in 2015 i took over a portfolio of buildings that were far out in rural areas, far from the corporate office. some of the corporate representatives like president, owners, regionals had not been to some of these locations in years. there was one building that the accounts in yardi were just so so so so so messed up. we worked with the manager and more training and tried and tried - and there were other issues. eventually lead to a termination. In cleaning out her office i found she was still keeping a hand written accounting ledger of charges, payments because she could never quite grasp the hang of the computer 2.0.1.5. !!

The monthly monster report, hand written, hand calculated, and a lot of work if you were off by $5 at the end. Hand posted rent on ledger cards that provided the information for the monster report. All adult for my first 14 years in the business. Kegs of beer at the pool every weekend. Master keys. The first TAA lease I used was only 1/2 page and the redbook was about 25 pages, spiral bound.
