I am also looking at Hemlane since they offer 3 different service levels and get good reviews.

People who need something....Advice, Products, Services etc.....I see people on here that do not fit either of these two categories....you included.  

There are a lot of opportunities to keep it full while negating the full time management/customer service aspect.

What services will you offer. 

A cost segregation study looks at the overall building that you purchased and breaks it down as much as possible.The purpose of this is to increase the depreciation expense.Without a cost segregation study, you are depreciating the property over two items(Building and Land).However, a cost segregation study might identify items such as fencing which might be eligible to be depreciated over 15 years instead of 27.5 years.Depending on the year that the building was placed into service, you might be able to take bonus depreciation on certain items.The follow-up question to ask your CPA is will the cost segregation study help me, and by how much?

Might be worth it to hire a PM, or to look into getting a professional screening service.

Hi Aaron, I use a property tax protest service currently.

Using a lower-cost skip tracing service and then a call/mail/sms campaign service separately may reduce your costs.

When you engage with a new vendor, have it be a standard procedure that this worksheet or packet be filled out with documents provided before you will engage their services.

A pro tip is if you call shared office spaces or co working spaces in your city they also offer virtual mailbox services at usually better prices than the national ones!
