They probably have it setup to automatically transfer instead of shutoff to protect you when the tenant doesn't pay the bill.

@Troy Smith If this is your first BRRRR deal I'd meet the appraiser, shake hands, and provide a paperwork describing all the renovations you completed.

I was asked to join a couple of real estate groups and this one fell in to my hands.

If they don't pay within the required timeframe, then I auction off the storage unit and wash my hands of it.

I've done corporate relo a handful of times.

Starting sooner rather than later allows you to benefit from long-term appreciation, build equity, and gain hands-on experience, even with a smaller property.

Of course, that is only if your intent is to hold it long term.If your goal is to unburden yourself from managing the property yourself, you do have options that offer degrees of hands free management. 

STRs can bring great returns but are higher risk and more hands-on, like small-cap stocks, while long-term rentals are stable and predictable, like large-cap investments.

Maintenance, We had a pool so I know first hand, you really need daily work on a pool. 

I already have a hand shake deal on the next property, another duplex, that I will buy come summer time.
