You can also take photos of signs rather than writing the information down with pen and paper. A standard digital camera can work great, but in case you’re unfamiliar with the Flip Cam its a really nifty video camera. Simple one-button record and all you do is plug it right into your USB on your computer to save it or upload it to YouTube. Digital camera or Flip Cam: Perhaps this one isn’t a , but it can be incredibly helpful. I like to take a photo of the front of a house to jog my memory about it later when I know that its one that I’ll be finding and contacting a seller on. Pretty sweet and there’s even a HD version which will cost ~$200.


GPS: If you’re really short on funds, a GPS doesn’t need to be on the priority list, but if you can swing it (my Garmin Nuvi cost less than $125), do so! Having a GPS has been a major time saver for me when going to meet with sellers and check out properties. The other cool thing about having a GPS is when I’m driving around and see a vacant home or one is serious disrepair, I can grab the house number but then get the street number from my GPS without having to drive down the street to find the sign. Again, not a huge deal but definitely a time saver.
