New landlord so learning, I would like to know the best way to set up my email account system for more than 2 properties.
Does everyone have just one dedicated email account (gmail/outlook) where all property related emails goes to?
or do you have an individual email accounts for each individual property within your rental portfolio?
I find it easier to have one email address, but I have folders for each property, so that all correspondence goes into the relevant folder. I also insist on having the property address in the subject line of the email! All this works very well for me without having to log into different email accounts.
thanks for the response Anne1, out of curiosity do you just use a free gmail/outlook email account or do you pay for a business account?
My normal every-day personal email account - not a business account. I don’t like having to log in here, there and everywhere.
many thanks for the feedback. I think ill go down that route also
I set up a dedicated Gmail account to be used only for letting, including when finding tenants, dealing with building management etc.
Then I set it up to forward copies of incoming mail to my & wifes usual email which we’re likely to see daily.
I set up a free gmail account for all my rental emails. This is also the email I use to make any online purchases for the properties & the email which i use to contact the tenants.
I do the same as Anne1 and put everything into separate folders
I do exactly the same as the others. No need for multiple accounts or a business account.
