Also, do you prefer a shareable spreadsheet vs a straight email blast..
Thanks!

I'd suggest creating "card" type listings with an image and a nicely formatted title and details. Do this both on the website example and in your emails, with clickable contact info.
Your copy does a good job of focusing on your audience. Make the top of the page do the same. Right now it looks like some kind of profile. Insert a relatable stock image, maybe of a nice apartment interior, or a person surrounded by boxes and smiling. Show your audience what you will give them-easy access to nice homes. Use a headline that does the same. "Find your home in a fraction of the time. Get curated Craigslists homes from a licensed realtor." Put your information on the bottom. You're selling a specific service, not yourself in this case.
Add a few testimonials as you gain traction.
You may also need a more robust payment system like Moonclerk to do automatic recurring payments.
You could also add a contact form for if someone wants to pay you to find them a specific Craigslist property.
Great concept and good luck!

Also use a Favicon for the website, even if it's not something very complex or designed, at least have one

This is a very personal opinion but I would change the picture for another one without the Google Glass.
Remove "Mission Statement" and just leave something similar to " To make finding an apartment easier "
I'd recommend you use a template to make the page look nice, if you don't have a designer to make a custom website
Highlight the pricing a little bit more, it has the same color and text font as all the other info
Use a different email that's not from gmail, that looks informal and doesn't make me trust the service enough compared to a company email, for example: adam@brooklynapartments.com

Yasu - Thanks so much for this feedback, those few changes already make it look so much better. I did have two questions for you:
What's a favicon? Sorry I'm a bit of a newb
I did use a template on Carrd. Should I use something different?
Thank you again!

A favicon is the image you'll see in a browser tab. it's typically a logo of some kind.
