Best Answer

There are several reporting services that a landlord can use to research a tenant. One is the National Tenant Network, based in Tewksbury, Massachusetts. There are others. Also, a credit check will usually show that a person had an eviction case, often listed at the bottom of the report. Every landlord should use one of these services, but know that these reports are often very oversimplified, and usually don't get updated. For instance, sometimes, a landlord will get a judgment against a tenant for back rent, then work out a deal where the tenant pays it off. Rarely does anyone go back to court to update the case file, and, if they did, the reporting agencies rarely update their records. So, the judgment on file might no longer be accurate.
