FrontLobby vs TenantSafe

FrontLobby provides landlords and property managers with tenant screening, rent reporting, and debt reporting tools. Its screening combines credit data, background information, and verified Tenant Records from Landlord Credit Bureau; the US screening page identifies TransUnion as the credit screening provider. Most screening reports are said to be available within five minutes, though package choice and identity verification or consent steps can affect timing. Landlords submit applicant information and obtain required consent before reviewing results online. Screening can be paid for by the landlord or applicant, and does not require a subscription. The free Basic Membership includes property and lease management, Tenant Records, tools and resources, marketplace access, and pay-as-you-go screening and debt reporting. One-time screening options are listed from $14.99 to $39.99, while debt reporting is listed at $99.99 or $199.99 per once. Premium Membership costs $19.92 per year and includes rent reporting for 20 leases, discounts on screening and debt reporting, and one-on-one setup and support. Larger portfolios can access bulk screening, integrations, API access, dedicated support, volume pricing, and customizable packages.

XpressScore combines credit, criminal, and eviction history with customizable criteria to produce a score.
