The PM company mentioned that the have recently started using buildium software to manage properties and as part of that for the first time they are requesting all of their investors to provide W9.

Property management, mortgage, property taxes, insurance (including increased liability coverage or umbrella coverage), Cable, phone, WiFi, Landscaping, Pool/Spa services, furniture (FFE), snow removal, operational software (digital door locks), supplies (toilet paper, coffee, etc.)...pretty much everything as if it was your own home and more.  

Make sure you thoroughly screen your applicants (i.e. credit, criminal, and eviction check as well as a google search of their name), take advantage of the free landlord software out there, and create strict rental criteria!

If you do not work full time, you can use software to manage your properties.   

@Cody Furman - With a bigger building, it would serve you well to pay for a management software like Appfolio, Buildium, or Rentec Eirect (my choice).

.)- Purchase of interest rate cap (if bridge loan) or Locking of interest rate (if long term financing)- Software costs (Webinar platform, investor portal, others)

In your experience, what software do you guys you that encompasses most of these?

Question for rental property owners using property management:Does your PM send you (or post to your management software etc) an invoice/receipt of work done/description of work done for repairs done by a specialty vendor?   

Anyone using Real Acquisitions software in here? 

The educational tools they have will be a great help to you and have you seen their new software called Investor's Edge yet?
