In my search, I've noticed that many positions require proficiency in Yardi.I've been actively looking for effective ways to learn Yardi, but it seems challenging to find suitable training or courses online.

You want an accountant that can help you strategize and who is responsive when you want to know the tax consequences of the decisions you are making throughout the year.Good luck in your search.

With Appfolio you could select your preferred vendors. 

Start by going to www.narpm.org to search their directory of managers.

Hey @Megan OConnor, I can't comment on the area specifically but it is doable.You need to search AirBNB and VRBO to get a look at the competition (don't forget to look at VRBO)You have to work into your plans the downturn during the off season.

And lastly, I search FunishedFinder listings nearby, find comparable properties, and track the listed rent for a few months (does it increase, decrease?).

Have you already started connecting with any local professionals, or are you still searching?
