- Save your moneyAnyone still thinking about buying this should look somewhere else - use MS money or a spreadsheet. Not only is it not very useful, but you can't even update the mileage rate on your own so you can't generate a correct end of year report. Quicken customer support says it will be in the next release. Well, it's already two years old with no updates in sight. Save your money and buy something else. I've always heard great things about Intuit but this and another of their popular tax programs have both been a major disappointment. Rating: - Quicken Real estate BlackMail schemeI bought this product in 2005 with big hopes that quickly fell short. There were several updates made to the system which were provided automatically if you used the default setup. With the new release of Version 2.5, it appears that Quicken has decided to not allow previous users to Auto Update the software if they re-install it or try to install it on a new computer. Here's the catch.. Older versions wont open your files once the auto update runs and your files get saved. After a painful 3 hours attempting to get an answer from customer service, I received an email telling me that the only way to open my files was pay an additional $100 to buy the newest version of the product. So, they have effectively blackmailed anyone who previously bought the product into buying it again to get to their files, if they have computer problems and have to reinstall the software. This software is not ready for prime time. It beats a shoe box but if you have an issue with the software be prepared to go through all your receipts and manual figure out your income/expense sheets. No, the backup files don't open either. Rating: - Disappointed and NOT recommendedThis is the first piece of Quicken software that has ever really let me down. Quicken Rental Property Manager 2.0 has turned out to be a fancy interface for a spreadsheet. While it will keep tenant information and track income and expenses by property, that's about all it will do. Do not expect to be abe to issue rent receipts or anything else. Buyer beware! Rating: - not worth buyingquicken's rental property management(QRPM) IS FLAWED IN SO MANY WAYS IT IS NOT WORTH BUYING. I BOUGHT IT WITHOUT EVEN INVESTIGATING IT BASED ON INTUIT'S REPUTATION. I WISH I HAD LOOKED AT THESE REVIEWS FIRST. NOW I'M JUST OUT A BUNCH OF MONEY FOR A PROGRAM THAT PENCIL AND PAPER WOULD DO BETTER Rating: - Perfect for that small investorThis product is very easy to navigate. Very intuitive. If you are just starting your real estate investing, this is the software to help you keep things straight.
