"...after spending $1.7 million to install solar systems on nine rental buildings in the Bronx, Brooklyn and Queens, Daniel Benedict, the founder of Benedict Realty Group, estimated that the investment will have paid for itself in about five years."
I only learned about SmartMove problems after helping a family member apply for a rental and watching the application quietly stall because an old court filing showed up with no outcome attached. The landlord treated it like an active legal issue and never followed up, even after we explained the case had already been resolved. This article explains really well why SmartMove background check mistakes happen so often and how missing dispositions and mixed records end up in tenant reports: https://consumerattorneys.com/article/smartmove-background-check-mistakes. What stood out to me is how much of the process depends on partial court data and automated matching, which makes it easy for the wrong version of someone’s history to keep being reused.
