I have always done some notes and then scanned in receipts and other documents (now I scan everything - so all records are electronic).If you want to get fancy with an iPad / smart phone app, Happy Co is some awesome inspection software that would could do some amazing documentation with (both safety and condition report inspections).Hope this helps.

Everyday there are new apps, and sites coming out.

Wow, so much to read, podcasts are awesome, I'm using the app now.

I talked with one tonight - we went over commission, office fee and start up fees.Doesn't seem to unreasonable - small monthly office fee, lots of training - (looks like I could have some sort of training every day of the week), mentoring, decent split (less your first year, but can quickly get to 100% if you are producing).Office fee included Central Showing System, E/O, advertising (something about protecting the agents leads online, little fuzzy on that), phone forwarding, email, copies, mobile app, website - not sure what else. 

For example, have my potential tenant pay application fee, I do my due diligence and determine the app is okay so far and then request the tenant go online to my back ground/credit check, eviction check provider were the applicant can pay for that there, and then make my decision?

@Iden Nazario There's an app called "Meet Up".

Its not something most folks just try to do on their own. but if this is a small project and you want to learn it seems like its small money.. buy the dirt for 60k and go talk with a land planner and civil engineer.. get pre app meetings with whatever government agency in the jurisdiction controls land division.. it can be a good learning experience for you.. and being this is such a small amount of money it could be good practice and one to get started on.. don't do it though if you can't afford to lose the money.I usually lose between 30 to 50k a year doing preliminary work on subdivisions that I end up not buying because you just don't know all the facts until you spend some money trying to engineer them and go through the process.

any preferred apps for iphones and apple products?

is there a good App to use?

Tools that I use for keeping organized are pretty analogue (Folders, checklist, etc.) paired with couple of apps that I find very helpful such as Excel, DropBox (which I store all my work files onto) and OneNote.
