I know how much time and dedication it can take to find the right deal.

I suspect a pad for a vehicle can be provided at fairly low cost (it could use gravel instead of hardscape).To compound the parking issues, the city has been taking away parking spots for dedicated bike lanes.  

I thought the main advantage would be the ability to micro-manage your portfolio, customizing your vendor list according to each property and coordinating with a dedicated leasing agent.

Banks and institutional servicers are not usually willing to get involved and assist customers and stick to the servicing agreement to the letter to avoid liabilities, and that makes good business sence, but we adminstered deals that were underwritten and failure was not an option!

Buildium does offer the ability to interface with Quickbooks through API and offers custom buildouts.

Sure, but I agree that until you really know your problems with scale you can't justify the cost of a custom or premium software solution.

Thank you profusely for your dedication, Frank.

I’m of the opinion that when my contractor gets there biweekly to mow the lawn is fast enough to change them but we do pride ourselves on good customer relations.

(meaning, has the customer paid on time)You will see these steps occur since your company is the lender on this transaction. 

My goal with RE investing is to build enough passive incoe to one day soon leave my 9-5 and, along with my partner Account Closed, be able to dedicate myself full time to scaling our business.
