Smart property management systems leverage IoT (Internet of Things) devices for real-time monitoring and management of property conditions, from energy usage to security systems.

Interacting with tenants took a lot of my emotion energy and I was not the worlds best screener.As far as repairs go, you’ll  have those whether you self manage or whether you are use a PM so that’s beside the point.

We've had to install bullet proof glass, leaded drywall, have a purchase contract actually read into the Congressional Record.

Out of state is also an option if you have the time and energy to build a team to support you. 

Or should I just bite the bullet and pay a company to quickly install new carpet for now? 

The systems they have can't be detected, cut or turned off, unless the perpetrators use bullets.  

Not remaining anoynmous or worried about the laundry list of things most novice investors focus their time and energy on that adds zero value.

So they say “call this 1-800 number to get a refund,” which also doesn’t work….F%#* I finally bit the bullet and got a $30 portable air compressor, great for my frequent long road-trips.

thank you all for the feedback. feeling the energy and warmth.

Unfortunately, you will have to bite the bullet and deal with current interest rates should you decide to finance.
