.: I'm curious how CA agents can make a living with laws like AB2992 that state:"If the out-of-pocket costs to pay their agent remain too great and the seller and buyer have not yet reached an agreement on the sales price and/or terms, the buyer may walk away from the subject property provided there is an exit clause, proceed without representation, or approach the seller's agent about possible dual agency representation."

@Ben Trageser Stessa is an excellent platform for tracking investors' income and expenses; it is user-friendly.

That's not to say all of them, there are definitely a lot of professional and successful residential GCs (take a look at some of the guys commenting above, their track records are impressive).

Digitize physical receipts for easy storage and use a consistent naming convention for easy sorting - 2024.03.25 Home Depot.Maintain proper records, such as contracts, settlement statements, and promissory notes.Additionally, you can track income and expenses consistently using software or spreadsheets.As you scale, if bookkeeping isn't fun, consider hiring a bookkeeper for a couple hundred bucks per month.
