Nobody at that company spent enough “live” time with me to know anything much about me. 

I am the owner of a 10,000 sqft luxury mansion in Hawaii that I have spent the past two years renovating and managing.

It's clear that you've spent a LOT of time reviewing software.

Write down all your expenses so far, including your time spent moving.

Running around with no idea what you're doing and hurling scam allegations at people who've spent years doing thousands of transactions building multi million dollar businesses in the industry you're interested in isn't going to get you anywhere.

Being handy is a great way to start and learn the business but your time should be spent finding your team and the next deal.Instead of swinging the hammer, focus on expanding your network:1) Agent/wholesalers to send you deals and list them on the back end.2) Contractors that allow a fast, efficient, value focused renovation.3) Lenders that can allow you to close on properties quickly with solid leverage. 

@Robert ZajacIn a "perfect world", a PMC would be like an attorney and be able to track how much time they spent on an owner's property and bill accordingly.

Now they’ve spent those 40 years saying it’s 90% cheaper and 90% more efficient and yet the break even is still 10-15 years.

Also, more than 750 hours in a year need to be spent in real estate.

Airbnb, booking.com etc spent 14 billion last year advertising so trying to compete against that is crazy.
