Best Property Management Software -get me off these excel sheets
I'm at the point in investment portfolio where excel spreadsheets just don't cut it. I currently have 26 units and will be acquiring 22 more within the next few months. I"m sure this topic has been discussed before but i haven't found many helpful posts in my search.
Excel spreadsheets have been good to me for managing my few properties, but as i grow i feel i need to have something a bit more streamlined and efficient with data all in one place.
I've looked into appfolio but it seems like its geared more towards larger property owners and management companies (and a $250/month cost) I'm currently trying out buildium and feeling my way around.
I was looking for any input from other owners about what all-in-one system they use for an investor of my size (25-50 units).
I'm looking for something that
has a Mobile App where i can input repair orders or notes easily,
track upgrades repairs and updates for each unit
Easily input rent payments and also process ETF payments (I still have some elderly that prefer cash or paper check)
general accounting of expenses and income
generate or export data and reports since i love data and numbers
general ease of use
tenant portal for those that want access to digital copies of their leases, view payments, or send repair requests
I'm sure most of the management software out there has most of those things, but i'd like to get some user opinion.
