Not selling anything and there's no sign up. I'm looking for ideas from people who run files every day. A little different than the typical "CRM" posted here but it is in a similar vein of tracking data.

I work DSCR, fix and flip, new construction and multifamily loans, and I got tired of tracking needs lists, title and insurance orders, rate locks and close dates across a dozen places. So I built my own system, and it now runs a pipeline of 100+ loans.

What it does so far:

- One page per file, from first call to closing

- Paste a lender's conditions email and it becomes a needs list, split into borrower, entity, property, title and insurance

- Follow ups tracked per list (borrower vs title vs insurance), so you know what went out and when

- Title and insurance orders written from what's already on the file

- A flag when a rate lock or close date is five business days out

There's a demo with made-up loans if you want to click around. It gives you your own private copy and resets every night: link in comments.

What I actually want to know:

1. What do you still track by hand, in a spreadsheet, or in your head?

2. What's the thing that slips on your busiest weeks?

3. If you tried the demo, what felt missing or clunky?

Appreciate any thoughts, even "I'd never use this because..."
