The only information you need to start your search is the person's first and last name.

It typically involves examining records such as employment history, educational qualifications, credit reports, and criminal records to assess a person's suitability for employment, rental agreements, or other purposes.

It is similar to a reference but more detailed. The idea is that if enough landlords fill out tenant reports, people that rent long term will have a history, with reports that have been completed by many different landlords over many years. This could be really useful when evaluating whether or not to rent to them! Though the outstanding rent does not get reported to the credit agency, it is noted in the tenant report. Other landlords will be aware of their history and you may be able to track and find the tenant for collection purposes by using information posted by other landlords.
