Perform the same task in each app to ensure a fair comparison.Load a property with pictures and details.Market that property.See what your marketing looks like from the public's perspective.Submit a fake application to see how easy the process is.Run a credit/screening report on yourself.Enter a maintenance request, assign a vendor, and attach a fake invoice.Enter charges to the tenant's ledger.Enter recurring charges and automatic late fees.Sign documents electronically.Run owner reports.After testing a few apps, one should clearly stand out.

I'm fairly confident from reading online we don't qualify for an exemption, but I'm trying to assess actual closing costs to trying and reduce them All details:Bought the house 2.5 years ago for $980K (left on mortgage $753K), we have a clause for an assumable mortgage for me to take over (I can keep same rate).

I just got off a call yesterday with a investor group with a bunch of blue island buildings,  from there experience tenants have been pretty good but the buildings are older and a lot of unexpected problems have arisen so I would say make sure to have a good inspector and some reserves incase work is needed and its a good area to cash flow.

You will wonder why you didn't move them out in the first place and bump up to market rate.I recommend studying your market to determine a fair rate.

Quote from @Celia Moore: Our site is fairly big, holds lots of information.

I want to make sure clients feel this is fair and transparent—has anyone structured their commissions similarly, and how’s it worked for you?

In contrast the one with a bunch of deferred maintenance has been enough of a headache I don't want to buy number 3 (primarily because I am not as good at painting and handyman work as I thought and have much less free time to work on it than I thought). 

Cash Flow is fairly good in most areas.

Screen tenants, adhere to fair housing laws, and consider property management apps.

I think these are fair questions to ask and are not negative or derogatory, nor are they meant to be.
