Every now and then if they live in another country or they are older with no electronics, no property, no internet it can be a bit more difficult. 

You will also have access to LegalZoom's Compliance Calendar, keeping you informed of annual report and business income tax deadlines throughout the year.Registered agent services from LegalZoom also include electronic storage of your documents and mail, providing replacement copies if needed.

If it appraises at say 150k but needs 50k in work to clean and modernize it, will it then only appraise at 200k after the work? 

Provide more modern amenities . . . larger communal kitchen, we/work style coworking space, laundry on site, pickleball courts, gym, etc, etc.

If the software is not simplifying your life or making you more accurate, you shouldn't use it.Software does have extremely helpful features like online payments, marketing syndication (click a button and your property is advertised on multiple sites), electronic document review/signing, maintenance tracking, and owner reports.

To me it looks like they are getting a lot for their money.The big modern looking place with over 300 units looks pretty.I've seen one of these in Austin, the renters tend to be on foot, and places like Jack in the box seem to be a popular destination.Seems like a good time for Bail Bondsman, pawn shops, check cashing outfits, and liquor stores to start snapping up places across the street.This is going to define that area for a long time--cradle to grave--and it will need service industries.They should put in a park with kids toys and picnic tables right next door (and no bushes which are mugging and rape hideouts), because people will have somewhere to go outside vs (Loitering) on the streets, and in front of businesses.Maybe the city will be smart and build a Welfare Office right next to the place, so the people do not have to take a bus (all daylong) across town to handle their business.Bundle the services they need right up close, within walking distance vs spread out all over town.Just my 2 cents.

Does anyone know if there's a way to refuse/decline payment from an electronic source?

I have some midcentury modern pieces in my own house that came from one of the estate homes I bought that look fantastic and are made incredibly well despite being "inexpensive" for their day.

I would not choose a specific decoration to differentiate as I rather opt for modern, simple decoration that fits everybody.

@Allan C.I would counter the point on building doesn’t appreciateYes land appreciates but In my neighborhood I bought my lot in 2013 for 500k, today a lot is $600k and new homes in 2013 were 1.2M and the same home today is 1.8mGoods also increase in value and yes they need to be replaced over time but the current depreciation time is also very low as materials (non electronics) last significantly longer period of time.
