I don't use really personal cards for anything anymore.

I personally invest here for both the cash flow and appreciation.

Just spoke to a property owner we met here on BP.Very nice person who's been DIY managing their double-digit doors after being burned by bad PMCs in the past.Wanted weekly in-depth updates, all rents deposited in their bank account - and then they would pay the PMC their fee, and expected the PMC to use their PM software.Pretty much looking for a go'fer person, NOT a PMC.We wished them good luck.
