I have the bigger pockets forum app for my iPhone and it works on here as well so thanks.

I kept a verbal journal on the trip (through iphone voice dictation) so once I get through editing that, I'll try to post some of my most poignant real estate travel observations.Anyways, cheers. 

I’m using my iPhone if that matters. 

No ipod, ipad, iphone, or anything.

@J Scott Tomorrow is the 1-yr anniversary of this thread .... perhaps this buy-and-hold thing isn't your best game ;-)Hopefully you have a tenant early in the week.

My senior year kids were waiting outside of rental companies at 4 am for the "nice" apartments like they were iPhones!!

Hello RichardYou are on the right track hanging out here on BPYou will not find a better real estate investment forum then here01- Check out Amazon .com   Books section,,you can buy any real estate book under the sun used ,in print out of print for pennies on the dollar.If you dont have them yet ,get the 3 excellent books by John Schaub.02 When you can afford it get a smart phone,,it doesnt have to be an I Phone,,,,HTC makes a very nice Android style phone for the money.Make friends with a young techie geek and get a handle on the best phone company deal around,,,I word suggest T Moblie first.Gei an internet hook up on your smart then you can listen to the BP Podcasts via You Tube wherever you go ,,,even waiting for a haircut at the barbershop.Lastly find the best REI meeting in your area,,,,hint,,,it wont be the one where some snakeoil guy is selling courses for $1997.00 on a card table at the end of the meeting.Good REI's usually have folks that have a professional capacity in the real estate industry and anj area of expertise they talk about,,,,ie brokers appraisars,,,,,title reps etc.Believe or not I have found theres usually only one or 2 in any major metropolis that are worth while,,,,so it might take you some time to find oneHope this helps DD in L.A.

-Cruise the neighborhood using google maps street view (Although this will likely be outdated by 6+ months)-Connect iPhone to iPhone with any agent or somebody local by using FaceTime.

Using the BP app on my I-Phone and we don't always get along.

I use my iPhone, the AirBnB app, and the VRBO app and I do all my work from the can.
