@David LewisRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

I am not privy to their financial situation.

We've found it's more capable than others when it comes to integrations, reporting capabilities, and efficiencies.The software you've mentioned will be better for the PM activities (property-specific transactions) than keeping up with your financials as a whole. 

But this one doesn't return investor phone calls or request for financials.

My point above is how solid are your financial and management plans?  

I’m just getting started and looking to soak up as much knowledge as possible—whether it’s about finding good deals, managing renovations, or understanding the financial side of things. 

Great tools that get updated regularly.I am on the lending side of things and would be happy to hop on a call with you anytime to discuss financial strategies and help answer any questions you may have about nearly any loan product available to help you on your journey, even if they are not products my capital partners offer.We are all here to help you learn and grow.

Many experienced mentors in this group can help guide you in the right direction.I highly recommend saving as much as possible and setting aside a hedge fund for financial security.

Once you have a financial base then invest. 

Besides the financial liability, I would not want the mental trauma and anxiety of knowing a kid had died in my pool.
