By your own admission you don't have a budget to utilize some of the more expensive marketing systems.

I have a few properties in high traffic areas with at I plan to utilize by putting up some “we buy houses type signs”.

Also you can save a lot of money if pm has their own handyman employees and do not need to sub out all repairs. my experience is that STRs outperform LTR by enough to cover the PM fees, utilities, and additional furnishing costs but not much more.  

Buildium does offer the ability to interface with Quickbooks through API and offers custom buildouts.

I'm 31 I never met one person who moved to Lehigh acres under 50 years old. no jobs, infrastructure, commercial, etc and no utilities either. just a land play that a developer made millions on in the past 

Sure, but I agree that until you really know your problems with scale you can't justify the cost of a custom or premium software solution.

And numbers I believe are up to $1,650/mo (or something like that) if you include utilities.

I have utility bills and mail to show I live here.Originally posted by @Albert Bui:Originally posted by @Chris Miller:I Bought a house subject to 6 months ago. 

I love to utilize VAs!

We are in a business/ venture that requires more customers, not less to charge more.
