus helping you recover debt by capturing and updating debtor contact information in real time.
ONLINE also makes the report much easier to read by color-coding applicants’ trade lines, putting any negative aspects to the top of the report in Red and including a SSN verification tool which helps eliminate fraud.
The ONLINE Rental Exchange instantly shows you what type of credit risk each applicant poses to your business. This allows you to make accurate, objective, credit-based deposit decisions on your prospective tenants every time. Call our staff today to learn more.

ONLINE Rental Exchange
