Then either take a picture of receipts and save them in a folder, or print them and keep in a separate file. i personally wouldn't invest much into quickbooks or a third party- it's very easy and cheap in excel. 

The best thing to do is keep your print runs low, try a few different designs and see what works best for you.

might i be so bold to offer an opinion while being such a newcomer here ...but its kind of funny how you can read "not to touch a hot stove" 100 times and still burn yourself.I think the majority of "experience" is gained from "doing" and not "thinking" .... unfortunately, experience is typically "bought" from making mistakes.At the same time, I'm not saying to rush into anything (in life) blindly.

If you get the property at a very good deal you will have to have different disclosures to cover yourself.You would need to disclose you are an agent and also it would be a good idea to have them sign a print out of the comps so there is no question that you have taken advantage of anyone.Lastly, if you are an agent then you need to hang your license with another broker and work under them. ie Prudential, RE/MAX, Coldwell Banker etc.If you have a Brokers license you can be on your own.I hope that helps with your questions.

:lol: I want to share a short story...Back when I was in college I worked as a "consultant" to a small pharmaceutical printing company (they print labels for pharma containers).

Just printing the envelopes and letters on my home printer like I did last time.

Do you bring in printed listings for recently sold comps?

I could print checks from my home with any account number on them I wanted.

Not sure if it made a difference but I gave my realtor a bunch of printed comps to hand to the appraiser because I was not able to be there. 

(internet, social media, newspaper, print, business cards, networking, etc etc etc...).
