It automatically generates monthly rental invoices, reoccurring bills like sewer bills, and has great reporting functions.Going even further I got set up on IPN (Intuit Payment Network) and now I email my rent invoices to my tenants and they can click a link, and pay me online, I then just click to receive the payment and everything is recorded instantly.There is a learning curve to some extent.

Once again, if this isn't clear people will be all over the map and the lack of focus could mean lost opportunities.Expect, demand, do not compromise on excellence, hard work, integrity, and loyalty.Be the boss - When you hire A-type people they will be used to leading and taking over but you always make sure that you give them power but let them know the final authority rest with you and you are the boss.Building a team is easy, building a great team is really hard.
