I currently self manage my properties using Buildium and I love it especially the resident portal and ability to accept ACH rent payments.

In my case, I have residential rentals in one LLC, commercial properties in another, self storage in a third, and my real estate company operates in a fourth.

One accountant said it’s not subject to self employment tax since it’s considered passive (but origination fees and other loan income fees are subject to it.

I am not sure about the unattended showings, but as far as I know they were at the property showings for my buddy.Also, I don't see Nomad as a full service property management I see it more as an in between where someone wants to try to self manage a property with a little help being able to use their platforms and streamline things like leasing and customer portal for a smaller fee than a full service would charge.  

We pay a percentage to our brokerages, have marketing and education expenses, and are self employed so we pay for our health insurance, gas, etc.  

I want to set my self up in the beginning so I can scale every year or every two years.

My A class that I own I self manage I have a RE agent that puts them up they find a tenant I require 700 plus fico so that weeds out 90% of renters and then I set them up on auto pay and if they have an issue we send handyman.. to be fair my units are basically new construction and townhouses in HOA's in the Desert ( vegas) so there simply is not a lot of maintenance. there is A class in every city its just that investors get so focused on  positive cash flow they dont buy those for rental purposes so they miss out on the best rental tenants.. the higher the cash flow on paper the lower the quality of the units.. its a fact..

In my case, I have residential rentals in one LLC, commercial properties in another, self storage in a third, and my real estate company operates in a fourth.

Maybe add on Booking.com but after that it's the law of diminishing returns - lots of work/time for just a guest or two.If you are self managing I would limit the amount of platforms to the top few because it could get overwhelming tracking the property on all the various sites because they all work a little bit differently.

Once I take ownership, I will be self-managing.
