Curious people's difficulties in managing portfolio

[Elliott Fisher]

Hi BP community, 

I'm Elliott. I live in NYC and remotely manage three SFH properties in TN. I handle all tenant & repairs mgmt, accounting & cash needs of the business. I use over 6 different software tools - ranging from text to automated accounting. It seems like a lot to juggle to manage and even more daunting as I think about scaling.

There has to be a better way. 

I'm curious how others manage their portfolios and to understand what pain points you all experience in running your properties.
