i'm looking to automate my direct mail better. 

It is not more profitable, it is only that the owners do not understand the dynamic pricing and automation and  being listed on all the booking websites and a good property management system.

@Timothy Doyle no data to share, but I think the people who will value/use smart home automation the most are the ones who will want to tinker with/build their own system.

Automation for rent collection, fees & maintenance.

It's much more red tape with the bigger companies to weed through.As for land requirements recently Mcdonald's and other restaurants have been automating restaurants with touch screens etc. and they have been wanting to reduce physical space in the stores.

If you live in a petro economy, NDE/T, process operation and instrumentation are good careers.

Also, how can I make it as automated as possible?  

They're millions of combinations so this is why it's really important that you stop trying to figure this out yourself and get a strong loan officer or broker to run the numbers through Fannie or Freddie's automated underwriter systems.I hope this helps and have a good one all.

Good idea, get your insurance agent scratching his head about you.Let's make twice the work for our bookkeepers and accountants dealing with two instruments instead of one.

Its the best thing to keep in touch with people, develop leads, and to tell people thanks.It has a back office CRM that allows you to automate campaigns (great for wholesaling) and send chocolates and/or gift cards along with nice cards to people you would like to thank.sendoutcards.com/why-sendoutcards/
