Review:
PROS:
- For $24.99/month you get introduced to renters, the site has automatic rent collection, a sample lease, advice, and the ability to re-list when your renter moves.
- On the renter side, there are no fees unless homeowners ask for a background check, in which the renter pays $29.99. The background check lasts for 90 days.
The background screening does not include a credit check, but it is recommended that homeowners get a credit check on their renters, too.
