Early testing of this new system indicates that it’s a pain to get access to.

Simple does NOT mean "easy" or pain free. 

Dealing with warranty service is a pain in any situation but when you also have to deal with a tenant on top its even worse.

And the fact that it's a pain in the butt is what makes sifting through all that garbage so profitable. 

How much of a pain will it be to manage tenants?

At that time, i will have the knowledge and network to expand and build my portfolio at an increasing speed and then it will be part of my growing pains for my business.I will most likely have that CPA do my returns for the real estate and then have my Tax Accountant still do my Personal, helps with Checks and Balance and cost savings.Do you have cost segregation, or anything like that on any of your properties?  

Susan - I feel your pain!

I did a loan assumption that is currently a GIANT pain in the ***.

I missed a lot of flaws in that house and I had some painful years as a result.  

I also am planning to meet with my PM on Monday to discuss pain points and better expectations, I would love to hear what sort of expectations you set with property managers?
