That's what one bad tenant typically costs a Prince Edward Island landlord.

Most of that loss is preventable.

Bad tenants almost always leave a paper trail — the problem is that most landlords don't check carefully. Here's what a proper screening catches before you sign the lease.

Fake pay stubs & inflated income

AI analysis catches font mismatches, math errors, and metadata red flags in uploaded income documents.

Prior evictions they didn't mention

Eviction history searches surface past court records even when applicants claim a clean record.

Former landlord reference gaps

Automated verification reaches out directly — applicants can't forward requests to a friend pretending to be their landlord.

The fix

$99 of screening vs $7,770 in losses.
