You can also buy lists from companies like list source and there are some REI software companies that have a cash buyer search feature.Best way to find motivated sellers is to purchase lists and compile lists from city and county for 60-90-120 days late on mortgage, pre-foreclosure, delinquent taxes, water cutoff, code violation, probate, divorce, high equity, etc. and mail or cold call.Other methods are driving for dollars, door knocking, wholesalers, craigslist, Realtors, FSBO sites, expired listings, foreclosure sites, put out bandit signs, billboards, newspapers, other offline publications.You can use pay per click/adwords, facebook, Linkedin, Youtube, and other forms of online and social media.Bottom line is consistency.

Would be nice if there was, but there's nothing like that built into the lock software.

@Fred CannonIf you self-manage your own properties, you likely do things and pay for things that people who outsource the management don't do.These items are possibly traveling to your investment property to make repairs, collect rent, etc.You may also pay for tools to fix up small items.There may also be property management software that you may choose to have if you don't use a property management company.These are a list of expenses you may be able to deduct if you decide to self-manage.

You can also buy lists from companies like list source and subscribe to software that will show cash buyers

@Nathan BillerIf all you are concerned with is tax reporting, you can likely give the accountant the following items and he should have a good start to preparing your tax return as it relates to your real estate investments1) year to date activity report generated by property management company2) 1098 from mortgage company detailing mortgage interest, real estate taxes paid for the year3) Insurance receipt4) call with the accountant on any other expenses paid, travel to and from the property, home office, etcNow if you want to have a monthly record of how your property is doing, you should take the monthly statement your PM is giving you and summarize it with the out of pocket expenses you pay for in some accounting software of excel.

What are the reasons you use/moved to different management software?

Which REI software do yall use?

Again, you may run into transfer limits with some of those other apps which aren't necessarily designed for the purpose of rent collection but the right landlord software can make this seamless for you.

And how great that is. but a vacation rental dollar is not the same as a long-term tenant dollar. 3% credit card charge, software, insurance that can be two or three times more expensive and may be hard to get, the industry trend for listing sites to charge a commission to the owner such as booking.com at 15%, the fact that vacation rentals require self-employment tax, Linens and cleaners and maintenance people who have to keep it perfect, every possible kitchen appliance and coffee setups add toilet paper and soap and everything else, up to 30% to a property manager. so maybe if you're lucky a vacation rental dollar is 75% of a long-term tenant dollar.
