Where to post rental listing that doesn't dispaly rent history?

Posted

I was going to post a rental on Zillow group (Zillow, Trulia, Hotpads) but it seems like they display a public record of previous rental listings (including date and pricing) for every property, which I really don't like. Do you guys have any other recommendations for where to post listings that won't keep a public record? I've tried Craigslist, but so far that hasn't been too successful.

I haven't looked extensively (and correct me if I'm wrong), but it seems like Zillow Group is the only one that will forever display rental history pricing on a property along with exact dates that every listing is posted and removed. I'm just not a fan of this because it can create the wrong impression for people, and is also unnecessarily invasive. Is Zillow Group so dominate that I would be at a great disadvantage if I did not use it to seek out tenants?
