The Hawaii Rental Credit Check Form should be given to all potential tenants who will be renting the property, as it obtains each applicant's authorization to check his or her credit history.

Hawaii Rental Credit Check - What else should I know?

Hawaii Rental Credit Check Forms help to gather information needed (including the tenant's authorization) to conduct a credit check on a tenant. If you are interested in tenant screening, you should check out TransUnion's SmartMove, which allows Hawaii tenants to submit their private information directly to TransUnion. TransUnion then provides Hawaii landlords and property managers with a leasing recommendation, credit report, and criminal history for each tenant. The benefit with TransUnion is that tenant's credit score is not impacted with SmartMove because the tenant initiates the request for their own file to be sent, so it's a 'soft hit' on their history, which doesn't impact their credit.
