Flips on the other hand are essentially project management.

@Heather Martinez, there's a number of different ones on this link, under "Tools" > "Fileplaces":- https://www.biggerpockets.com/files/category/contr...

The best book on personal finance is "Making the Most of Your Money Now" by Quinn.It's like an encyclopedia of financial tools with great advice included.  

Folks,It is possible to build a Passivhaus compliant home (energy consumption <=15kWh/m^2 per annum) using off the shelf materials with a marginal increase in construction costs (~10-15% ... less as the workforce becomes more skilled).Primary heating and cooling of such a home can be accomplished via the ERV/HRV system with a small auxiliary heating source (there's a house here that has a 1500w auxiliary coil to provide additional heat to the fresh air supply during the coldest part of winter ... that's essentially replacing your furnace with a hair dryer).Even a near-Passivhaus construction (or retrofit) can lower energy costs 70% or more in comparison to the conventional (or even R2000) house being built in Canada these days.  

just curious to know which tools are mostly wholesalers using to automate their business? 

I watched videos by real estate mentor Jay Morrison & used Dave Ramsey's "7 Baby Steps" method to get in the mindset of using money as a tool, not being used by it.

So I've been studying the state of the art, best tools & practices in Property Management, especially curious about Work Network development and proactive, preventive maintenance.What I've been surprised to discover is that the best PM platforms are full-blown accounting systems, designed to replace the likes of QuickBooks which has been so popular for so long.The thing I'm wondering is, if real estate investors are well diversified, they're probably doing a lot more than just investing in real estate.  

BP also has analysis calculator tool.

I have a lot of home remodeling experience and quite a bit of tools and trade hookups if anyone is interested in any type of partnerships. also have NC real estate license. if any one wants to call, even just to shoot the bull and bounce ideas off of each other please reach out. 

(kitchen cabinets, appliances & tools) This was all planned for and there should have been plenty left over to cover unexpected costs.
