Best Software / Tools to Self Manage Rentals

[Chris Sellers]

BP Community,

What's the best software to self manage rental properties?

I self managed properties up until about 13 years ago, then switched over to Professional Property Managers after my portfolio grew.  Unfortunately, I have 6 properties in a small town where I just lost my property manager (he's shrinking his radius to focus on his booming business near his office and doesn't want to drive to the hinter lands for me anymore).  There are no other property managers in that area willing to take on my lower income housing (only a couple realtors willing to side gig $250k + houses in nice, easy neighborhoods).  

Any advice on the best new software / tools to make life easier for me?  I'm sure a lot has changed in 13 years.  

Thanks!

For my 15 properties quicken works great and it’s cheap. Does personal finances s a side benefit. Some cpas prefer quickbooks as they can import data directly but it’s overkill fro most landlords.
