Self-managing out-of-state properties

I currently have a PM on out-of-state properties but I'm unhappy with the lack of communication and repairs being made without notice and finding out when I get my monthly transfer.

I only have 2 properties so I feel it's something I can handle so long as I find a few decent handyman contacts. 

Is there any PM software which not only allows tenants to pay rent, but report property issues? I suppose I could also have them call me; it might be overkill with 2 properties.

Thanks!

It's best to have software handle that for you, to keep all your records in order.  It also presents your current and future tenants with your level of professionalism.  Force them to use your systems and your life will be much easier :-)  To answer your question, I agree with David and recommend Innago to my investor clients with smaller portfolios also.  

Best of luck to you!
