I up date it about every 6 months.. my banker will do a little intro talk about our 2 decades of working together and what our general daily balances are .. then if they need specific its just a screen shot or copy of the most recent statement.  

I've avoided all that nonsense for 20+ years by acquiring excellent newer properties in the better middle and upper middle class neighborhoods and putting into place top shelf professional management that clearly understands that everyone's life is made much easier long term by screening for only the best tenants and treating them accordingly.A very simple solution, but one that takes a bit of discipline to actually follow.

Go to NETWORK at the top of your screen and you can search for other investors and investment groups in your area.

That's not a good idea because they will likely resent you for the increase, probably can't afford it, and you haven't screened them to know if they are good renters or not.

That said, you screen every tenant exactly the same way, if they quality, they qualify.

Load properties, market them, screen some fake applications, move the person in, accept rent, edit the ledger, enter/track maintenance, how does it handle tenant communication, run all the reports to see if they provide the information you want in a professional manner, etc.You'll narrow it down to a clear winner, then jump all in and use it.

Buy in the best neighborhood you can, know how to underwrite, and thoroughly screen great tenants and you will make money land lording!

Then it came to the part where I put a value on the broken down costs, and that is where I got stuck again.

Called my city told them the meter is broken and they responded with a you take to many showers......

You need to know LL tenant law, screening techniques, fair housing laws and on and on.
