Hi All,I am in the process of listing my first rental and was wondering what everyone's thoughts were regarding the Zillow Application and Screening services for tenants? 

Overall I have the impression that many software/tools--provide very interesting amount of actual deeds, history, lien info, county recorded documents, or other direct data.Here is an incomplete list of some services I'm looking into, to see if I find one (or 2) that are a good fit!

Property Radar is our favorite software by far (no affiliation other than I love it).

Any insights appreciated.Thanks, As far as I'm aware there are still a number of rental management softwares that still do background checks such as Zillow Rental Manager (I use it), Apartments.com, TransUnion SmartMove, and others.

Whichever PMS (property management software) that you use make sure it integrates with your lock.

Tenant screening is more than just reviewing applications and conducting background checks; it’s about ensuring that your property is leased to responsible tenants who will treat it with care and respect.

You are exempt from the "source of income" protection though, which means you are allowed to deny an application just because they have a housing choice voucher, which would not be the case if you owned more than 4 units. 

Is your DSCR ratio greater than 1-meaning are you cash flowing (according to the lender's criteria of mortgage, property taxes and insurance (and HOA) if applicable).

There's no perfect software out there.

He just wanted me to make something up like her application was incomplete or she didn't pay on time.
