Modern Day Landlording on Auto-pilot?
I have recently read Landlording on Auto-pilot by Mike Butler. A good book for tips on systems, etc. However, some of the book is a little outdated. I'm trying to decide whether to begin property managing on my own or continue to use a property manager. A few questions:
1) How are self managing landlords handling tenants calls during off peak hours (nights, weekends, vacations)? I don't think pagers are used a whole lot nowadays as mentioned in the book.
2) There are several post about setting up your own property management LLC. Any links to posts or resources on how to do this effectively?
3) Computer based property management software looks good but how much of the tenant base has computers? What if they don't have computers are landlords leaving it up to them to figure it out if they need to file a work order?
Thanks for the help!
