Some yahoos like one of the dozen or so Yardi iterations, but I don't get those folks so I'll pretend it doesn't exist.There is a whole different class of PMSs like RentReady, TenantCloud, Hemlane, etc that CAN be used to do some or all the things you'd prefer, they just won't function AS well for as long as the pro-grade PMSs listed above.So, if this is a side hustle that you'll dabble in for a while and then hop onto the next shiny object that walks by, I'd go with the cheapest or best UX/UI you can find in the second group.IF this is a business that you intend to keep getting better at and pursue with excellence then I'd cut right to the pro-grade PMS and learn to use it masterfully.
