Quote from @Will Greenlee: I would agree with @Drew Sygit every software has its kinks and this one along with all the other ones started somewhere.. 7-8 years ago Buildium was less effective than it is today, and now it is a lot better.

Hi @Gil Canfu definitely there are many places in DFW where you can invest in a good rental property.I am not sure where you are at, but if self managed you should start in cities with good proximity to where you live.All the corridor between Princeton to Saginaw has good deals but there are many others things to consider as I mentioned previously.

I want to start investing in real estate in America in the near future, since I am not in America, I live in Europe, more precisely in Serbia, any advice and contact will mean a lot to me.

For 2025 I will be taking a leave from my fulltime W2 work start 1st July for rest of the year.
