I personally am a big believer in QB as it is very user friendly.

You should also have a good users list before you start doing that.  

Hi, do you know a great software, friendly user, easy and ACCURATE for real estate investing.I don't know if you are like me, but Quickbooks is a real nightmare... 

It's a family business that self manages and does all their own rehab work and does full rehabs to keep ongoing maintenance to a minimum and allows them to command top rents.

You can also google search calculators and find some decent ones if you run out of uses for the BP calcs as a free BP membership user!

General RE: know all of the terms, how real estate cycles work, financials (this is a MUST), what your end user wants [whether that's a homeowner, a tenant, a rehabber, etc.], Local RE: You need to know your local real estate market and you can learn that by reading the local newspapers (both general and business) and one of the best ways to learn what I found to learn what's going on locally is by following newspapers, journalists and towns on Twitter, also head to your local town hall and speak to the P&Z dept., EcoDev and other dept's to see what's going on in the town's you want to invest. 

You get the assignment fee, the owner gets his money and the end user gets the building.Good luck.Charles

Very user-friendly.

I wish AirBNB was as user friendly as VRBO.I don't go into AirBNB as often because it isn't as intuitive and maybe thats one reason why I'm not as comfortable using it since I get frustrated when I try and find items that are buried.I get most of my bookings and I get higher per night prices on VRBO.

Can I use real estate agency CAR forms and just not check the broker/agent boxes... ?
