I'm trying to understand how they collect data so as to develop the best comping practices.

I like that it’s an all-in-one platform for tenant applications, rent collection, and maintenance requests, which helps keep everything organized.

For example, if you don't specify if a certain item is reoccurring or 1 time, you can't collect it.

This may be because (1) until recently interest rates were trending lower so if the lender is getting a higher rate on subject note than he can obtain on new note there’s no monetary incentive to call the note (2) in the past technology did not exist to identify the property transfers (ten years ago county recording docs were not online) and (3) the lenders rather collect payments than own property.  

So, everyone using those platforms is jumping on the same leads AND at the same time which means there  users are all equally behind anyone WHO GOES TO THE RELEVANT COUNTY AND COLLECTS IT there own data or can find someone who can get it for them.

By house hacking, you're immediately positioned as a landlord, which will adequately pressure you to learn how to structure your leases, screen applications, collect rental payments, resolve the nuances of managing tenants and addressing property issues, etc.

(I actually laughed when I first learned this.)10% property management fee (With separate charges for new leases, repair management, and rent collection—what exactly does this cover?)

I should look at the expenses vs the income (rent collected) and not the selling price of the property.
