I'm trying to rent my condo out, and I want to avoid any riff raff. How do I check someone's credit before I rent to them? Is there some agency or some website that I can pay in order to get their credit history?

Check out this site. it is invaluable for landlords and will provide credit checks and has information about undesirable tenants. A good site!

As a side note, make sure that you are following the Fair Housing laws, both federal and for your state/city/county. Ask for references and follow up with them. You must treat all applicants exactly the same or you may be charged with violation of the Fair Housing laws.

Credit reports are reasonably priced, no annual fees, quick sign up and online access once the needed documents are received:
