Your credit check & consent

How a landlord's credit check works, what you consent to, and how to view your report.

What happens

A landlord can only pull your Equifax credit report with your consent, captured through a secure link. You can see the checks tied to you under My Credit Check Report.

Good to know

Reports are viewed securely and expire automatically. A soft, consented rental credit check like this is normal and expected when applying for a place.

Want this handled for you?

OLH Property Management’s licensed paralegals and Realtors® can manage the whole tenancy — notices, LTB filings, screening and rent collection. Or run it yourself with LandlordEzy, which includes an LTB order database and AI tools.
