However, I've quickly realized this rat race that I'm in to trade hours for dollars which is not how I want to live the rest of my life.

I am not sure whether the company services your area, but there is a company called Regal Kitchens in NY that has sponsored some BiggerPockets meetups.

Contractors liens are mainly for subs who don't have a written contractor for services directly with the owner.

Thanks for the advice to read, @Mark Nolan and @Ayodeji Kuponiyi — today I read about half of the BP Ultimate Beginner's Guide and hoping to get through the rest tomorrow.

Anyone know how to call Bigger Pockets Customer Service?

After all, are we landlords really the benevolent people you describe as "providing housing," as if we consciously prioritize the service over the profit?

But, I can't find an actual customer service person.  

So more than looking for any specific service I'm wondering what self-managers are doing to automate services related to their properties.

I have a cousin who lives in Lincoln Park...and I am becoming more and more interested in creative financing options such as the service you provide for my first investment (initially thought I'd definitely go conventional with strong credit score and ample savings).Please connect and stay in touch!

Is there a low-cost service out there that the tenants can go to and print their own report so that they don't keep getting charged by multiple landlords when they are applying for several places?
