With the rise of AI, more companies are adopting automated systems to handle maintenance requests.What system do they have in place to practice preventative maintenance?

We have picked up flips half done where the investor ran out of money due to unexpected issues, permit delays and carrying costs . . . and they swear they are done with real estate. 

Always factor in soft costs like permits, design fees, and contingencies of 10–20%.

I’ll be putting down $100K, financing $80K per year directly with the owner for two years, then moving into permanent commercial financing.Vision: My plan is to grow revenue to $200K+ by expanding the pontoon fleet, opening a small camp store, and adding some guest experience upgrades (fire pit area, lawn games, cabin amenities).Why I’m posting:I’d love to connect with others who have purchased or are operating resorts, campgrounds, marinas, or short-term rental portfolios.I’m looking for insights on financing, automation tools (property management software, keyless entry, etc.), and off-season revenue ideas.I also want to learn how others balance lifestyle, family, and operations in a seasonal business.This is a big leap for our family, and I’m grateful for the chance to learn from this community.

They offer automated reminders, recurring payments, and tracking tools that make bookkeeping much smoother. 

All the time you put into managing contractors, buying materials, pulling permits, or supervising projects can be counted—so long as the property is placed in service before year-end.

This requires a permit.  

The platform also offers a variety of automation features, such as recurring transactions and bank feeds, which can save you time and effort in managing your books.Overall, I highly recommend QBO for real estate accounting.
