Found a realtor through a local (Houston TX) contact who helped her find a good tenant.

As much as I would think it would be overpriced, I would be willing to pay the same for a software that met all the metrics a RE investor would want in one single platform.My post isn't about how to make QBO cheaper, its about finding or creating a better system to track property performance, cashflow, debt, cap ex, and all the metrics we want to see along with our accountants. 

There's likely options out there for your refinance when you rehab it (minimum around 50-75k loan amounts).You can find private lenders online or you could possibly meet one at a meetup.

I could do all cash with perhaps some help from family (less than $15k) or friends/partners (one has asked me to find something he could join in on with $20k, the other serious one has about $35k-$50k to invest with me). 

@Agustin Silveyra have you looked into finding a house hacking agent yet to guide you?

Go see the average cost of a lot for sale in HEB if you can find one.
