It handles all my maintenance tickets, communication with tenants, rental payments, screening, receipt tracking, listing etc (I haven’t used the listing service yet but they offer it for free).

I trained John Jackson in lease options in 2002.

We use RocketStation for VA's and they train them on Appfolio if they haven't used it before, but many VA's have.

Without an exact numbers breakdown of each option (which should obviously be my next step), I think my ideal situation would be to sell the SF and roll the equity into this, leaving me with a modest holding cost that I can absorb with my stable W2, and keeping the HELOC for any larger ticket items I need during rehab.

I was going to buy three tickets to the cashflowkings event but you sold out in ten hours.

These are professionals with additional training and a stricter code of ethics.

I know, I know, the bank didn't TOLD you it was a Fannie/Freddie guideline...and that's how front line Loan Officers are trained to respond. 

Did you purchase the training?
