Then another $1500 for his electronic key access and setting up various other systems to make it convenient for him.

@John Cantey If you accept rent electronically just make sure it is through a software or app that does not allow the tenant to reverse payment for whatever reason. 

Between Skype, video property tours and electronic documentation, taking advantage of the technology available can completely change how you invest.

As far as St Paul goes, you cross the river on 46th and you're in Highland where the home prices and rents are similar to the Minneapolis side.

Can applications be filled out electronically?

If the software is not simplifying your life or making you more accurate, you shouldn't use it.Software does have extremely helpful features like online payments, marketing syndication (click a button and your property is advertised on multiple sites), electronic document review/signing, maintenance tracking, and owner reports.

We have electronic dropoff and special disposal for mattresses here.  

All platforms that provide for electronic payments of rent (ACH/eCheck) are going to have this same issue, it's no different then taking a personal check that bounces.
