I used avail for listings (and copied to other sites) and manage my rentals through apartments.com, so I did the application through there and collect rents through there. Use Stessa to track expenses and hello sign for getting electronic signatures on rent docs. That’s my whole stack at the moment.

Op I have and am using Zillow rental - it’s very easy and has a good background , credit score check . Pretty straight forward tool

Facebook marketplace, though I would maybe consider a property manager. Have them market lease and collect rents for you.

For tenantcloud, are there any other hidden fees or add on fees aside from the monthly fee? For example, have access to integrate background checks but you have to pay for it on top of the monthly service?

Thanks everyone for their responses! Super helpful!

Our district is so lax on the students this year. With tech issues and distance learning days, we’ve gone from accommodating to enabling real quick. No penalties for late work, taking excuses for attendance, lower academic and behavioral standards... We were beginning to make so much progress on transforming our school culture, but this year is erasing that and then some. Is anyone else concerned about how to raise the expectations and students’ self-discipline back to pre-enabling levels?

Is this legal?
After being mugged and having my things (including my keys) stolen, I was locked out of my townhome after business hours on a weekend. I was told on the phone when dialing my complex’s after hours number (which is managed by a 3rd party company) that my complex’s policy would let me in for a cost of $100 (as it was after hours). After I was let in, property manager informed me the charge was $200. Is there anything I can do here? This is in Minnesota. Help appreciated!!

Under contract to buy my first home - house hacking a triplex. Property has been leased by the same three tenants for the last 5+ yrs, rents haven’t been raised since they moved in. Market rents have risen 70-100% in the same timeframe. All seem like ideal tenants (retired and take great care of the units) but I’d like advice on how to approach the rent increase conversation. Rents don’t make/break my mortgage payment but I’m leaving a lot on the table if I don’t increase significantly.
