I'm a dedicated yogi, lover of jazz, and mother to one human and three fur babies.Currently, I am a freelance interior designer but I started my career in real estate about 15 years ago in Austin TX as a licensed Real Estate Agent and Property Manager.

or have the current seller provide said info. with proof of payment and or renters insurance, turnover of security deposit & first months rent which my attorney will also be collecting, With it being such a quick turn-around with their current lease expiring I want to have as much lined up as I can and be the most prepared I possibly can.Currently Still in the process of bulletproofing the new lease along with the operating and reserves accounts & setting up account/property management software.

You can search this site and get a lot of suggestions about software, state specific leases and background checks.

Buy or inherit and hold all their lives while working the properties for income.I've seen teachers, firemen, software engineers and all sorts of people utilize both strategies successfully.

Any feedback on quality and the software?

I have been talking to customer service for 2 weeks now because the software will not link to my bank account. 

For self management I think this type of software is a must have! 

Also, there are a lot of great softwares out there that basically take care of what property managers do, so you could look into that instead.10% vacancy: In my market, 5% vacancy is plenty, this is something that you will need to figure out for your particular market.

If self-managing, there are plenty of softwares out there i.e.

Airbnb, Furnished Finder, BP (to learn), all the various PM software, etc.
