Walk the property yourself for verification of work completed. 

The hard part for me is getting a reliable list of names. 

One reason I don't predict a major crash again well a few.. and why I think fence sitters may get a sore butt.is that so many of the NEW crop of landlords are better prepared than pre 08  they have more money into the deals they are far more educated.. the turn key business is far more mature and reliable than pre 08... so that helps those markets. financing has been locked in at historic lows 5 % and under long term money is ridiculously good.. also this crop of landlords had the best buying seasons ever coming out of 08 to 2011.. so asset values were reset to under replacement values and under by a long shot in some markets.. 

With 1 month fee of your rent portion and provided the new tenant passes our screening process” (credit and background checks, employment and pay stub verification etc.).

If they are VERY professional, they will have their processes in writing as verification that it is enforced equally and fairly by their entire staff. 6.

The basics - tax returns, bank and asset statements, pay stubs, income verification letter, etc - remain the same.

What are some reliable sites that you all (property managers and/or Landlords) use to screen a tenant?

We had a reliable renter already lined up so didnt have to worry about the search or vacancy. 

Your prospective tenants will need to still fill out an application and that is on you and your own due diligence on screening them with past landlords, income verification, ect... as mentioned.

Will they tell me whatever i can manage to do but profits them the most or are they a reliable source to discuss my money management?
