I'd recommend Appfolio since you're managing more than 50 doors (their minimum criteria). 100% of the PMs I've worked with for my own rentals have used Appfolio, and it's always produced great owner reports.For overall bookkeeping/accounting needs, I always recommend QuickBooks Online since my bookkeeping firm uses it exclusively for our clients who are all REIs.But, for a PM company for the trust accounting, I usually recommend Appfolio.Hope that helps!

Quote from @Lakita Woodson: Quote from @Michael Smythe: LLC's are overkill for most investors.Best for LLC Partnerships, where members want protection from the actions of each other. 

Despite these concerns, I’m determined to take action and start making deals as soon as possible.

.$400/mo cash flow is great — but it would take over 12 years to equal $60k.And with more cash, you can buy better rentals that produce more cash flow later.

@Shawn AckermanHey Shawn, love your no-nonsense approach, totally agree that action beats overthinking when it comes to OOS investing.

So everything we tried was filtered through that lens.When it came to Facebook ads, we found they produced plenty of volume but very little real intent.

Read books, watch videos, attend local meetups, comment in the forums, and ultimately...take action!

It takes awhile to find people with whom you have an affinity and to soak up actionable ideas.  

Start with one property, test your PM with a small task, and schedule a 30‑minute weekly review to track rents, expenses, and next actions.
