But my client had something different:Clarity.Using our Address Income analysis, we ran 3 separate cash-flow scenarios based on their exact financing terms for each property.3 clear rental and expense projections w/ clear rental data.

Just double-check if that solar payment is actually in your PITI or separate - seen that flip deals completely.

We'll try out petscreening.com as a first line of defense, and keep a separate ESA policy. 

I found that it's best for tracking the big-picture stuff like property offboarding, claims, and owner comms, while leaving the tiny details to a dedicated PMS.Are you trying to build a 'master board' for all properties, or separate ones for each?

It is about authority and fiduciary duty.There are three separate relationships here:You and the tenantYou and the property managerThe PM and the tenant (only to the extent the PM is acting as your agent)Start with the core principle:The security deposit belongs to the tenant, but it is held in trust for you, the owner, to cover amounts owed under the lease.Your PM is your fiduciary.

He has separate AI agents for each mobile home and RV park.
