Configuration for credit and soft checks occurs at both company and property levels.

Credit Checks: A standard credit retrieval.

Soft Checks: An additional check which includes a public directory search of 200k+ databases around the world. It provides additional context which may include criminal records, court decisions, negative PR, social profiles, employment history and more. Soft checks incur additional fees.

Note: Our current credit check provider is CERTN, which is an Equifax reseller.
