What is your favorite tenant screening service?
Hello All,
Was searching online but haven't seen a recent thread/post in a while on this and since these services change often would love to hear what you use when screening tenants.
Ideal features:
- Credit report (preferably of an actual credit bureau)
- Criminal check
- Eviction check
- Option for me to fill in the tenant's data myself (many residents around this area are more comfortable with paper / phone than using the internet.)
- Preferably $35 or less (so I'm not charging potential residents an arm and a leg)
Services I've heard of but have yet to try:
- Cozy.co <-- No ability for me to enter the tenant's data
- Houserie <-- This one seems promising. Do people trust this?
- On-site.com <-- Referred by a local but $40 for everything these days.
- Transunion / Experian service <-- Seems to require tenants to fill out form
Many thanks in advance for any advice in this realm!
