After years with a good company that would take late calls we had to find someone else.

It hasn't been decided on whether or not my company will pull the trigger with them yet, but from what I gathered pricing will depend on what all you are looking to do as in the plan/subscription you choose.

I had my handyman do it for 15K and now rented at a higher rate....Another property in Florida, the tenant left such a mess in the house (gum in the carpet, drawing on the walls, etc), and the property management Company (I think their name is Watson) wanted to fully refund the tenant their security deposit! 

Sotherland Designs is a good company.

Too much risk and sets bad boundaries for tenants.Many use Venmo, Zelle or just have tenants deposit at their bank (local branch).There are also several free DIY PM softwares that have rent payment built in, but they charge the tenants a fee to do so (that's how the companies make money).

I am also 5 minutes away from the automotive company GM Headquarters and 5 minutes away from a major hospital.

Every company is different.

They should explain why they took a permit application from someone not authorized to submit one for that company.

If you have a major insurance claim or a fire or something, and your insurance company finds out you were renting out rooms or the whole house and you never told them, you and I both know that insurance company will do everything in their power not to pay. 11 - Fire Extinguisher.

The thing is with Raleigh specifically, is that much of our inflation is a natural outcome of strong growth:- Many Fortune 100 companies and 500 are establishing headquarters here- A significant influx of people moving into the area.
