I use BofA for my Carpet Cleaning business just because they have merchant services so I can run cards and have it next day in my account.

Disclaimer: I work for a rent payment service.

Whether through representation, wholesaling or investing, I will work hard to provide the service needed and help all parties profit.  

I'd recommend determining your true return on your existing house, including $1,700 rent, less vacancy, management fees (should include whether you self-manage or not), taxes (will increase in SC more than your calculation), insurance as a rental, maintenance and cap ex (often ignored or under-estimated).  

The funny thing is at least half the properties are not "passive" but stress filled with lots of activity (frequent maintenance costs, turnover, vacancy, eviction, cap ex)   Decisions have to be made sometimes with little time or little oversight when doing it so far away.    

I am not sure whether the company services your area, but there is a company called Regal Kitchens in NY that has sponsored some BiggerPockets meetups.

Contractors liens are mainly for subs who don't have a written contractor for services directly with the owner.

Anyone know how to call Bigger Pockets Customer Service?

After all, are we landlords really the benevolent people you describe as "providing housing," as if we consciously prioritize the service over the profit?

But, I can't find an actual customer service person.
