fix-it-all (joint compound with some additives) is not suitable for exterior at allYes it will wick in water as the paint deteriorates, and cause more rot, and keeping a good coat of paint on it won't be enough long-term in many/most climates.bondo (polyester auto body resin) is a cheap-ish "alternative", although harder to get detail work just right and not really all that suitable anyway (maybe ok with a good epoxy / primer, perhaps?).

We use Buildium to manage our properties, and we require all tenants to pay through that platform.

It is funny as the OTAs are trying to get people to stay on platform, but are giving everyone every reason to go off platform.

There's a variety of ways to get a deal in front of you (I'm mostly a flipper), but basically if it looks promising, I run custom comps queries and check the current & past $/sf of renovated/distressed product in that city or zipcode.Here's a chart on 90066 I generated from my tool under Market Stats > Sales Data > Specific Zip Code:- My above chart (more available) shows the Avg Renovated $/sf (High) over time in this Zip Code, something completely different than charts/providers based on Averages/Medians only, like every other platform (RedFin Below, https://www.redfin.com/news/data-center/):- Can't select smaller locations such as City or Zipcode for their $/sf data, so it's useless helping me underwrite/verify a deal.- Can set Zip Code for Median Sale Price data, but again it's the median/avg so it's useless helping me underwrite/verify a deal.Then if that looks decent, I'll run Sales Comps, and get a quick summary of some key metrics based on those comps.

What is the deal with all the different Batch platforms?

It would be great if you could review it to determine if it's suitable for use.If not, please recommend a reliable place or lawyer to review or draft a lease agreement.Thank you.

You have to dig in the dirt to be a good wholesaler, not on open source platforms.

Hawaii is #1 most expensive state in US so it's more suitable for appreciation/flips play.

I have a hard time trusting AirDNA numbers etc. and I have a hard time reaching out to hosts near me because the platform is restrictive.My home is unspectacular in a good way haha.

Other platforms that do the same are include RentRedi, Stessa, Avail, Innago, Apartments.com (formerly Cozy), and TenantCloud.If you want to go a more traditional sense and work with a more mature platform that doesn't bill your tenants you might look into Rentec Direct, Buildium, Appfolio, Propertyware, or Rent Manager.The best way for you to figure out which is going to work best for you is to explore their free trial (if offered).
