Hey Jude,Welcome back to the real estate game!

Every system you try will have flaws, or you may salivate over a feature that appears in other software.Some familiar names are mentioned frequently: Stessa, Apartments.com, RentRedi, TenantCloud, Innago, RentManager, Avail, Rentec Direct, Doorloop, etc.I recommend conducting thorough research on each app online to understand their offerings, pricing, etc.

Or maybe the ESA letter is from a bogus online source that isn’t acceptable.

In my opinion, house hacking is the easiest way to get into the RE game with the lowest money out of pocket...plus if you throw in a renovation loan like the 203k or homestyle, you can boost your worth quickly!

You're not in this game for a year with the buy and hold strategy.

In order to get the attention you want through online ads (which last I checked Facebook ads require such a wide range for the demographic that it is almost not worth it), you would likely need to spend literally thousands of dollars. 

It should be on line, look it up.
