I decided to try renting my primary residence as a trial to see how I like it and what kind of interest I would receive.

RIGHT TO A SPEEDY AND PUBLIC TRIAL: Government may jail Americans indefinitely without a trial.Illegal enemy combatants doe not have the right to a trial.

I just did a Free Trial on QuickBooks Online Plus (I believe it was Plus, the one that is the most expensive anyway. 

Finding the correct teacher, guru, course or book is all about trial and error!

If you look at PASSIVE single-family investing, i.e. pick a random, well-maintained property at fair market value (and yes, obviously there will be large regional variations - I'm talking averages), you're probably going to need at least a 40% down payment to just not have negative cash flow.

TIA Do the free trial and see.

I think I'll start with the trial and try it out.

I did get a chance to visit some of the neighborhoods and got much of the same vibe -- lots of variation from block to block.

For example, through a lot of trial and error, I discovered a post card that works very well on one of the lists I mail to.

Especially nice if you ever deal with partial rental months, reimbursing tenants for things, and the move-out process.I've never tried to use Buildium for more than the trial period - I'm expect it's really great if you don't mind paying for and relying on it.
