If you're looking to connect with local property management for your LTR or just to have someone local in that space in your phone, I'd love to connect with you.

With the rise of AI, we have a huge advantage over the competition.And not so much with the USE of AI, but in not using it.Handwritten letters are doing better than AI phone calls.In person appointments at the house have a higher closing ratiothan closing over the phone.There's many investors I know all over the country that are going back backto the basics of knowing belly button to belly button will be the mostpowerful tool we have in negotiating a deal, and really building a relationship.We won't close every seller we meet, but think of how many more can be closedbecause we set the appointment, met the seller in person, and built truststronger than anyone else.Same with content.

My follow-up is whether direct communications with tenants, vendors, or attorneys (via email, phone, or meetings) would be considered eligible hours.

It’s built for independent landlords and smaller portfolios, but it scales well if you add more units over time.A few features that stand out for portfolio management:Dashboard view – Track rent collection, leases, expenses, and cash flow across all your properties at once.Tenant tools – Screening, leases, and rent payments all in one place.Banking integration – You can connect your existing accounts or use Baselane’s banking to keep rental income and expenses organized (helps a lot with bookkeeping and reporting).Mobile-friendly – Even though there’s no dedicated app, the platform is cloud-based and works smoothly on your phone browser, so you can manage things on the go.It’s a nice balance between property management software and financial tracking, so you always have the full picture of your portfolio. 

You would've done better picking up the phone yourself or hiring someone to hit the dialer.

You won’t have to chase me down—I pick up the phone, return messages, and make myself available.

We dropped to my initial suggested price and phone rang off the hook and we got it leased to what I hope will be a great long term tenant.   

Willing to chat more over the phone or Zoom if you’re interested. 

It only took a couple minute phone call with the insurance company and she sent me quotes with multiple deductible options. 

It teaches you how to prospect, how to talk to sellers on the phone and in person, how to sell/provide value, and how to negotiate.
