I think it makes sense this can be overcome with regular maintenance, easy communication where a tenant can report issues, having a inspection checklist, and potentially warning tenants of hazardous areas in their lease agreementNegligence on the other hand - how many inspections do we need a year?

As an agent if I get a referral I love clients who are A) Ready & able to buy B) They communicate 3) Not difficult/high maintenance.

. * Landlord/real estate specific accounting platforms: This includes companies like REI Hub, Rentastic, and RentalHero* Platforms for landlords who self-manage: This is a little hard to pin down, but I would say it includes all the myriad platforms that offer help marketing a property, signing basic leases, communicating with tenants, accepting rent via ACH, basic document storgage, etc. 

If you are interested in a specific property, you can start by contacting your agent and communicating your interest to them.

Good communication will build trust and can lead to more investment down the line.When it comes to sharing how it worked for others, people often highlight the importance of alignment in investment goals and risk tolerance.

Let him know you are serious and that he must communicate with you.

@Lynette guy I have been trying to contact Evolve as we are renting a place through them for Christmas as tenants (not hosts/owners) and they have not responded any of our communications via air BnB platform.

And any work an agent would be doing on the loan side, wouldn't the be doing anyway (i.e. communicating with buyers/sellers, chasing documents, etc?)

We can communicate via private message if you want.Thanks.

I own a few single family homes and have always communicated via texts, emails.
