But it's not robust at all.

I use Excel and have set up a robust spreadsheet over time that is designed exactly how I want it and gives me the information that I need. 4. 

I know there is some good, robust software out there for big companies, but we need something that is cost effective for our new business.

Even in the tech world, resumes and educational background are a very poor measurement of ability to perform on the job.

Whether we pursue that course of action, or use this first multifamily deal and management experience to build a resume that allows us to move on to bigger deals, is something we’ll decide down the road.We listen to the BP podcasts every week, and read forum articles regularly, although I don't do much posting myself.

Seems like we have some items in common, I personally came from a science background and then got my Executive MBA, looking back on my higher education experience and now operating a fairly robust business in REI, I would have to encourage you to consider finance and/or strategy, if you have the opportunity to capture finance strategy in one, this will serve you well.

The downside is lower quality of tenant and a slightly less robust economy than SLC and south.

We do reach out to the borrower to see if they are able and willing to resume payments via a loan mod, but in most cases when they say "yes I do" they typically do not follow thru with completing financial statements and progressing thru the mod process, since it's much easier to stop responding.

Came down to Appfolio, Propertyware, and Buildium.Propertyware had horrendous reviews relating to customer service, and Appfolio was too expensive for our situation (geared toward larger management portfolios; whereas we only manage properties we own).I went with Buildium because:1) Pricing was reasonable2) Customer service is free (whereas some of the others require you too purchase units of time for use on the phone with customer service).3) They seem to be constantly expanding and improving their featuresHere's my experience after using it for a year:1) Pretty intuitive and easy to use2) Accounting features could be more robust.
