After a series of phone calls and emails, Veterans in Parking subsequently offered me a seat on their board of directors; which I accepted. 

Have you ever had your credit pulled for a mortgage application and within a few hours your phone is blowing up with calls and text with random mortgage companies reaching out?

They don't even bother taking phone calls any more from their clients. 

Hi Jose.My properties are currently with PM's, but all of our properties are D class so I might be able to provide some insight.With D class, a lot of people don't have credit or even bank accounts, and anything on-line that they can't easily do on their phone isn't going to work. 

Their only other bills are their mobile phone and car insurance, and with the rest of the money they save on rent, they can spend it on other priorities, whether it’s expensive toys, travel or paying down debt.

Though the tenant did report the app was difficult to use, especially from a phone.

I created BrightInvestor and would be happy to chat about how we go beyond just market research but also help you find the properties well - with free owner phone numbers and sales comps. 

Cell phone service is still pretty bad.

I have 3 performing STR's in Central Florida and spend less than 3 hours week managing them.Now if you were to be an underwater welder with zero access to your phone for several hours a day, the solution is simple, you hire a manager!

They're seldom home during the day and on weekends.The upstairs tenant texted me yesterday (I do have a separate phone line for our properties) saying she's having noise issues with the downstairs tenants: banging the screen door closed after she's gone to sleep on weeknights (11:00pm), talking on the phone at 1:30am, up and about at 2:30am on the weekend.
