Best rental management software for 10 units or is it a waste?

[Shane Jeanfreau]

I've Been reviewing all of the rental management software bigger pockets has advertised and trying to choose one. I only have 10 units at this point so is it even worth my time?

I think you need a good book keeping system, and a tickler system for keeping track of leases expiring, etc.  Quickbooks does this, you just have to be creative in the ways you set your system up.  For example,  the calendar can be set up as a tickler system, so your "to-dos" pop up when due.  My tenants are set up as customers, and I use the notes features to record tenant interactions, late notices, served, etc.  You don't even have to update QB every year.  I am currently running fine on QB Pro 2013.

$45 bucks a month sounds expensive to me, but I am notoriously cheap.
