Self showing for prospective tenants

[Alexandra Sales]

Hi! 

Just wanted to know if self-showings are the trend or popular way of showing rental properties now? Ex: Rently etc. I wanted to get your insight if you either use this method or know your property manager uses it? Any advice, insight, or success/failures from it? 

I have spoken to a few property management companies - a few use lock boxes and do self-showings for tenants. These companies were referred, but I am still somewhat skeptical or hesitant on self-showings. Any advice is greatly appreciated!
