Many people think that once they buy a Section 8 property they will automatically collect their rent and will never have to repair anything. 

I am not saying it’s an automatic red flag if the company does not provide in-house property management, but it does add an additional step to the due diligence process.

It should never be about speed.

I agree that she should take the automatic options.

I track all my property docs in the app and it generates rent roll and all the financial reports automatically which help me a lot to manage my property. 

If investors on the deal are putting down $$ expecting equity doesn't that automatically cut me out since I don't have that kind of money to put down? 

Whether they're PM's, leasing agents or inspectors.For those who believe 'time is money' and you should automatically hire a PM either never waste a second of their life (kudos), over-value themselves or simply don't want to manage. 

I have been fortunate to find a great rental in the Hot market of Orlando off of the MLS but I had a realtor that had set up some automatic searches.

If so, and you're only going to be purchasing one property at a time, that restriction is really going to hurt your speed of growth.

The app will send them reminders and also automatically charge late fees.
