@Karran Gupta Electronic notary is now allowed in NY effective Feb 2023.

It is in our case, so we put an electronic lock on the upstairs door.

You: self-sufficient tenant, can handle minor tasks yourself, can be home to meet contractors, can find and schedule your own contractors, are happy to pay those contractors out of next month's rent, must be willing to do electronic rent payments.   

Got started in the electronics industry when I was 21 and never left. 

I use Dropbox for electronic storage which comes with a scanner in the phone app, so I can scan immediately on the go and then ditch the paper.

Once the rehab is done, I have all the receipts entered into quickbooks by my CPA's assistant and then I have an electronic means to see the profitablity of each project as each one is assigned a class in quickbooks.It has been suggested to me by others to also keep a log/talley of every expense by simply writing each item down in a log book so at any given time, I can see how much has been spent on each project.

I agree with @Mehran Kamari , with electronic communication, there is virtually no reason your accountant has to be in your location.

It is best to get the cash out of the hands of the manager and have a clear electronic record of who pays.

After that I slammed every nickel I could get my hands on toward paying of my mortgages, STARTING WITH THE LOWEST BALANCE, not necessarily the highest interest rate.I also did without things that a lot of people thought were absolutely NECESSARY; things like new cars, cable TV, the latest and greatest electronic thingies like big screens, walkmans, funny ringtones on my cell phone (I didn't have a cell phone until '95) and crap like that.

Place has an entirely open window, the bank’s electronic lock doesn’t do a whole lot when it’s wide open.
