OfflineThe super-successful real estate investor is one who thoroughly understands their market. They will constantly be gathering information like local news, economic factors, zoning ordinance changes, and a ton of information and photos of individual homes for sale or recently sold. They will also be taking photos and doing research on vacant homes to see if they may present an opportunity.
This research is being done at their desk, in their car, at the courthouse, and inside homes all around town. Reports from real estate agents are flowing in with sold prices and new listing information. Information about rental properties, what they are renting for and their features and amenities will help to buy the right properties and set realistic and profitable rents. We can go on and on, but you’re getting the idea. There is a huge amount of information to gather, and once you have it you need to be able to find what you want to know easily. Do you fill a room with file cabinets?
Actually, you just get a free Evernote.com account. You get a generous allowance for storage space, and Evernote will run on your desktop, smart phone, and tablet computer and keeps them synced. It provides a number of ways to get your data into the folders you create online. You can drag and drop on the desktop, use apps on the smart phone, take photos from the app, and copy out of your computer files. You can also text and email into the account.
For $45/year you get more upload space and other features like recognizing text inside PDF files and even inside photos. So, when you take a photo of a For Sale or For Rent sign, it will recognize the text in the sign like it’s a business card so you can search and find it later. It will also convert your voice notes to text. Information is currency, so get a good wallet.

Want off market sellers to call you? I think writing letters to vacant home owners is a great marketing avenue. I have vacant homes in every state! With the owners address! I want to partner with other wholesellers. If you are interested, please PM me! -- This is how I got my first deal, and I will give you leads and help you build your/our team! if you don't have them already.
I think evernote is a very good resource to have, anything that will help make our
lives more simple is very helpful. So I will be downloading that for sure.
I use evernote for everything. It really is a great resource.

Evernote is a great application and along the same lines I have found Microsoft OneNote to be very helpful as well. You can create different workbooks and easily share the links to these workbooks with your team/buyer/seller. I use it on my iPad to take notes and easily insert photos.
Good Luck out there!
