What property management software or tools would you recommend for tracking rent payments, leases, and maintenance requests?

Should I try to make the deck on the second floor a common space or as part of a large bedroom?

Blocks away from Seton University, one with 11 bedrooms and 4 baths and the other with 14 bedrooms and 4 baths.Both show signs of deferred maintenance but one more so than the other. 

Common fees will include a set-up fee, a leasing fee for each turnover or a lease renewal fee, marking up maintenance, retaining late fees, and more.

Is it common to purchase a home with other debt?

I do pretty much like more SD than SA, but as you asked, the money that I have to invest it aint that much, goes between 30-40K to start and will be definitely for long term, as I said, I´m a beginner in this business in the US, as commons says I´m at the baby steps stage right now.
