I called the bank to see if direct deposit through Cozy would count, but sounds like a 'no.'

@Justin MlekusAgree with @Jon Schwartz on Cozy.

I use Cozy online.

Cozy allows you to not only collect rent but tenants can also message you through the platform and put in maintenance requests.

Besides, if it's small holes from hanging pictures or whatever, to make the place cheery, cozy, and fun, isn't that the kind of tenants you want ?

With Cozy I was able to see at what date each tenant scheduled their payment.

Hello Cozy Experts and Bigger Pockets Enthusiasts.

I have a lot of interest in it, I've had about 20 people come and look at it but no one is committed to getting it. im telling them that they need to do a credit report and a background check through cozy at a cost of $40 that I will take off of the first months rent. this is not working... what do you have prospective tenants do for an application, and does cozy work for you 

I am using Cozy as my application process but they do not have a reject button.

If it takes two months, apply the deposit and charge them for the remainder.I also recommend you purchase "Every Landlord's Legal Guide - California Edition" and learn the basics of managing your rental within the confines of the law.
