How do you folks track various expenses (furnishing, food, payroll, local & air transportation, referral fee, licensing fee, repairs/renovation etc.)?Do you link business credit card (or bank account) to QuickBooks? How to track cash expenses (like groceries)? Need expense tracking for taxes and self analysis.

Tenant called me saying water is leaking from bathroom upstairs to living room downstairs because there was water leakage and accuses me plumbing is old (well, house is only 20 years old).

I had multiple problems with this tenant in the past.  Want to take her to the court, get the damages and terminate the lease. Need a reference to a local lawyer.

@Mike Delprete    Can we attend AZREIA remotely? I own SF rentals in Phoenix, but I live in TX.

Hi Tracey,

I was in your situation few months back. I was on cozy and got migrated to apartments.com

I listed my house on both, but got good response on zillow (and free ad on apartments.com got close to zero response, while I got about 1000 views and 40 emails in 2 weeks on zillow).

But all my payments and lease signing, I opted to go with apartments.com because their customer support was really good (I called them thrice and they navigated me through tenant on-boarding). I also maintain my expense records on apartments.com - overall I liked it

I plan to use both zillow (for listing) and apartments.com (for tenant engagement), in future

Great information. Thank you 

Do I need commercial or residential lease agreement for running group home in Arizona?
Can some one share any sample template? Or refer an attorney who can draft one (for rental in Arizona).

First time renting to group home and no clue about lease agreement for group home. Any discussion/insight appreciated

How can I transfer my existing rental into a legal entity (like LLC). Appreciate any referrals to accounting or legal firms specializing in investment properties in Arizona.
Thank you
