TenantProof vs RentPrep

RentPrep is a solid choice for credit and background checks. But when a tenant submits income documents, RentPrep takes their word for it. TenantProof doesn't.

The Income Verification Problem

~40% never completed

About 40% of SmartMove income verification reports are never completed by applicants. When they do submit documents manually, there's no way to verify authenticity through credit-based tools.

Self-reported = unverified

RentPrep's income estimates come from credit data, not actual documents. When landlords request pay stubs or bank statements separately, neither RentPrep nor SmartMove can tell if those documents are real.

Better Together

RentPrep tells you

  • Credit score: 720 (good)
  • Background: clean
  • Evictions: none
  • Income estimate: $65K (from credit data)

"Looks like a great tenant!"

TenantProof reveals

  • Pay stub: math errors in YTD totals
  • Tax rate: 8% (should be 6.2% for SS)
  • Bank deposits: don't match pay stub amounts
  • Employer: no results for company name

"Documents show multiple red flags for fabrication."
