Hello,

i was wondering what the community's experience has been with Zillow vs CL for finding long term tenants. Have you found one site better than the other in terms of the quality of leads? Thank you

@Constantia Petrou

I found Zillow to be the most effective means for placing long term tenants in my market of B tenants. Craigslist does not even compare. 

I also found that "For Rent" signs bring a lot of phone traffic but hardly any (if ever) qualified tenants.
