The thing is, our mortgage is at about 2.8%, and I don't have to tell you how much higher it would be if we refinanced to get the mortgage in her name alone.

@Jay LindgrenRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

I'm also looking for another CRM thats built better "out of the box" or need minor tweeking.

We are pursuing a house hack (fixer upper) and turning the basement into an ADU which we rent on Airbnb.I had a theory that Airbnbs that performed needed to be walking distance to a metro.

The deal still worked at the increased price, but I learned that I need to increase my contingency on deals of this type.

They have pretty much always paid below market rates, have never had to worry about moving, up until this renewal, lease renegotiations have been quick and easy, all done between the Partnership and company directly, no professionals, no commissions.  

If you need a real estate guide I would be thrilled to help. 

I also know I would need to get a partial mortgage from current lender to build on the property.

what it sounds like you are asking is illegal in many ways, section 8 laws, local laws, duel contract laws that conflict, there always has been also those out there looking to catch you breaking them,  avoid it, dont offer it, dont entertain it, there is leeway up if the tenant meets certain conditions, say need 1 floor rental, if not rent may be inflated over realistic market, which is what rented at not listed at, keeping in mind sec 8 market rents also include utilities paid, you can usually reach by email fastest, they have set chart, heat type, neighborhood etc, more than listings found online

I'm wondering if I'm missing anything: Mortgage (20% down, so no PMI) HOA Electricity Gas (None, as the new construction house has an electric stove—everything is electric) Water Bill Camera Security System Internet Lawn Care Regular MaintenanceQuestions: Will I need to pay for trash?
