Tenant verification red flags — and what Maltese law won't let you check
Verifying tenants in Malta is a balancing act between protecting your property and respecting strict data protection and equality rules. This guide explains the practical red flags that really matter, what you can legitimately ask for under Maltese law and the GDPR, and which questions or checks are off-limits. It also covers the grey area of rejecting tenants based on gut feeling, and how to document decisions safely. Finally, it shows how Letify’s built-in verification helps landlords avoid risky ID storage while still screening tenants effectively.
