I joined Roommates.com to find a roommate and I possibly found one, but I noticed one person said he would have to do background checks on the people who applied. How can I do that? Is there a website that would do that? They seem fine, but just in case.....


Google turns up several web sites that do it. I usually go through a PI to check out potential tenants, because it's just easier to have someone else do it. In your shoes, I'd want a credit report too (with a score, the more expensive one), since I know of one too many people who got stuck paying a lot of other people's bills in roomate situations. I've never seen any background checks turn up anything that would make me not want to rent to someone, but a shitload of scary credit reports.
