Does any one have an opinion on Landlordportal.com, Landlord411.com, Mrlandlord.com or something similar? Or do you just use Equifax, etc.

I was leaning toward Mrlandlord.com, but see they require a in-office inspection. Is this inspection normal to similar services?

Thanks for your help.

I don't have experience with those. I use MCC Group (mccgrp.com). With Equifax, you only get credit. I want to see credit, criminal, and rental history. Most landlord companies give you all that.

The office inspection is actually a new requirement driven by the 3 credit bureaus to cut down on identity theft.

This will be required by whomever you use. You can join american apartment associations they have a credit report program the last I checked.
