As to your numerical goal, you can certainly exceed that (and ultimately by a large margin).Most would-be real estate investors get distracted along the way but have lots of smart phone apps.

I can tell you more about Cincinnati/Northern Ky market if you would like to hop on the phone and talk about it!

Further, for a $300 - $400 investment you’d get a complete course on a particular investing methodology and the “mentor” who sold you his books and tapes would take your phone call personally and answer any questions you had.  

I manage with simple notes, spread sheet, even just making tags in my phones SMS to search back and find that person every 30 days.   

It is user friendly and the reason we love using it is that you can do all management from an app on your phone if needed.

I have a tenant who is not paying rent, reject my phone calls and not responding to texts.  

I use a google voice number for advertising/marketing properties and first name only for advertising on the internet but my full name is on my lease and i give all of my tenants my personal cell phone number.

These transactions don't included additional expenses the business incurs like meals, travel, dues, subscriptions, marketing, accounting, licenses, phone, internet, etc.
