Thanks, I thought you were implying that flakey landlords listed on "free for landlords" sites. Although if it's free for renters i don't understand what difference it would make for weeding out flakey potential tenants.

I have never and will never place a newspaper ad, so I can't compare that.

Well 15 years ago there was no other option if you had a place for rent. A week in the Herald classifieds cost $200 but the Internet changed all that. Craigslist and Kijiji produced more replies so I haven't used newspaper ads for 5 years. But I only advertise every couple of years when people leave.
