I had a similar experience also didn't get 2 of my properties rented by November after I turned over one at the beginning of August and the other mid September.I switched to another local but flat rate company who rented both in less than 2 weeks.

Fees from broker dealers are excessive in the 15-20% range. 

I believe it was just a flat rate per property per month, and quite inexpensive.

I did learn a lot and was inspired, but rubber hit the road and I ran flat *** out of money. 

I've seen property managers charge a % or flat fee to do project management or coordinating multiple vendors for say a make ready repair turn.

You should only consider switching when your current software has a significant flaw or lacks features that force you to spend excessive time on workarounds.

My experience, in 2016 I bought a 2 flat in Chicago to rehab from MotivatedLeads.com

Assuming the building has land basis, there would be a gain on distribution in excess of basis. 

IIf you are paying a flat price to get the house painted , who cares how much paint he uses , as long as its done .

Specifically, they use a service like Plastiq; you can pay Plastiq a flat 3% fee (roughly) to make a wire transfer without triggering a cash advancement with the credit card company.
