There are a lot of high character folks who get sucked into garbage Co-GP style guru programs.

You can program individual access codes to work only during a certain time frame.

Always ask tenants to check to make sure it is locked.Another disadvantage is that you have to change the batteries regularly.Another disadvantage is you have to spend quite some time programming the locks and tracking the code3.

They batch the deposits together and you have to go deep into the program to determine which tenant made the payment, that was deposited into your account.

@Avani PatelFor my flipping business, I prefer to use fewer software programs to streamline things.

While they mostly aren't lying, they leave out a lot of reality.Why would a government funded program like S8 pay MORE than market rents?

This is required for most landlords in the city, as part of the rental property registration program.

I would probably take the risk at $500, but $1k feels more of a ripoff like most guru programs.

Wasn't for me.I'm not affiliated with the company, although their founder @Brandon Hall is a colleague and a friend of mine. 

I agree that working with people is easier and more cost effective than the alternative.As I read this, I'm considering creating a Cash For Keys written program that I can give my tenants at lease signing to remind them to come to me rather than just stop paying.
