She's also not too tech savvy (neither am I), and doesnt know how to research this stuff very well online - especially for her country.We are looking for help to acquire a short term mortgage to secure our retirement home.

While they are local they have horrible interest rates and the tech is terrible.

They're a tech-enabled company that does soup to nuts PM (everything from marketing the listing, lease agreements, maintenance, handling evictions).

We just started doing this with our tenants and maintenance techs and it has been received very well.

It closely following tech stock market after all.

At 7% rates...big difference, here my fellow tech brothers and sisters are easily clearing 3-400K salary between husband and wife.

People should optimize the site itself before investing a nickel in tech. 

A good Property Manager will have the resources you'll need (contractors, leasing agents, maintenance techs and book keeping) to get you by while you focus on more important things. 

So I get one the phone and the tech starts telling me the unit is old, and to fix it will require several parts and even then they can’t warranty the work because of the age of the unit etc… I ask him how much and he says, more than $1500 for a new main circuit board and several other parts he needs to price out.

So tech people is replacing older homeowner that want to cash out and they move to sacramento/denver  for example ; and trigger the same migration loop.
