My plan is to initially do property management myself just to learn it and understand the business better, so eventually I can hire/train someone to do it, and better understand what I'm looking for.Things I still need to do - find a good real estate lawyer for looking over purchase agreements/questions I have, finding good plumbers/electricians/contractors for the work I will need to hire, decide what sort of management software I might want to use to make things easier, learn a TON about basic everyday fixes to units.Also... hey @Ethan Hamilton, what's up buddy??

Also, what software, if any ,are you using?

You can uninstall, delete, reboot your computer, reinstall software, etc. etc.

Mike, Yes there are books and software but often much more expensive and sophisticated than you need.

What about running the audio through some inexpensive dictation software such as Dragon, then hiring a VA at $10-$20/episode (as discussed in 4 Hour Work Week) to piece together any missed translations?

Pictures of locks, type of locks, antivirus software???

In addition, I will be showing off my software application which has allowed me and others to make more offers and get more deals while becoming even more productive and not burning out the agents!

@Nate Green Yes its software that only agents have access to.

Hi All,I would GREATLY appreciate any and all concise,knowledgable advice about these 3 softwares.I'm a beginning investor very much interested in wholesaling as the start,leading up to flipping then buy & hold investing.I've been researching all 3 but I've been running into conflicting opinions so I've posted here with like-minded individuals for the truth so to speak.I realize that Proptrend is rather pricey($2,000)for my business right now but I would appreciate an honest opinion about that software as well as advice about Propstream & REIBlackbook which was reviewed on this site & the reviewer states that she uses REIb.Everyone & anyone,I am trying to start my business off in the right direction by using the tools & advice supplied to me on this site(advice from the 7 ways to automate your business article has been implemented already)so any advice that I can use & run with to help my business achieve the success that I believe it can,I would be forever thankful for...!
