I've shifted my focus from weekend stays to targeting guests who need accommodations for 30+ days.

@Steve Cribb to be successful, landlords need to set boundaries.Many tenants, especially desperate ones, try to make their problems their landlord's problems.As a PMC, we try to be reasonable, as "life happens" and "tenants are tenants for a reason", meaning they don't plan well and live paycheck to paycheck.Part of our being reasonable though, involves deadlines and we AUTOMATICALLY start the eviction process so a tenant knows this. 

@James Carlson A Home Occupation Permit application with the city of Denver will automatically grant you a 3rd unrelated resident, but still not enough.

Perform the same task in each app to ensure a fair comparison.Load a property with pictures and details.Market that property.See what your marketing looks like from the public's perspective.Submit a fake application to see how easy the process is.Run a credit/screening report on yourself.Enter a maintenance request, assign a vendor, and attach a fake invoice.Enter charges to the tenant's ledger.Enter recurring charges and automatic late fees.Sign documents electronically.Run owner reports.After testing a few apps, one should clearly stand out.

The problem is that there constantly seems to be fees being charged to me an example of this is in the contract  there is an additional 100 dollars allocated to sewer and water that the tenant automatically pays every month with rent and anything outside of it should be billed to the customer (there is no specificed time when this will occur on the contract) but it appears to be billed to me and after speaking to IIP it's like they made up rule on the spot stating that after 6 months all of the additional utility fees would be billed to the customer and in the meantime I am being charged for it.

Realtors have access to a broad network and can help you get the best price in a shorter time frame, which is important in a market that can shift quickly.In the end, using a realtor can often pay off by helping you sell faster and at a higher price.

Your software hopefully includes some kind of "disposition worksheet" or something else with a similar name, and, once completed, it should create the required IRS forms automatically.

You should use software that automatically sends you rent payments.

The market has shifted w rents down slightly, but demand is still strong. 

I didn't state it automatically drops.
