My goal is to own more rental properties, and was wondering whats the best strategy to achieve this, with regards to what to do with monthly excess money. 

The exceptions where you need to keep the bill in your name are when they are combined between units like your water and also utilities provided by the municipality or municipal authority.

If they rented sight unseen, there should have been an as-is clause in the lease because of that.It does seem excessive given the handyman found nothing at move out (and assuming he did a good job of the inspection). 

Deposits will not be returned (full or partial) until all tenants move out.In the event of abandonment, arrest or death, the following person has the authority to decide when to terminate tenancy and how to store/distribute my belongings:Name: ____________________________________________________Address: ____________________________________________________Phone #: ____________________________________________________

You should only consider switching when your current software has a significant flaw or lacks features that force you to spend excessive time on workarounds.

They can’t spend $5,000 per month on marketing, pay $1500 for a professional web presence, pay $600 monthly for SEO; or afford to pay VAs to screen responses.  

However, you need to be connected to the Internet in order to generate the codes on the erentallock web site.The way this works is that you setup an account with them and provide a master code.

You and/or CPA should be able to provide the depreciable carryover and excess bases, if any.
