So many population/job growth/companies moving and developing here - Intel headquarters, Google, FB, Amazon, Nationwide, Honda, Anduril etc.

Once you go under contract, (here in Texas) fine a title company that works fast that you can trust, even before the contract is assigned know if they work with wholesalers and how they can help you.

It comes down to how each county handles property tax valuation.To put it in generic terms - a title company & lender will base your initial mortgage payment on the property taxes of the previous owner.  

Late payments, property damage, and evictions are avoidable when you have a PM who knows how to find reliable renters.I encourage you to seek out a property management company that emphasizes tenant screening and uses modern tools for verification.

Over time, you may want to hire a property management company as tenants can be headaches at times. 

If you ever decide you want a more passive approach, there are turnkey companies out there that handle everything for you.

I know this is an old thread.I'd like to get a more recent opinion of these apps.I think the DFD options is very interesting.What we want to do is endorse one of these for our Real Estate Club in Greenville, SC and have a contest for our members to see who can find the most deals with the software.Maybe try and get a rep from the company we choose to come and speak at one of our in person meeting and also negotiate a longer trial window if possible for our members.

It may sound nice to pay a 6% management fee but the extra fees can add up to be more than the other company that charges 10% with no additional fees.

This is what my company does for our clients..

I will be furnishing one side for now and leasing to a mid term rental until i get a property management company that will work the property or get it leased out to students What was the outcome?
