Looking for an organized and efficient property management company for our portfolio of rental properties

Just hired a virtual assistant who specializes in bookkeeping last month to keep the books organized and ready for tax filing. 

Fixing up house to be eco-friendly (filtration system, infrared sauna, organic bedding etc.)

I'm very familiar with REI and have attended seminars ran by some of Houston's bigger investors such as 713REIA (I personally know and have done work with Ray Sasser who is one of the organizers for the Houston 713REIA) .

I think @Joe Villeneuve makes a great point to organize an LLC.

I set one up for an organization I worked with, and when I had a question about the account, I was able to get a human at Paypal to help me resolve it. 

DH and I want more time to travel, volunteer, aid organizations and ministries we love, and we want to have a cash flow that also allows us to give...we love generosity and making a difference. 

Some things we've dealt with are negotiating with sellers and lenders on price and rates, staying organized and having all the appropriate documents, dealing with contractors and making sure you have a system in place so that you don't get screwed, managing timelines, set backs, and people in general...the list goes on, but it's very exciting and I can't wait to do more and keep educating myself in this industry!
