Tenant Screening Service Preferences

[Jacob Lee]

I recently finished rehabbing my first property in Atlanta, Ga and have begun the tenant screening process. I decided to use Zillow Rental Manager and despite the fact that it wouldn't let one potential tenant complete the rental application (due to unexplained reasons), it's been a very simple and easy to use service. While listening to a BiggerPockets podcast today, I heard a guest speaker talk about Cozy... I'm curious what more experienced investors have found to be the best tenant screening service. Does anyone prefer Cozy instead of Zillow or other services?

Thanks!

@Jacob Lee we used Zillow rental manager for the first couple years on our 12 houses we had and I loved it, then we used transunion for credit and background, and it worked for us.. but then we got bigger and were introduced to a lot more CRMs out there and Cozy we loved began using Cozy and Stessa and still do on our SFRs but then began apartment investing and created a Property Management company so we had to start paying for a more premium service but I would Highly recommend you try Cozy and Stessa
