So me and my wife has a house buying company and a rental property business. We have had going on 3 years here soon, originally it was just me and one guy doing most of rehabs and construction stuff. We now have 15 properties, i went to a different model now having contractors do the majority or rehabs and i have handymen,plumber,electrician and hvac guy i can call when i need them. I manage pretty much it all and my wife does the bills and emails and such. To really grow and streamline all this whats the best way to really scale and get very organized?

    Ben, an excellent post by @Doug Shapiro .  Rent Manager and Yardi Breeze are good PM systems.  If you haven't done so already, teach your contractors/handymen how to use their smartphones to their advantage to better communicate with you.  Whatsapp is a fantastic app for sharing vidoes, pictures, and voice messages.  You can also use it to communicate with your VAs, no matter where they are in the world.  Also, consider paying them via a payment app such as Google Pay or Venmo.  They'll love you for it.  Contractors love working for clients who pay them the quickest.
