@Alec Barnes As the owner of a property management company in Texas, I completely agree that a solid screening process is essential for placing quality tenants.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a reliable, quality cleaning company with great communication?

Pricing - If you cannot check your competitions price and adjust yours daily you may want pricing software (PriceLabs probably best for single listing owners/operators). 

If so, self-managing properties might not be the best use of your time - In any case, I'd encourage you to talk to multiple local property management companies, keep the above in mind, and understand how they approach management.In my experience, property management isn’t just about finding the right tenant or collecting rent—especially in a tenant-friendly state like Rhode Island.

One way we fight this is with photo verification pre-lease signing and not approving renters who don't view the place in person, our credit underwriting software also flags apps that have a high likelihood of fraud.

Costs after it’s placed in service are deductible as rental expenses.If you need help tracking these costs or categorizing them for your tax return, consider working with a tax professional or using software that helps you manage rental property expenses.

It will not replace humans in any shape or form, opendoor tried it, listing spark tried it, they are the two worst companies to deal with. 

Nowadays, people can make paycheck stubs/W2's that look convincing so just make sure you invest in software that gathers verified information on applicants.  

I'm using a software that runs on A.I. helps me capture organic leads, automation, my socials, A.i. follow up and has it's own crm.

I personally found this software a lifesaver.
