I've never heard of a property manager that charges more than 10%... When you add 1st month's rent plus 10%, the first year is higher than 10%, but that's about it.
If you are not able to hire a property manager, pay them 10% on all rents collected, and make a profit, then I don't recommend holding that property as a rental.
What's the difference of using this service versus sending all my paperwork to a bookkeeper who uses Quickbooks, or a property management software like Buildium or Appfolio?
If by rent-seeking, you mean: using resources to obtain an economic gain from others without reciprocating any benefits back to society through wealth creation.
Then real estate is not "rent-seeking".
Real estate owners take the burden of home ownership off the shoulders of renters. Renteres choose to rent because they have an economic incentive to do so. Instead of a buying a home cash, or putting down a deposit, a renter can use that money for investing in other activities, spending on themselves or their family, or save. Of course, there are many renters who cannot afford a down payment at all. For them, the landlord is playing an even more important role by letting them rent in areas where purchasing would be impossible.
I do agree that most tax incentives for investing should be abolished. But I disagree that real estate is less productive than other types of investing.
Hard work is the coolest thing in the world, and money shows that you are capable of actually accomplishing things. Another great thing about money is that you can put it towards nearly infinite good uses.
Have you thought about letting photographers advertise their services? If some of your customers are amateur, or just need nice cameras for a party, they might be willing to pay for the services of a photographer.
Yes and maybe. Yes, just like there was a bubble when it broke $200 in April 2013 and it came back down. Maybe, just like there was a bubble when it broke $200 in April 2013, came back down and continued rising beyond the $200 point.
Beautiful landing page.
When I click "sign up for free" the "begin selling now" text was on the bottom third of my screen, should be in the middle or at the top.
You are probably getting such a low CTR because you are mixing Search and Display. First step is always to separate Search and Display.

Always A/B test, continuously. Never stop testing new ads until it is blatantly obvious that one ad-copy is superior.
*Make sure that your keywords can be found in your ad-copy. If your keyword does not appear in the ad-copy, you WILL have lower CTR. I guarantee it!
Whatsapp works faster for me than gmail on my android. I can insert images, audio, group chat, mute notifications per group, smilies, share my location, snap and send a photo.
also, not everyone wants to mix their SMS and email.
Home listings.
I always want to use Redfin's results, but no matter how many times I type in an address and select Redfin, Trulia and Zillow out rank Redfin over and over again. I'm forced to search the address + redfin to get my result. I figured Google would have fixed this for me.
