What you get

TenancyIQ collects consent, runs the checks, and gives you a vetting summary you can keep for this tenancy — the same kind of screening a property manager would charge much more for, without chasing applicants yourself.

Property managers often charge $50–150+ to vet an applicant. This is self-serve screening for one rental decision — consent, checks, and a record you can keep.

  • Credit & adverse history
  • Tenancy Tribunal orders on file
  • Court fines search
  • NZTA driver licence verify when they provide a licence
  • Structured summary + downloadable credit report PDF
  • Insurer-friendly vetting summary PDF
  • Applicant consent handled for you
  • Send the person a copy on request

Every vetting run includes a structured summary, the downloadable Centrix credit report PDF, and a TenancyIQ vetting summary for your records and insurer — preview below or download the full sample PDF.

How to read this

  • No Tribunal matches on this search

    That is one positive signal — still weigh income, references, and how they present in person.

  • No defaults, judgments, or insolvencies listed

    Useful context — combine with rent affordability, references, and your property standards.

  • Score 712 · Centrix

    Credit score returned by Centrix on this check. Not a TenancyIQ recommendation. Compare against other applicants rather than a fixed cutoff.

  • NZTA licence details matched

    Name and date of birth matched NZTA records for the licence they provided.

  • Composite risk badge

    This is a quick summary generated from the checks above — it's not a tenancy decision. Always weigh it alongside references, income, and how the applicant presents.

Example only — synthetic data, not a real person. Your $15 check includes the Centrix PDF plus a TenancyIQ vetting summary for insurer records.

How it works

  1. 1

    Enter the property and their email

    Sign in, add the address they want to rent, and the person’s name and email. No subscription required.

  2. 2

    They complete identity and consent

    We email them a short form — legal name, date of birth, current address, and credit-check consent. You cannot skip this, and you do not pay until they finish.

  3. 3

    Pay and read the vetting pack

    $15 inc GST per person when you run the check. You get a readable summary, the credit report PDF, and a vetting summary for your records.

Frequently asked questions

No. Tenant vetting is a one-off payment per person. You need a free TenancyIQ account so we can collect consent, take payment, and hold the report on your behalf. Starter is optional if you later want listings, notices, and the full tenancy record.
