I use Mac with Gmail & Google Drive mostly.Background on my specific task -- need to organize email content from various Google or Yahoo investor groups (Yahoo forwards to Gmail).

The growth in the area seems to expand on a daily basis!

Most people who teach school have families, just like any other job, so it's hardly an unsurmountable task.

A property manager will do that.That being said, there are some folks that find that property management software saves them enough time on other tasks (like collecting rent or signing leases) that they don't mind spending time doing those physical, in person activities it cannot handle, but ultimately it's up to you.

I’m curious to see if there was one key strategy that really helped your growth as an investor.

I recently became the director of sales at my company and have been tasked with finding investors to help raise capital for my company to scale at a much faster rate.

An important part of your task will be to try to figure out which bank department and individual you need to talk to.If the owner has vacated the property, I think your chances of finding him and convincing him to cooperate will be slim. 

Also, when you are new, figuring out the paperwork is no easy task as you really don't know squat at that point.

The goal being continued growth and additional properties, I am lost as to how I can add additional capital into my LLC as well as may myself when necessary.

If your criteria is 3X = 1300 * 3 = $3,900 gross they would not qualify.Having done both South East 'cash flow' and Socal appreciation/long term growth rentals, I'll say that high COLA rent areas criteria tend more towards the 2.5X where lower cost cash flow areas tend more towards 3.0X.
