    Great thread!  I am researching noise monitoring software, as I have had "guests gone wild" and police call outs for noise recently.  I also have heated pools, and don't have a pool automation service.  Still learning daily at BP!

    My own:

    Pricing: moved from Beyond Pricing to Pricelabs recently

    Locks: Nest and Schlage 

    Rankbreeze

    Cameras: Eufy

    HVAC Control: Nest

    Pools: salt water and Easy Temp heater...I need the automation part that I see above @Jeff E.

    Accounting: Stessa

     It's where I organize all of the information for my properties.

    For example, when I onboard a new property, I have an entire checklist I go through as a way to gather info.  You could technically do the same on google docs, but I just think it's easier to use notion for my team and me.

      Would you mind sharing how you're using Notion? I am closing on my first investment at the end of this month and I just came onto the forums to see if/how others are using Notion - any tips/advice would be greatly appreciated!

    Hey Brian!  Congrats on your 1st investment property, super exciting!!!!!

    I use Notion as my organization system - meaning all of the information about the property is organized in Notion and it makes it super easy for me and my VA's to access the information.

    For your 1st property, you can easily just use Google Docs though!  Once you scale and bring on a VA, then it may make more sense to switch to something like Notion.

    Is Tech Stack the new Deep Dive?

  • Member since 2026 · 4 posts · 0 votes

    Fun thread, here's mine:

    PMS: Hospitable
    Pricing: PriceLabs
    Locks: Schlage
    Cleaning coordination: Turno
    Accounting: RentalRiches (full disclosure, I'm the one who built it, mostly because I got tired of Wave and QuickBooks not knowing what a per-property STR payout even was)

    The accounting piece was honestly the last thing I fixed and the one that saved me the most time. Everything else on this list touches guests or the property day to day, but the bookkeeping side is the one that quietly eats a whole weekend every quarter if you're piecing it together from Airbnb and VRBO payout reports by hand. Curious if anyone else here has found a good middle ground between a spreadsheet and full QuickBooks for multi platform STR income.
