Landlord seeks computer program to keep all the details together

[Matthew Marchetti]

I am a newer landlord with 7 income producing single family homes that I fully manage. I do this by combining my knowledge of Quicken, Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Word. I work a full time job in addition to my property management and I need to tighten up my management.

Could anyone suggest some software that could help me do all the things a landlord does (inspections, receipts, finances) but keeping it  in one, tidy place? I've done some homework but really need someone to talk to who has actually used these programs I'm reading about.  I estimate that I will max out at 15 properties when all is said and done.

Thank you,

Matt

No excel sheets - unless you keep on checking the formulas for accuracy. You spend more time.

Start with QuickBooks, as you will know your numbers - equity and financials.
