Currently I use one credit card and dedicate it ONLY for the real estate business.

We currently use PriceLabs for STR dynamic pricing and spreadsheets for LTR tracking.If one system can manage both STR + LTR (leases, rent collection, maintenance tracking, reporting), that’s ideal — but we’re open to an STR-first PMS and keeping LTRs in a dedicated LTR tool if the “all-in-one” compromises the STR workflow.

Guiding my clients with dedicated follow-through every step of the way, my goal is to not only build portfolios and pockets but to enhance our knowledge as well!

I release a video per week on youtube dedicate to house hacking NJ, link is in my bio.

Michael,I've actually considered doing it myself for tax purposes but, I'm also considering paying someone at least until my day job is more predictable as far as the time I must dedicate outside of normal business hours to be successful.It might be a good compromise to do the managing myself but, finding a cleaning crew to assist with turnover. 

I need to take more advantage of travel points.Not sure if a dedicated airline cc or one like an Amex is a better solution?

It's funny, my other listings at the EXACT same address were able to have this addressed...I can't believe they don't have dedicated customer service agents.

- Where is your dedication?

We use a dedicated business number (Google Voice or similar).

Those are not surprises, they’re inevitable.Because of that, we line up access to capital in advance, even if we don’t draw on it immediately.That usually looks like:A dedicated capital reserve account per property or per portfolio bucketPre-approved lines of credit or lending relationships already in placeClear internal thresholds for when cash vs leverage is usedYou don’t want to be negotiating financing while a roof is actively failing.2.
