    Hello,

    Having tried Property Pro, I am somewhat disappointed. I am not convinced there isn’t better products available for managing property.

    If you manage your own property or a small rent roll, please tell me how you do it. Did you buy a software package to help you? or did you just start from scratch and build your own system over time?

    I have done some more in depth investigation into Rentmaster.info and have found it isn’t property management software after all. It is in fact software for small party and event rental businesses. Companies that maintain a inventory of party or event equipment that can be rented out.

    and Property Pro (http://www.manac.com.au/cgi-bin/products.cgi?sku=75331) also looks interesting.

    On the bank account issue, with 1 account, how can I see which tenant is up to date with their rent? Is this something the above software can do? or is it easier to calculate that manually?

    Thanks,

    Damien

    I was aware that rent rolls could be bought/sold, but I hadn't considered that. Perhaps that is an option, thanks for suggesting it.

    If I were to move in that direction, I'd like to have an understanding of how other people manage their properties? Is there a system or process that others use or does each person make up their own system?

    Is it fair to say that most people who manage their own properties use a paper based system of some sort?
