Start a tenant check before you sign

TenancyIQ collects consent, runs Centrix, and holds the report for this tenancy. The $15 Standard check is the bureau file. The $30 Comprehensive check adds online referee requests and photo ID — referees can reply after you pay; the credit report is never held waiting for them.

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.

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.

1. 1

   Enter the property and their email

   Sign in, add the address they want to rent, and the person’s name and email. Choose $15 standard check or $30 comprehensive check. 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. Comprehensive check also collects referees and asks for photo ID separately. You do not pay until they finish identity.

3. 3

   Pay and read the vetting pack

   $15 inc GST for a standard check, or $30 inc GST for a comprehensive check. You land on the applicant record after you send the invite — you pay there once they consent, not on the invite form. Referee replies can arrive after you pay.
