@Alec Barnes one of the problems with communication is the different expectations.Agents and consumers all think PMCs should be available 24/7.NOT POSSIBLE for the relatively small monthly fees owners pay PMCs versus the thousands of dollars of commissions agents get per transaction.So, while agents may answer their phones 24/7, most PMCs do not.

I liked the quick multiple quoting process and the detailed question the app asked so you get some apples to apples pricing.I would caution that a few vendors "quote" an on-call visit that they will waive if they get the job so it may appear they only cost $50 or $90 for a $300 job.  

That is like comparing apples to oranges.

In the short term rental business there seems to be a wide range of different types of rentals that are apples to oranges, especially from a financial perspective.

You are comparing apples and oranges - i.e. sellers who place their home on the MLS without a traditional agent and those that never put their homes on the market but do a private deal.

If it did, I would go on linkedin and see what experience they had (for example that apple... company in TX had asset managers who were overseas VA's  - curious how many of those investors knew that and could have spotted a thirty second search would have created a red flag).5.

Sometimes appraisers, especially if they are not familiar with the specific neighborhoods, or, if they are from out of town, unknowingly compare apples to brussel sprouts.Anyone active in Fountain Square, Fletcher Place, Holy Cross, Bates Hendricks, Herron Morton or other hot neighborhoods experienced this?

Pick the right set of securities (like my friend who basiclaly just bought apple for the past 20 years) or the right real properties, you can make out like a bandit.Apples to apple comparisons are difficult. 

You need to compare apples to apples, or at least KNOW that you are comparing apples with grapefruits.
