Rental Management Software/Apps Recommendations or Tips!!!

[Thomas Korbos]

Good morning everyone!

I am a young real estate investor finally getting involved in the market by starting my own management portfolio for landlords who simply don't have the time or pleasure to manage their own property. My goal is to turn this management portfolio into my own business as I gain more properties to manage over time.

I recently was able to acquire my first property to manage in the Tampa/Wesley Chapel area and I wanted to reach out to anyone in the Bigger Pockets Forum who has the knowledge and experience when it comes to managing properties and could share any tips that would guide me to be successful throughout the process and grow.

If there are any management software or apps anyone would recommend to store property data in to stay organized, and to aid in any maintenance request by the tenant, please share!!!!  

Also regarding dealing with maintenance, would it be smarter to have a relationship with multiple contractors incase one isn't available or offers a better repair price or to just stick it out with  just one contractor? 

I would really appreciate anyone who takes the time out of their day to respond to this post. Thank you!
