If organizations are smart -- they'll evaluate key roles and determine where this person needs to be objectively, and then let the candidate of choice decide, a perk that they could offer over other organizations.

There are many software companies out there but I use Smart Property Systems. 

@Wendy Huang, I won't repeat the very smart commentary your post has already elicited.

With a SMART thermostat, you could probably arrange to have control of the thermostats by your own cell phone, for both the a/c and the heat. 

There's clearly a theme here with the realtors who have addressed the part of your question regarding using multiple agents , but I wanted to share a bit about how I found my agent and why he was such a good fit for my first and future investment purchases.I'd kicked around the idea of buying rental property for a couple years, occasionally considering it as something smart to do.After dabbling in the stock market for about six months with some unexpected success, I started obsessing about getting my first property.

I was only able to take a quick glance but from what I can tell that looks very similar to other property management software like Smart BnB or Guesty...have you found any advantages with AirGMS over the others?

You want to be smart on who you let live with you.

Due the smart pricing and great timing (spring!)

I was thinking it might be a smart idea to live frugally for the next 5-8 years and save as much money as i can and purchase properties in cash.

If your were a smart investor you would pay off all bad debt before you ever consider investing.
