There are "turn key section 8" operators in Alabama that market to do all of the due diligence for you and you never even have to see the properties! 

So in that same vein does bifurcating assets from operations help?

And i have seen other do it like i said in San Antonio only to have that operator get in major trouble with the state and the investors get wiped out.. there is more than just YOU buying a home without an investor putting up the dollars to buy it.

I know we operate in totally different economies, "doors" here run about $100k, and far higher for small properties. 

Just want a software that does a great job handling the overall operations smoothly, a one-stop-shop for all PM needs. 

If looking to scale flips and create systems around it to minimize your time and involvement, I'd highly recommend putting a team in place that can handle the day to day operations. 

they will say you can operate a parking lot there.. plus who is going to spend the thousands upon thousands litigating this with the city ??? 

Similarly, using services like insurance back office support can streamline operations.

I was hoping to get some shared insights into what the best starter tech stack looks like for a wholesaling operation.

It really depends on your specific situation.It's good you're thinking about the operational and bookkeeping component for your financial account structure to make things easier on yourself and any financial team members you have or may have in the future.You're ahead of the curve!
