"In these difficult economic times, it is critical that we
provide safe and affordable housing for those in need."
–Senator Charles Schumer

“In order for a person to successfully achieve self-sufficiency, they must not only have access to housing, support services, and employment opportunities, but also must be building positive relationships with those who have had common experiences and can offer support.”

–Center City Concern

Happy tenants saying "thank you!" to an AHMA member.

“I especially want to commend you on the quality of the classes you arrange and how organized everything is, and to give you a big “Thank you” for the hard work you perform for your members out here trying to make sense of it all.”

Airfactz Screening and Reporting Services
Spokane, WA.
Airfactz Screening and Reporting Services has been in business for more than 30 years. We currently hold an “A” rating with the Better Business Bureau and recently passed an Experian audit with no incidences. We pride ourselves on providing timely, accurate, and ethical reporting practices at a reasonable cost.

Airfactz currently represents many Housing Authorities as well as management companies that transact with tax credit, Section 8 and other affordable properties. A partial list of public clients includes: NEWHS – Spokane, Central Oregon Housing, Capitol Hill HA-Seattle, Seattle HA, Grays Harbor HA, Bellingham HA, CCWHA-Wenatchee HA, Missoula HA, Snohomish HA, Chelan Douglas HA, Muckleshoot Tribal Housing, Coeur d’Alene Tribal Housing, Nampa HA, and many more privately owned management companies. Not only do we provide tenant screening, but we provide employment screening and consumer reports, too.

The Airfactz system is fully automated but that doesn’t mean you have to be fully automated. We can accept applications online, via fax or by email. You, the client, chooses how you want your account to work for you. Your secure online account is easy to learn, easy to read and easy to manage. It can be customized to fit your needs. For example, we can set up a master account, followed by separate accounts for each complex. We will set-up the various types of reports you need for each complex or each type of tenant. We set-up individual users and passwords for each person who has access. You are in control.

Tenant screening is a like a huge puzzle. Airfactz professional screeners are trained to spot inconsistencies and gaps that might reflect problem areas or warrant further investigation. We communicate with you throughout the day, keeping you apprised of the status and findings of the report.

You may access the account 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You will get credit information in less than a minute, followed by criminal information that generally takes 1-2 business days. That’s because criminal data can be misleading and can contain misinformation. It is our policy to review all criminal data before we release it. Rental and work references depend on the response from the former landlord or employer. We track evictions, credit issues, criminal data, SSN and driver’s license verification along with reference checking. We get exceptional information from the Pacific Northwest states because we have been doing business here for so many years.

Airfactz wants to be your partner, not just a vendor. We are so confident in our services, that we offer 3 free screenings to members of AHMA who wish to compare us side-by-side with their current company. (You must complete a member application and sign disclosure documents to qualify.) We also offer volume discounts to those who qualify.
