Record Keeping

From: Rixter ®


How do others keep all the paper records for the Ip's in their portfolio? Do you have a file for each Ip with different sections divided within the file? If so what are the various sections names you divide it up into?

At tax time do you lug all your files to the accountant or run off a printout of all your incomings/outgoings and present them instead?

Happy Investing,
Rixter :)

Hi Rixter

I keep both a lever arch file with all my information - one for each IP - and, a computerised accounting file which shows all the transactions.

I prefer to see clients bring in a summary of their expenses and income rather than a box of papers and I've heard most accountants feel the same way. No all though.

I recommend "Investment Tracker" software that the Freestylers sell for abt $99. It is excellent and should make your tax returns easier if you use it properly.

Good luck

Dale

Hi

I use Property Manager Pro - while it does have some limitations (is quite basic), it is easy to use and makes life easier.

I used to keep it all on paper but this makes it so much simpler to get hold of the info that you require quickly. It also has quite a few reports with it. Costs about $80

Hi

Like most things with investing, there is no "better" . . . the software is similar and will look and feel a little differently to each user. Each user, depending upon their expectations, background and expertise, will prefer one over the other.

I would suggest that you look at an evaluation copy of each and see which you prefer.

Have fun

Where can I get an evaluation copy of the freestylers program? I've searched their web site and could only find where to buy it.
