They've made rent collection an easy process for us and it's free to use as well!

Unfortunately I was forced by the title company to pay these out of my escrow funds and I will never be able to collect from the tenants. 

She says she only cleans it every night and collect change 4 hrs a night.

Accessing money from the stock market is expensive, whereas you can access the money from your real estate by collecting rent, cashing out equity, a line of credit, selling and investing in multiple properties, etc.I have a relative who has over $2 million in the stock market.

Allows you avoid a significant vacancy spike & cash flow hit, all the while you gradually grow NRI rent collections over 12-36 months. 

I want to be able to send and receive customized docs and signatures in a secure and simple way for remote onboarding of tenants without ever having to wait for the mail or printing out multiple copies again.Currently using Baselane for banking, rent collection, and bookkeeping but it falls short on the tenant record features at the moment. 

(If so they will require you to submit forms every year until you sell so they can collect their state income tax on top of any state income tax where you buy.)

If it's a good tenant, and you are collecting market rent (which is a lot for a SFR in SB) this sounds like a pretty small job to cover to keep them happy.

My uneducated two cents:There are no rules stating that you can't foreclose on active duty military, just that you have to get a court order to foreclose, under SCRA.An unrecorded quitclaim is still valid but not recording it opens the parties up to challenges and is not advisable.In some states, collecting rent while a property is in foreclosure, may be frowned upon.I'd stop getting advice from the "investors" you've been talking to.

Can you keep it rented and collect?
