TransUnion has introduced a new mandatory attestation requirement and enhanced its report delivery capability. These changes aim to improve security, compliance, and the overall tenant screening process.
At Listing 2 Leasing, we stay ahead of industry updates. Our platform will seamlessly integrate with TransUnion’s latest enhancements, ensuring landlords and property managers continue to receive accurate and timely screening reports.
Understanding TransUnion’s New Attestation Requirement
TransUnion now requires mandatory attestation before accessing tenant screening reports. This means landlords and property managers must confirm compliance with fair housing laws and data security standards.
Why TransUnion Introduced This Change
The new requirement enhances data security and aligns with evolving industry regulations. By implementing an attestation step, TransUnion aims to:
- Prevent unauthorized access to consumer reports
- Ensure compliance with Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) guidelines
- Strengthen data privacy measures
What This Means for You:
- Increased Compliance: Users must verify that they follow legal and ethical tenant screening practices.
- Improved Data Protection: The new process ensures that sensitive applicant information is handled responsibly.
- Streamlined Screening: While adding an extra verification step, this requirement strengthens the integrity of the process.
Enhanced Report Delivery Capability
In addition to the attestation requirement, TransUnion has upgraded its report delivery system. These improvements allow for faster and more reliable access to screening reports, benefiting landlords, property managers, and agents.
Key Benefits of the Update:
- Quicker Report Access: Faster delivery means reduced wait times for tenant screenings.
- Better User Experience: A smoother process minimizes delays in rental applications.
- Stronger Security Measures: Enhanced encryption ensures sensitive data remains protected.
