How should I manage maintenance requests?

Use property management software like AppFolio or Buildium that centralizes requests, tracks work orders, and communicates with tenants. Dual monitors help you manage the queue while responding to urgent issues.

Are smart locks worth the investment?

Yes, for units with frequent turnover. Smart locks eliminate key management, enable remote access for contractors, and provide entry logs. The time savings pay for themselves within months.
