@James DeRoestRestraining orders are not always that clear cut ... nor are they always applied solely in the direction one might intuitively think.  

It's counter intuitive to what we think of for market rents, but it is logical if you think about the utility allowance. 

This is reminding me of my old financial accounting classes where what is correct isn’t intuitive. 

I believe if you're already using Intuit/Quickbooks and set up their Quickbooks Payment service, you can have credit card processing and automatic payments.

Most of my tenants are going to ACH deposit but I also can invoice them from intuit quickpay or use a rent service. 

Interestingly the tech layoffs that have occurred (AirBnB, Intuit, godaddy, lyft, uber) have largely impacted employees outside the Bay Area and not local employees as much.Also if you read the news the IPO market and the tech M&A markets are very strong to enable startups to exit.

Probably not what you're looking for, but Intuit, makers of Quickbooks, have a cool rent collection tool that is only $1 fee per rent payment

Poorly-qualified applicants are willing to pay more in rent, so it can be counter-intuitive to lower the rent when you are getting steamrolled with applicants.

I would have expected law students to be difficult, its counter intuitive!

@Steve Babiak  has a lot of valid points, plus there is a certain amount of intuition that goes into proper screening.
