Mostly a pull from the three main credit reporting agencies, Transunion, Equifax and Experian. This will show any recent judgments related to eviction, which is often the main reason for the background check, but can also show if the renter's debt picture (and income picture to the extent it's listed) leaves enough money to pay the rent. These will also show recent bankruptcies (which from a landlords point of view, are oddly a good thing).

More expensive background checks may divulge criminal convictions and charges, which are probably more than a landlord needs to know. Also included are prior addresses, which can be queried for references.

The most expensive legal, civilian backgruond checks may include international travel, product and service preference, names of friends, family, neighbors, schools attended, children (and their schools attended), sometimes academic performance, possession of firearms licenses, lists of owned real property, and quite a lot more. For purposes of background checking a renter, this would be overkill.

Gray Intel backgruond checks can reveal far more than this.

This should have been disclosed when the landlord performed the background check, before the lease was signed.
