Always account for the costs of upcoming capital expenditure items in your purchase price.

For that reason I built a full-functioning cash flow model taking into account hard money, the mortgage refinance and all relevant operating expenses to assess monthly cash flow.

This does also include my live revenue manager, which accounts for about $20,000 - so without her about $60k for pure software integrations.

@Tessa Mac You can certainly rollover your old 403b plan into a self-directed account. 

It offers features like Automated rent collection (Tenants can set up auto-pay) and you can receive payments directly into your account without any manual tracking.

Outsourcing the 3000 would cost me .277 more per piece but that doesn't take into account my time, wear and tear on my equipment, 3 trips to the post office, making a total mess of my office, etc.Put another way, knowing I can only do about 40 per hour tops times the .277 per piece I save by doing it myself, comes out to $11.08 an hour.  

I recommend finding a tax strategist who specializes in real estate taxation, financial planning and tax planning.You may want to consider working with your accountant remotely to expand your options.I would also recommend looking for a accountant willing to work with you throughout the year.
