I did try to set up a property management software for collections but as I live in a rural area received a TON of pushback from my tenants about sending money over an App they were not familiar with.

The ongoing issues are seriously impacting my financial tracking, and it’s disappointing, especially when other budgeting apps using third-party services seem to have no trouble with reliable syncing.I’ve been looking into alternatives like REIHub.

The app is user-friendly and integrates with popular CRMs, making it ideal for both beginners and experienced investors.

Can you share whick app you chose to use in the end?

There are several groups that have meetings, check the 'get started' tab up top and look for any that are listed there, plus the meetup app and I am on the board of the local REIA. 

My current goal is to transform my professional Excel budgeting tools into an AI-powered app to streamline day-to-day property management, particularly for financial operations.

I think this may be a built in functionality of the Turno app, but I don't use Turno and my cleaners don't seem to offer that as part of their standard process.

You can begin to shore up your personal case to defend AP/PE before they ever file.

For one unit I'd think you could keep track of it in excel or a free database app.

Also consider contacting houses that look vacant, simply door knocking in a neighborhood that you are interested in and talking to the homeowners in a genuine way, For Sale By Owners is another potential, using an App like Nextdoor or Facebook pages/groups related to local real estate and just telling the group what you are looking for, contractors also know about houses coming on the market soon and so do property management companies, and finally garage sales are a good way to find off-market properties as people prepare to sell.To Your Success!
