This works OK for relatively static and simple investments like a private placement or crowdfund, but can become rather cumbersome and expensive with a more time sensitive and transaction intensive asset such as a rental property.

The big thing that sold me on the vinyl planks is that it is installed with pressure sensitive adhesive which means that if a tenant drops something heavy on a spot or drags a dresser across the floor and scrapes it up, I can pull up those indicidual pieces and replace them with new ones without refinishing wood or replacing laminate.

Not a big deal to forward a PDF to a tenant but I'm not sure why it's not part of their system and it was annoying to have to sign up for their secure mail portal (but an understandable limitation since the PDF does contain non-sensitive PII) I use cozy.co for collecting rent so I just uploaded the PDF to the documents section of the lease which emails the tenant and keeps the docs in one place.
