Perform the same task in each app to ensure a fair comparison.Load a property with pictures and details.Market that property.See what your marketing looks like from the public's perspective.Submit a fake application to see how easy the process is.Run a credit/screening report on yourself.Enter a maintenance request, assign a vendor, and attach a fake invoice.Enter charges to the tenant's ledger.Enter recurring charges and automatic late fees.Sign documents electronically.Run owner reports.After testing a few apps, one should clearly stand out.

I would also recommend making sure the current owner is in good standing with the association and that all dues are current, otherwise that could become your liability post-closing.All in all, if everything checks out and the numbers work for you, condo/townhomes can be a less daunting way to break into RE investing, especially in a high-priced market like NJ.
