Or building out systems like CRMs.

A good company will have you fill out some easy online paperwork asking you some details about the doors, and they can get you transitioned into their system in 1-2 days, including reviewing your leases and notifying tenants about the change in management. 

And the favor is please mark me in your system as do not call.My wife has started doing the same and it works for her as well. 

How many HVAC systems?

The $50k for the 1st year of flipping, to flip 10 homes with just $50k makes no sense to me, even if you have systems and are on-site.
