Currently, I bike and take the bus to work to save on expenses from owning a car, I meal-prep once a week and eat out only occasionally to save on food costs, and I strategize my regular spending to receive the maximum cashback.Looking forward to interacting with this community and learning more about making smart investment choice.

It sounds like you have a paying tenant where you occasionally make a little extra on with a late fee.

Set an expectation that no one leaves their dishes in the sink.

Commissions have always been negotiable here, and we’ve been seeing 2% fees offered to buyers agents occasionally for a few years already.

I would occasionally get emails from them and it was difficult to get a response back when I’d reply, so I just decided to move on.  

I clean all shared areas of the home, cook occasional meals for guests, lawncare, maintenance, and shop for them (consistently provide milk, bread, basics etc)?

I am located in Jax Florida and use my realtor license for personal deals and occasionally help others. 

Our property was in Michigan and had sub-freezing and occasionally sub-zero temperatures, so 60 degrees is a nice spring day.FWIW, wind chill is how cold it feels to a human.  

What I found out:From the perspective of a real estate agent who needs to track expenses, a small-time landlord with 2 self-managed units, a house hacker, a landlord with 4 units under professional management, and an investor who analyzes deals, plus a guy who occasionally is lucky enough to have a little cash to put aside and wants the best return possible while it sits in the bank, is there one tool that will rule them all?

He mentioned his girlfriend would be staying with him occasionally before submitting the application, but she would not be in the lease.
