CL post for rental. Should I keep these questions in the post?
I posted CL for my rental, and so far I haven't had any inquiry yet (it's been two weeks). On my post, I included following section
"If you are interested, please send email/text to this craigslist post with following question answered.
1. Your name
2. Your email
3. Your phone number
4. How many people will be living in this house?
5. What is your earliest moving-in date?
6. What is the best way to get in touch with you? (email, text, or phone)"
Do you think I should eliminate this part or keep it?
Also, any recommendation on any other site for uploading rental post beside CL and zillow?

@Roy C. I would try and just get the conversation going and not scare everyone away with homework up front.
Also on CL I never post the street number. It cuts down on people stealing your ad and pretending to be you.
I would also post on Zillow and FB marketplace. These have become much better for advertising and finding tenants for me.
