I am an accountant that quit her career in tax software programming once first child was born (since no family here); now have 4 children.

I am a software engineer by undergrad degree and trade and i've got a JD hanging on my wall that I don't use for much more than experiments in how temperature variations effect dust collection rates. 

What I did was build some software that scraped a few sites for section 8 apartments then I want to find the owner info so I can send them offer letters.  

We spent 2015 trying property management software (CRM's).

Cost segregation is very important at every stage.As J Beard mention - use QuickBooks - learn to budget and forecast by property right in one software.

George - I was actually checking out your profile and website earlier today after catching one of your posts on accounting software.  

Great software.

I think it would be beneficial to have both personal finances and business finances tracked in the same platform, but I am not so sure that this is common, or even what software is capable of this.I currently use Mint for personal finances and I do not think it has the ability to track business financials.How do you folks handle this?

With the separate agreement, you need only the agreement and the schedule.Invest in an inspections app, until you are large enough to need full property management software.

My estimates are produced on professional software, not the back of the bar napkin.
