If you're unwilling to charge a common fee, I wonder how you're going to handle a problematic tenant who is late on rent or responsible for paying the plumber to remove a kid's underwear from a clogged toilet.How will you conduct a credit/criminal screening without an electronic application?

You want an accountant who can help you strategize and who is responsive when you want to know the consequences of the financial decisions you are making throughout the year.Good luck.

This is a first for me, so I'm not sure whether there's a protocol or this isn't my responsibility.

After talking to support (who were actually quite responsive and helpful), they told me I had to publish the ad with only one photo first and then re-post the ad with additional photos later to force the first photo to be first.

Thank you for your response Jonathan.

It is 100% the buyer's / investor's responsibility to do Solid Due Diligence before purchase. 

It's more like any other long term holding strategy, with less out of pocket costs, quicker financing of the RE purchase and less responsibilities than a landlord has.

Also I feel that previous owner realtor inspector and HoA the ones should held responsible for this.

And yes, you are still responsible for wiring earnest money to the closing attorney/title company when you put the property under contract.

But you are putting your other tenants in danger by not managing YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES.
