The $25 screening fee covers the cost of Naborly’s identity, employment, and income verification and credit pull from Equifax. It covers the processing of one person’s application and information. For example, if there are two co-applicants (ie. husband and wife) applying for a property, the fee would be $50 total. The $25 fee also covers the Naborly Passport membership which enables tenants to build credit with their rent payments, and allows landlords to compliantly furnish credit data to credit bureaus.
Landlord
If you have chosen to pay for the Naborly membership, you will be charged when the applicant successfully submits their Application. Any not opened or opened - not complete Applications will not be charged. Please note that if there are unverified documents in the Application, you will still be charged.
You will be asked to provide payment information right before sending out your Application.
Tenant
If the Landlord has asked you to pay for the Naborly Application, you will be charged once you successfully submit your Application. Please note that if you have unverified documents in your Application, you will still be charged the membership fee.
You will be asked to provide payment information in Section 5 of your Application, even if the landlord is the one paying for the screening. You will not be charged at that point since you are covered for the entire first year; the membership fee will be charged a year later.
