ANyway that is  my beginners guide written by a beginner but is basically what i look for.  

Home warranties are basically like insurance for the house systems and appliances.

I think there are two maybe 3 ways to look at this in my mind.  1) you go into it and bring it all up to modern standards but using that old charm to basically take what is there bring it up to modern standards and rent it out essentially I'm thinking cocktail bar or something trendy like that.2) most banks are on really good centrally located real estate if this is true, then I'd consider it for the dirt, plan to scrape the lot and go vertical with whatever the highest and best use is.3) a kind of combo of the two, if the lot is in a good location and its doable, pull the vaults or other "character pieces" out of the building, scrape the lot, and build whatever is best suited for the site there, but incorporate those historical pieces into the final designs.Is the site near a major retail area? 

The day after I set precedence, I gave my info to others who had "illegal" ADUs and a basic "road map" to get themselves legal.  

Basically scale in paper and challenge it with your personal time, resources, desires, finance, insurance, PM, etc.

If you have less than 20-30 rentals Quickbooks little brother Quicken is much cheaper, easier, and still overkill for such a simple task.

If it is a market rate class A, B or even C properties, I would say that it (basic maintenance) is something the tenant should handle considering that for these properties the tenants likely have additional resources to handle small maintenance issues. 

Perform the same task in each app to ensure a fair comparison.Load a property with pictures and details.Market that property.See what your marketing looks like from the public's perspective.Submit a fake application to see how easy the process is.Run a credit/screening report on yourself.Enter a maintenance request, assign a vendor, and attach a fake invoice.Enter charges to the tenant's ledger.Enter recurring charges and automatic late fees.Sign documents electronically.Run owner reports.After testing a few apps, one should clearly stand out.

Basically a lot of circumstantial evidence (no video of her actually taking the packages).This evening an old car with an old man drives up my driveway.  

This log should include:•The date of activity•The property worked on•Specific activities performedExamples of activities that typically count include approving tenants, setting lease terms, handling repairs, and other hands-on operational tasks directly related to managing the property.
