FAQ: What is the difference between RentSpree and TransUnion?

We include the online rental application in addition to the TransUnion screening reports. TransUnion does not offer the application.
RentSpree provides additional marketing tools for you to use, such as:
- An ApplyLink™ to apply and screen directly for your property that can be posted on social media, the MLS, or any listing site you are advertising on.
- A Application Flyer to print and bring to live showings or open houses. Applicants can scan the QR code provided and submit a completed application and screening reports before leaving the property.
Collect Rent through your RentSpree dashboard by connecting your online bank account and your Applicant's online bank account.
Create public listing pages from your RentSpree account to showcase property listing photos, videos, amenities, and more!
Create a Branding Page with RentSpree to showcase your expertise, licenses, and certifications.
We offer RentSpree PRO, which is our service that offers extra features including:
- Document upload - Request extra documents from the applicant such as a government-issued ID, pay stubs, W-2s, and more!
- Reference checks - Upon request, RentSpree will reach out to employers, landlords, and references included on the rental application to verify the information provided.
As RentSpree is not a CRA, Credit Reporting Agency, RentSpree uses TransUnion to generate the Credit Report, Criminal Background Check, and Eviction Related Proceedings.

While RentSpree and TransUnion may seem similar, RentSpree offers more features at a lower cost.
