I came across a question for our Rookie Reply podcast episode asking about property management software.

Yes, having tenants pay ACH via a Tenant Portal software is best, but not all will cooperate and some will play games that result in NSF charges.We allow tenants to deposit cash/check/money order directly at our bank into our account.Many Class C & D tenants have challenges adapting to unfamiliar ways to pay and is often not worth the hassle (and possible evictions) to get them to change:(

Going forward it would be good to specify that your property management software is the only acceptable method of payment in your lease (if not done so already).It might also be a good idea to check the pre-existing lease to see if they have any clause like that (sounds like you already did that).

@Tamika Davis One of the biggest advantages of most software on the market is to complete these tasks you mention (maintenance, leases, rent collection, etc). 

I compared other properties in terms of age, sq ft, acres, beds, baths, basement, garage and a subjective measure of interior condition.I have a huge problem with the automated comps (Zillow, RPR, etc) because they could not account for the interior condition. 

How do you share your accounting from the software to your Accountant? 

.- Technology & Automation: Utilizing project management software, such as Buildertrend or Monday.com, enables real-time tracking of budgets, schedules, and contractor communications.

Quote from @Pat Mulligan: Quote from @John Underwood: Nothing that paying for a 3rd party app to automate functions will fix.What apps do you use?

Do anyone have any  experience of automated tools like CRM integration, Automated lead generation and mass outreach, customer management and appointment booking etc.
