I have been fortunate enough to work with some awesome REIs across the country who have outgrown "out-of-the-box" CRM offerings for a multitude of reasons...

I found a great property from fannie mae and got it under contract for 38K.The selling realtor is frustrating at best to deal with.We are at the inspection part and I guess I am responsible for turning on utilities and making any repairs necessary to close as it is an “as is” property.Not a huge deal right now, and will know more, and expenses, when I go this weekend.Throughout all this, over the course of about 6 months I have looked at as many properties that I could.I have made offers like crazy, and have had a multitude of deals fall through.I say probably for the best, and has been a great learning experience.I have tried owner financing deals, half owner financing half conventional, commercial apartment buildings.Pretty much anything that seems like it would be a good deal I have gone after.I have wrote letters, contacted absentee owners, tracked down properties in distress, MLS listings and pretty much anything else besides sending out cold letters.In summery I have a property I live in that I cannot touch the equity in until the oil contamination is cleaned up, a lot of failed attempts to purchase more property, and a house under contract that I may, probably have to, put some money in in order to close.I have felt more uncomfortable doing real estate than anything else and I love it.It has been great!

I use them for a multitude of reasons such as website, recollections, proof of performance history, presentations for acquiring new private funders, and more.
