Pay stub showed $6,400/mo but bank deposits were $3,200. LeaseSafely flagged it in seconds. Saved me from a nightmare tenant.

I used to just eyeball documents. First time I ran this, it caught a mismatched employer name I totally missed. $5 well spent.

The reality

Credit checks don't catch fake documents. That's how bad tenants get in.

$15K–$30K

The cost of one bad tenant

Lost rent, legal fees, LTB delays, property damage, and the stress of eviction. One fraudulent tenant wipes out a year of income.

50%+

Applications with misleading info

Property managers report that over half of rental applications contain inflated income, altered documents, or fabricated employment history.

0%

What credit checks catch

Equifax and TransUnion verify credit history — not whether the pay stub your applicant sent you was made in Photoshop five minutes ago.

LeaseSafely catches what credit checks miss. Cross-check documents for fraud in 45 seconds, for $5 — before you spend $30 on a credit report for someone who faked their income.


How it works

From upload to verdict in three steps

Use this right after receiving documents from an applicant — before running credit checks or calling references.

01

Upload documents

Share a link with your applicant or drag in the files yourself — government ID, pay stub, bank statement, and employment letter. PDFs, photos, and scans all accepted.

02

AI cross-checks everything

LeaseSafely verifies the ID, extracts income figures, confirms the employer name, and checks for inconsistencies across all documents. Tampering signals are scored automatically.

03

Get your verdict

A full report arrives in ~45 seconds. Risk score out of 100, a PASS / REVIEW / FAIL verdict, and a plain-English breakdown of every signal checked — no jargon.


What you get

Everything a credit check doesn't tell you

One report covering identity, income, employment, and document fraud — so you never rent blind.

Know their ID is real

Validates government-issued ID, extracts name and date of birth, and flags tampered or inconsistent documents — before you ever meet the applicant.

See if they actually earn what they claim

Extracts gross income from pay stubs, cross-references against bank deposits, and calculates the rent-to-income ratio — automatically.

Confirm the job and the salary match

Cross-matches employer name and salary across pay stub, employment letter, and bank deposits. Salary inflation is flagged and weighted in the score.

Catch forged pay stubs before you sign

Scores each document for tampering signals. Inconsistencies are surfaced with plain-English explanations — not just a number.

Understand exactly why they passed or failed

Risk score out of 100 with a full penalty breakdown — see exactly why points were deducted. Makes your screening defensible.

Report history & PDF export

Every screening is saved to your account. Pull up any past report, export it as a PDF, or share it with a co-owner or property manager.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How accurate is the screening?
LeaseSafely surfaces document inconsistencies and fraud signals to support your decision — it doesn't replace your judgment. The AI is designed to catch what manual review misses: mismatched names, inflated salaries, inconsistent deposit patterns. Every flag is explained in plain English so you understand why it was raised.
How long does a screening take?
Most reports complete in under 45 seconds from the moment documents are uploaded. Complex or low-quality scans may take slightly longer.
What documents are supported?
Canadian driver's licences and passports for ID. Pay stubs and employment letters for income and employer verification. Bank statements (PDF or image) for deposit pattern analysis. PDFs, photos, and scans all work.
Does the tenant see their score?
No. The screening report and risk score are only visible to you, the landlord. Tenants who submit documents through a shared upload link are never shown the verdict.
Is this a replacement for a credit check?
No — LeaseSafely is designed to run before a credit check, not instead of one. We catch document fraud and income inconsistencies that credit bureaus don't surface. Use us to filter applicants first, then run credit on the ones who pass.
