@Maggie BaeslerDo you have the meetup app?

Cash app, Zelle, and PayPal.

If you want to know how much you paid Joe's Plumber's service to work on just 3 of the 8 properties in april and may of 2020, you can run that report in minutes. try doing that with excel (and im an excel nerd at heart). profit and loss statements, balance sheets, expense tracking by vendor, income from a particular tenant - these are all reports i easily run (and are automatically updated) on a frequent basis. as far as receipts, i have been using espensify to track receipts, and input everything into quickbooks (i have the desktop version). however, after consulting with other BP members, i am swapping to QB online this year, and i believe it has its own expense tracking app that seamlessly integrates. i use quickbooks payments to collect rent. it gives you the option to accept either EBT or credit cards from tenants, and you can turn one or the other off (i dont allow credit card payments). for EBT, its about $0.50 per transaction. for rent once a month, this fee is worth the convenience. there are other systems such as cozi that do this as well, i just chose QB. i also flip houses, and i use quickbooks for that as well. however, i do have a few spreadsheets i use for major rehabs as well, mainly to assist with project management. you could probably accomplish that in quickbooks as well, im just not that advanced. 

Drive for dollars using apps like deal machine (which I just started doing here in Napa) and you can find some deals for sure.

I use Samsung Smartthings coupled with some Rboy apps which isn't perfect but no monthly cost.

I know the basics of these apps and how to use them to find my addresses and information about the house.

One lady processing tenant apps told me they had 4500 applicants for round 2 (Sept) and the cares website says they got 7500 applications for round 3 in November.

I have just discovered that this tenant filled out false financially significant information on the rental app. and has subsequently twice given me false information. 

I researched and found Cozy, Zillow and other apps like CashApp, PayPal.

When a traditional bank runs my app through automatic underwriting, the app gets denied due to disputed accounts on my credit report.
