It is a very robust online marketing tool that allows you to build and segregate list, provide automate email replies, sell products, etc.Unless you are planning on building a big database of potential customers that you want to communicate with routinely and convince them to buy something from you.... it is probably gross overkill for a real estate investor.There are other FREE programs such as Constant Contact which are better suited to a real estate investors needs.Best of luck!

Every property I own has overkill liability insurance.  

Overkill, structure for financial planning and use insurance.You may have issues with real estate brokerage requirements having a real estate management company (requires a license) as your other entities are not you, they are seperate legal entities just as other people.I suggest you look into a Series LLC in Texas, have multiple members and use insurance. :)
