Is mysmartmove.com a tool for landlord....the answer is NO
I have been using the https://biggerpockets.mysmartmove.com for several years. and I found that even the smartmove.com claims that benefit is that tenants can get get their credit reports generated without giving out their social security numbers, meaning their identify is protected.
In realty, this product is only good for the tenants, but a disaster for landlords. Because when tenants do not pay rent, landlord can NOT report them to the credit bureaus due to lack of SS#. and the credit score comes out higher than if you get from other services. So my previous tenants were pleasant surprised that they got better credit scores.
In summary to landlords, my recommendation based on real life experience:
1.DO not use smartmove.com to screen tenants...There are better softwares.
2. DO get tenants' SS. Period.
