Extensive CRE finance experience but new at management. What are my software options?
My professional background: I've been a commercial mortgage underwriter for more than 10 years, having underwritten several billion dollars of debt for investment banks, retail banks, and mortgage brokers. I'm in my early 30's and left my job in December to start an investment and development business, and while I have zero concerns about my ability to locate, price, finance, and lease property, I'm a little unsure of the management aspect. I've seen countless P&amp;L's, rent rolls, recovery invoices, etc., and I understand the math behind these items, but I've never used the software.

I'm closing on a ~30,000 sf 10-tenant office building very soon, and I have a ~60 unit warehouse loft apartment conversion in the works (still 1-2 years from completion as it's still in the approvals process). Is there any software that can reliably manage both office and apartment properties? I'm raising equity for other projects, so while my two current projects are small enough to self-manage in Excel, I'd like to become more sophisticated as I grow in order to provide investors with professional statements, as well as to have complete cohesion with the bookkeeper I'll hire eventually.

Thank you!

My vision is to keep everything in-house as my portfolio grows, not only to hold on to that extra 3%-5%, but also to better audit management-related expenses. I'll probably hire a property manager down the road, but since my holdings will be managable over the next few years, it will be a good opportunity to learn the management aspect as it's my only real weakness in terms of knowledge.   ", "replies": [{"id": "dij2srf", "text": "Sure, makes sense. I'm sure the mgmt fees are nice to hold onto for right now. Just seems like a lot for one person. In my mind your opportunity cost of self-managing is talking less to investors/looking for new opportunities and growing your AUM at a slower clip.\n\nHaving said that, congrats on following the dream. That's very exciting to hear even though I don't know you. \n\nOne thing you could do is interview a bunch of property managers in your area and see what software they use, if you still think you're better off doing it on your own, at least you have some property management contacts for down the road and an answer to your software question that's likely better than what you'll find on reddit.", "replies": [], "depth": 3}], "depth": 2}], "depth": 1}, {"id": "dik2vpj", "text": "You shouldn't be self managing these. There's way too much you don't know. Not worth the marginally improved CF for the increase in risk and the headache.\n\nI understand wanting to learn but you're going to learn by making mistakes - not the most efficient method.\n\nLike if you don't know what MRI or Yardi or Argus are and how they work with each other... You're better offer hiring this out. Do you have an accountant or financial management company or are you doing that yourself as well? Responding to hot and cold calls yourself? Chasing down A/R yourself? Fuck that noise.", "replies": [], "depth": 1}, {"id": "divu2bi", "text": "Argus is not that daunting. I learned the basics in a month and was modeling live deals.
