Some of the projects were with a local partner as well and then the managing chores were split between us.The lending perspective was stiff in the beginning, as I didn't have any experience at all, also no credit score, and that project was only by myself, so the leverage was low, but I could work on a low-price property to start.Fast forward 5 years, I have built a credit score with 2 credit cards under my ITIN of more than 650, and done 4 properties as experience.

It sounds like you’re on the right track by diving into learning as much as you can.

You are already on the right track.  1. 

We very rarely give compensation or credits to our tenants.

No tracking is required.  

It’s made tracking my finances accurately a real headache and has me questioning the platform’s reliability.

Looking for some opinions please..I am on track to close on my second investment property (3/2)  in a few weeks or so with flexible plans for the Seller to rent it back at a discount for a couple months. 

We start out building just an internal tool for our own wholesaling business, but we opened it up at some point to actually look for partnerships.The main difference is just we directly ping the credit union for phone numbers, so the data is never stale.

They run your credit report to start so I did not love that.  

Of course you get the basics but if you want to full version of the tool it $50.00 bucks per mo. extra and you need to buy credits for things like skip tracing.To be honest I've learned so much more right here through Bigger Pockets, and I believe  you can find a mentor on here or someone that would be willing to help you out right here.
