RICHMOND ROOMIES BRINGS RICHMOND A ONE OF A KIND ROOMMATE VERIFICATON RESOURCE


    /Virginia News Articles/ - RICHMOND, VA, August 20, 2008 - Dedicated to making the search for a roommate or a room rental more safe and effective, RICHMOND ROOMIES , Central Virginia's Roommate Verification Resource, has launched its new website with exclusive features that focus on roommate safety.

According to its founder, Jason Dickerson, Chairman and CEO, RICHMOND ROOMIES helps clients learn more about their future roommates or tenants through advanced tenant screening that until now, has never been offered through typical roommate sites. Modeled after the profiles on online dating and social networking sites, RICHMOND ROOMIES goes beyond the typical roommate profile criteria by featuring additional client supplied and verified content via the RICHMOND ROOMIES ROOMMATE VERIFICATION REPORT, in particular; identity verification, credit verification, leasing history verification, employment history verification and an extensive criminal background screening.

Another unique offering, is the opportunity for clients to present their report to multiple rentals offering a safer insight as a potential roommate. Launched in August 2008 by Richmond native Dickerson, RICHMOND ROOMIES , a Richmond based company, is the fastest growing roommate resource site on the Internet. Since its launch, RICHMOND ROOMIES is active in central Virginia with future plans to open offices across the United States including: California, New York, Massachusetts, Texas, Washington, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Oregon, Georgia, New Jersey and Maryland. RICHMOND ROOMIES also has plans to launch in Washington DC within the next few months.

The RICHMOND ROOMIES ROOMMATE VERIFICATION REPORT is simple to read and visually oriented, verifying information previously completed by each applicant. In addition to the standard fields such as current employer, previous residence, current income status, personal references and current identity information, RICHMOND ROOMIES gives landlords the opportunity to cost effectively screen and verify potential tenants. The RICHMOND ROOMIES ROOMMATE VERIFICATION APPLICATION & AUTHORIZATION FORM allows tenants to safely divulge information to their potential landlords, offering a better understanding of who they are and a much safer rental experience.

Unlike no other resource of its kind, RICHMOND ROOMIES offers all four verification reports (credit, leasing, employment and criminal) at a cost efficient resource fee of $30 per application. Although applications may be submitted by either potential party, each application must be signed and authorized by the potential tenant. RICHMOND ROOMIES furthers the authorization process by conducting pre-authorization via telephone and/or in-person contact with the applicant prior to screening.

"Finding a roommate is a universal experience. At RICHMOND ROOMIES , we know that people do not connect solely on gender, age and location. It's their safety status that needs to be verified in order for them to be a truly safe and rentable tenant," explains Dickerson, a successful entrepreneur in the online lifestyle industry. "To facilitate the 'getting to know you' process, we designed RICHMOND ROOMIES to be the first roommate verification resource that incorporates individual and background screening with the in-demand matching needs of central Virginia."
