I am looking to find good tools for communicating with clients/prospets.

As an investor myself, I understand what we want to see from agents - I was more asking along the lines of the best ways to showcase properties and communication styles.

These are all questions whose answers will help you chart the way forward ... there is no one size fits all answer.From an operational perspective it is always pleasant to know that your building envelope is relatively efficient (insulated and air sealed); that building systems (electrical, plumbing, HVAC and communications are up-to-date and dependable) and that you have the ability to put accountability for resource consumption in the hands of the tenants.  

I look forward to meeting many of you and communicating with many of you!

Were the communication and payments timely or problematic?

In essence, inspect, verify, document, communicate, before funds are issued to contractor(s). 

This is strange to begin with since all communication is typically through the agents or attorneys. 

Thanks @John Underwood,Just out of curiosity, how does one listing site communicate with the other?

So when I need a new admin for the advertising business I own, I place an ad for a $10/hour entry level position and I get 100 resumes from kids who just graduated with a degree in speech communications, or marketing & PR, or some other BS degree (says the guy with a philosophy degree), and they're $100K in debt and no idea how they'll ever get out of it. 

If the property suits our management style, we would then take over tenant communication and accounts receivables.
