starting bids are usually way over ARV, but you have to monitor it sometimes you can find something interesting.

But managing/monitoring a lot of them isn't that much fun in the long run.

Don't get me wrong, there are some great VAs out there, but you have to find them, train them, monitor them and pay them well for them to produce anything above mediocre results. 

Examples include BuildZoom and Zonda (formerly Hanley Wood).Property Records and Permits: Monitor building permits and property records.

I do have to agree with @Chris Seveney that this forum topic is one of the lower trafficked forums, which may make the split not as effective, and instead of breaking them up into their own individual topics it may be more appropriate to dissolve the topic entirely and keep the discussions for Tax Liens and Mortgage Notes under the Real Estate Private Lending Forum.I will leave the topics alone for now, monitor the activity over the next few weeks to see if there is an increased demand in these topics, and keep you informed if there is an update to the topic(s)!

Pay them $180 an hour and monitor like a mom, and both the owner and contractor will learn.

Has anyone found a good solution to remotely monitor water consumption? 

For those who struggle with setting goals and them monitoring them I would recommend a system like EOS (there are many others).

That's a great way to monitor the property remotely.

The most impactful part, they monitor our STR's 24/7.
