Hello I am new to bigger pockets and to real estate in general. I purchased my first 2 rental properties earlier this year in Chicago so I'm pretty much a newbie. I am wondering what sites you guys use for tenant screening (background/ credit check). I have an open house tomorrow with a large amount of potential renters coming to look at the unit. How do you guys filter through potential tenants? Any info is appreciated, thank you

Thanks for the mention @Mark Ainley!

Hey @Angel Marquez! Like Brie, I also use www.mysmartmove.com. I have also used www.rentprep.com, but I like the detail of MySmartMove's credit reports. RentPrep and MySmartMove partnered up, so you can purchase the BG and Credit check from RentPrep if you like. The only downfall is you don't have the ability to send a link that allows the applicant to pay for them directly like MySmartMove allows you to. 

Hope this helps!
