I'm curious if anyone has a good system they are using to Schedule people, track time and send to a payroll company.  Right now I'm using "When I Work" to schedule a maintenance guy, and then we send that data to Paychex for payroll.  There has to be something better...

I use data for many different things.  I guess when I spoke about inventory I was thinking of... a home I'm going to list For Sale.  We're listing it in a couple weeks.  I look at what else is for sale similar to the home being listed and see there's not much inventory and that tells me I can push the list price up more based on the current inventory available.  

When we list units for rent... I look at available rentals on CL and Zillow.... I look at available Quantity, Quality and Price.  This tells us how hard we can push rental prices.  How much we can raise rents.

Speaking as a realtor.  Almost every seller I've dealt with that wants lower, lower, lower commission... that seller has almost always been more difficult to deal with.

Get it in escrow, get the appraisal and cross the bridge when the time comes.  Seller will be warmer knowing its in escrow and the sale is going down the assembly-line.
