Was a great experience with Lease Runners. Very simple, just let your potential tenant pay for the reports you want & Lease Runners send you their reports.

Lease template was thorough, efficient, and quick. The signers thought it was going to be more difficult than what it was. This definitely saved me a 45 min drive there and back. Thank you!

I wish they went back to a phone number to contact them. Now everything is more automated and losing the human touch. Other than that they have a simple and streamlined system.

Written by the company

At LeaseRunner, we believe that being a landlord should not feel like a side-hustle. Instead, owning and managing residential real estate should be more like having a passive income. We built LeaseRunner to help landlords with the riskiest decisions of tenant screening and selecting a new tenant, staying compliant with local and state lease laws, and providing landlords with tools like digital rental application, tenant screening, lease e-signing, and online rent payments. LeaseRunner is one of the very few, if not the only, tool that does not charge periodic fees. Whether you own or manage one property or 20, LeaseRunner will make you look like a tech-savvy landlord. Your applicants and tenants want to complete and pay for their application online. They are expecting a lease with e-signature, and they do want to pay rent on time if you offer Autopay. LeaseRunner can do all that. Our tenant screening reports are the most comprehensive in the industry. LeaseRunner offers full Credit Report, not just the score. It offers Eviction Report and Criminal Report according the FCRA and Fair Housing rules. In addition, our automated Payroll Verification and Cash Flow Report goes above industry standards.

LeaseRunner Is an Easy-to-Use Software for Landlords and Tenants

First my credit card was collected and this enable me to order a report for my tenant. Once tenant submitted the information and received confirmation from leaderunner that i can access the report, they asked me to update the credit card information first (again). Now after updating the credit card detail second time, i still can not access the report for some mysterious reason. Terrible website and terrible experiance so far

This was the first time I used an outside source for screening our rental property candidates.

I appreciate having the ability to be able to use just the background check option and it allow my prospects to pay for their background. I also appreciate not having to pay for their background ability to use just the option I am interested in. I am an individual landlord, with only a few doors. All the other available features would be nice but it cuts way too much into my profit and not financially beneficial for my business.

LeaseRunner is only good at screening good people

LeaseRunner is great, until it isn't. They failed to find some basic background information (felony drugs, DUIs, DV, etc.), we rented to the wrong people and now we are having to pay a lawyer.

LeaseRunner complied with all regulations in screening this customer's tenant. Various laws and regulations may prohibit reporting certain information where there is insufficient court information to meet US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) reportability standards. In this case, the customer wanted LeaseRunner to report poor name matches and court cases that occurred outside the time limits imposed by law.
