Tenant background check in Utah
Utah puts few limits on what you can check or charge when you screen a tenant. The rule that catches landlords is timing: before you accept an application fee, you owe the applicant a written disclosure of your rent, fees, move-in date, screening criteria, and refund process. Utah also clears many minor criminal records and some eviction cases on a schedule, so a report can lawfully leave out records you might expect to see. Get the order right and the rest of the process stays simple.
