.- You close on December 10th- The property is in great shape and does not need any significant repairs- It only needs some paint touch-up and changing a couple of broken fixtures, which you do yourself- You spend the next week buying furniture, electronics and supplies and installing/arranging everything yourself- You also roll up your sleeves and scrub the toilets and sinks and appliances- You put it on AirBnB/VRBO and have your first guest renting it for the 3 days of Christmas- You second guest rents it for the following weekend and leaves before NYE- You personally clean and restock the place between these two guestsCongrats!

This guy will buy $2,00 rims for the car, then be late on the rent, Go an a golf trip to Singapore, then he is late with the rent.Maybe we should both look at electronic rent collection that allows for a visa payment?

I'm thinking less electronic components if at all possible. 

Pro: There is no other electronic cash system in which your account isn't owned by someone else.

Go to Etsy and search for "rental property tracker," and you will find hundreds of nice spreadsheets to track 10-20 rentals, usually for under $10.Software has 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.

Never use wiring instructions sent electronically or from a phone number you are not familiar with and can't verify. 

The major damage was to 35 computer stations and various other electronic equipment, as well as buildouts, furnishings, etc.

All of that is proven with the spreadsheet and payments you made electronically. 5.

Similar issues happen with VRBO and Airbnb electronic payments:(

Imagine me asking my attorney for $35K worth of free court appearance /advise or a real estate agent to forgo the 6% fees on selling of a home or demanding my property manager give me 20 years of free property management or going to Best Buy every week and coming out with a cart full of electronics good without paying, etc.
