There is a distinct advantage of having local management, though with technology it's possible to manage from a distance yourself.

I noticed that they kept making more and more of a mess over time, and I have caught them lying to me about multiple things over the past 2 years. 

No lie!

We are now back to sending messages to Verizon prospects with some technology we've added.

So without my knowledge, I bought a turnkey property with a tenant that wasn't paying (never paid), I had to evict them (pay for the eviction), I had to pay for the turnover cost which was thousands of dollars, and I've been lied to by at least the property manager that came with property within 2 months of signing on the property (August).So I got everything fixed, the PM wanted to get the property rent ready.

The sheer number of units amplifies the inconvenience, turning what should be a technological boon into an ongoing headache.While the locks offer attractive features like keyless entry and remote access, the pervasive battery issues overshadow any potential benefits.

It took many years before I realized I was lying to myself.

We're not a Quicken Clone, loan advisors are experts in all manner of programs, "blending technology with a handshake".Quick highlights - 1-4 unit, business statement loans, down to 660 up to 90% CLTV and more.

They want stellar performance on: 1) listing, 2) screening, 3) leasing, 4) inspections, 5) maintenance, 6) lease enforcement, 7) communication, 8) liability mitigation, 9) tenant management, 10) market trends, 11) technology, 12) move-in / move-out process, 13) handling/disposing of tenant property, 14) resolving disputes, 15) vendor relationship and management, etc. 

I was watching it and I was seriously thinking, about how dishonest that was.It is literally making sales (or trying to) by confusing your audience and lying to them to manipulate a sale.Starting next week I'm selling a course that teaches you how to NOT make money.
