What Tools Do You Use?
I have my loan set up to buy my first property. I live in St. Louis, MO but my property will be in Destin, FL. There are so many online tools/services to choose from for running the business that it can be overwhelming so I thought I'd come to the experts.
What tool do you recommend for:
- Finding a property to buy (I've used Mashvisor for this so far)
- Analyzing the market and individual property (Mashvisor has some great tools, but I don't trust their numbers. I've also used All the Rooms which I like a lot better)
- Property Management - I'm thinking of hiring someone to do cleaning and maintenance (tools for this?) and doing the booking (tool for this?) and bookkeeping (tool for this?) myself.
- Understanding local rules and regulations
- Taxes
Is there anything I missed?
Thank you,
John
