Organizing property paperwork
Hello! I’m trying to help my husband organize his 5 properties so we have a system when we buy/sell. I’m thinking about organizing by property and having all the paperwork in that folder but what folder titles should I have within each property? Any other tips on organizing paperwork to be successful in the future. Thank you in advance

In our property folders, I retain:
1) Title Insurance / Deed
2) Lease / Estoppels
3) Repair invoices / Rehab contracts
4) Payoff letters / Current note
5) Insurance declaration pages / Property Tax Cards
6) Photos of property
I'm never prepared for an internal audit, but the above is my goal.
