If someone had enough time to set up a meth lab in your rental property or devise an organized drug ring in one of your units, you suck as a property manager!

She is calling my job, bashing me all over social media, etc.

Feel free to inquire about their staff qualifications if it's a larger organization.2.

We set up our infrastructure and are very organize and thorough, and through the year we made some significant progress and went on a learning phase to get better each day and closer to our first deal.As foreign investors we have to rely on hard money which gives a less edge, and face uncertainty with contractors not knowing real pricing and such.We are constantly on the look out for new investment opportunities.The problems we are facing right now is not knowing good contractors and the high competition on the MLS.We just started learning more about off market properties and sending direct mail.We would like to hear from your experience what should our next step be as newbie investors, and if there are some foreign investors here with tips.Thank you so much guys, best of luck to all! 

But we are not a massive organization with employees to spare.

I suspect the organizer is a Mexican RE agent that is looking to find some buyers. 

What sites/software does anyone recomentd to collect rent, anyone have like a template of an excell sheet I can use to get organized?

However, I do think if you can hold out for 1-3 years you might see rates drop a bit and insurance drop a bit, and I feel pretty confident we'll start seeing 3%+ organic rent growth per year in the next 2-4 years again.

To stay organized, open up new personal accounts that you only use for your REI activities.I'm a huge fan of Profit First as well.

Just Google a hurricane map over the past 100yrs and you will realize it hasn't increased just more sensationalized due to media.
