What happens when passionate property owners communicate to solve the industry's biggest issue? You get TenantTracks.
TenantTracks was founded in 2010 out of a critical need: to provide tenant screening reports with unparalleled accuracy and superior data sources. Founder Bob De Cosmo, a leading advocate for property owner rights at the Connecticut Legislature and a seasoned property owner/manager, encountered persistent frustration with inaccurate screening reports and, crucially, the significant number of missing eviction records from nearly half of Connecticut’s courts. Driven to create a better solution, he embarked on a mission to revolutionize tenant screening.
De Cosmo assembled a dedicated team of professionals, including screening industry pioneer Paul Jenney, who had previously led one of the nation's first tenant screening businesses, alongside real estate agents, programmers, and private sector employees. With nearly a century of combined rental property experience, the team aimed to establish the rental property industry's gold standard in tenant screening.
Their singular goal was to create the most comprehensive and accurate report possible. This involved tirelessly converting paper court records, acquiring redundant data sources, and consistently exceeding market expectations. Data quality became, and remains, the paramount priority of TenantTracks.
Locally run and family operated out of Waterbury, Connecticut, TenantTracks has evolved into a powerful platform that empowers property owners and real estate professionals nationwide. The company is a proud partner of the Connecticut Property Owners Alliance - CTPOA - and the Landlord Collection Agency, further solidifying its commitment to serving the landlord community. Offering unmatched regional precision in New England, while extending reliable services across the country, TenantTracks stands apart. It delivers complete tenant profiles through extensive criminal history reports, surpassing typical limitations, and comprehensive eviction records from all permissible states.
A key differentiator is its alias name eviction matching. With nearly 50% of marriages ending in divorce, and names frequently changing, this feature is crucial for uncovering hidden eviction records. Furthermore, unlike single-source, white-label screening companies, TenantTracks leverages robust data aggregation from multiple independent database providers, ensuring unparalleled tenant insight.
Adding to its value, TenantTracks introduces landlord-provided payment data. This unique feature allows landlords to share negative rental payment experiences, creating an exclusive database of renter payment behavior. See late payments, partial payments, cash for keys, and more, offered free with every account, solidifying TenantTracks as a leader in comprehensive tenant screening.
TenantTracks was built by landlords, for landlords. Every report run through the service directly supports its ongoing fight to protect and advance the rights of property owners.
