Subject: PC Software Advice Needed for Landlord 

I currently have 7 apartment units and will close on a building with 4 more in
a few weeks.  So far I have been keeping my records manually with the old 13
column green paper. I would like automate my records with a PC.   Does anyone
have any
suggestions for a software that works well for landlords?

Jackie,

What records are you keeping manually?  I have 9 units in 3 buildings and am
trying to buy more.  I use Quicken for everything & haven't noticed a need for
more.  I do have some brochures on Landlording software at home & can send you
the names if you like.  Also, check out the book 'Landlording' by Robinson.  It
is a very practical, large workbook format softcover.  In it he lists applicable
software, including some of his own that he sells.  Also, check out books by
John Reed.  He has a series of them and I think discussed software.  Other
suggestions:  post your question on the usenet at misc.invest.real-estate.  Go
to the Mass. Rental Housing Association's website at http://www.massrha.com/ .  
And join your local Landlords Association (we belong to 3).  You will get a lot
of help there.
