To optimize profits and reduce risks, maintain organization, track the status of projects, and quickly resolve any problems that arise.Recall that investing in real estate calls for endurance, patience, and ongoing education.

Easier, cleaner, cheaper to take the loss fast/write it down and move on than have employees continuously tracking the file.

I beleive there's plenty of opportunties on the MLS, but they are usually categorized incorrectly i.e. a property possessing favorable zoning listed under the single family category, public records incorrectly listed the square footage, or instances where  BRIGHT MLS doesn't track zoning changes real time with recently introduced zoning bills.

The reason I haven’t purchased anything yet is because I’m a new real estate agent and I’m focused on building my business as an agent for the time being as well as saving up money for a down payment while I’m building enough of a track record to show the banks that my income is steady enough to be approved for a loan since I won’t have any w-2 income.

I have a track record of why it went down with dealing with two broken legs over the last two years with a few surgeries in between and can show proof of all my surgeries etc.

I'm a RE Agent and Investor in central Houston (one of our houses is up in Spring) and I use Hemlane.com to track and manage payments, maintenance requests, ect. 

Its becoming easier finally with solid 12 month or more track record on all the units. 

One thing I'm struck by is no DST company so far has been able to provide their track record.

Quote from @Chris Seveney: @Jay Hinrichs100% agreeWhat we did was had a third-party company perform a track record verification report.

Any recommendations for how best to handle that in terms of tracking?
