They even pre-screened the tenant and are collecting legit rents.  

We would like to start using Cozy or Zillow Rental Manager for our rentals to collect payment and screen tenants etc.

It may have been a vetting issue but they all passed screening and a decent application process.

Right now, we have 1 SFH rented out, I managed with tenant screening as well as addressing any issues the tenant might have, along with picking up rent payment.

I type on Bp on one screen and look at new listings on the other  LOL  I don't think I would only go on redfin or realtor.com if its a market I have never been in and want to find a realtor to set up my feeds  LOL> 

You might write something that shouldn’t be in there.Most credit reporting services that you screen tenants through have a standard form letter that you can use to send out the required “adverse action notice” if you denied the applicant based on information in their consumer report.

You get to the larger multifamily or commercial assets and either the investor has been investing for decades, they have sold businesses in other fields and are already astute with money and due diligence, or they are leaning on a professional that knows how to screen and buy right for that asset type.You buy property with the exits in mind and your expected time horizons. 

I assume you did a better job of screening than I did in this case. 

However, first and foremost, I screen and interview for the right tenant.

Has anyone used this service as a tenant screening tool?
