Rent comps: RentFax, Rentometer, RentRange? Good or bad?

Hello BP,

What do you use for rent comps in your area?  How good they actually are? 

I know Craiglist, Zillow, Trulia, Realtor.com, etc provide good indications, but is there a good source that compare a lot of similar properties at once?  

I heard Rentometer does not provide really good estimates depending on the area.  

What about RentFax or RentRange?  Any experience with these or any other suggestion? 

My property is a SFR in Class A/B area.

Thank you!

@Josue Vargas - I've used only Rentometer, which for my area has proven to be pretty accurate (especially if you have a Pro account), and results compare well to other sources like Craigslist, Zillow, Trulia, Realtor.com - and what I actually end up getting for my units.
