When you walk through a property to estimate rehab costs, what online tools or apps do you use?

If none of the tools out there fit your needs, what features would your ideal app have?

I use an app called Handyman Calculator it has a list of calculators you can use to help figure things out like Carpet Calculator, Deck Calculator, Drywall Calculator, Insulation Calculator, Laminate Flooring Calculator, Paint Calculator, Roof Calculator, Siding Calculator, Spray Foam Calculator, Stairs Calculator, Tile calculator, Wall Framing Calculator, Wall paper Calculator, \

Then I use Home Depot for pricing. As far as the trades go I would talk to a builder and get Square Foot Labor costs averages for the local tradesmen.
