Play hard to get if you do not have all these leads come in.Fake it till you make it is a real thing.My advice is to spend your time automating lead generation and less time fighting to make one deal happen.

I would also like to automate rent payments without paying an outrageous fee to do so.

Based on their website, it seems automated, has bookkeeping, and a good savings rate as well.

Didn't keep them as I had found my own PM management software to automate my tasks and operations.

Mainly, the systems implemented are fascinating (VA, automated offers, etc.)

The scenario I described above is meant to do some digging (not an exhaustive or major time consuming process) to locate all the owners of the apartments in our target market and then automate a contact campaign to see if we can stimulate an off market deal (emails, cards, letters, phone calls) and to create more of a working network within that target market.  

I think it is all automated based on some metric they use.

I don't know if they do this at the bank you will be refinancing with but are they doing an independent appraisal or an automated computer value appraisal (something my bank does as an alternative)?

I'm crazy and developing systems and processes that automate the business.At the end of the day real estate offers options that other investment vehicles just can't match.

I am currently at about 30 to 35 units and so the information on automation is really helpful.Before I forget thank you for your service.
