Paperless Office
Posted by Rerp on 02/22/09 in Business
While I do live in California, I’m not some kind of tree hugging hippy freak or anything. I do however care about our environment. I would like to leave as small a footprint as I can on this planet. In fact I would like to see us all leave as small a footprint as possible. So I am proactive about doing things like recycling and trying not to use natural resources that I don’t have to.
But since it is my job to sell San Diego real estate, you can imagine that I go through reams and reams of paper when San Diego real estate is booming. After all, have you seen just how many pages a standard real estate contract is? Then let’s start adding all of the needed addendums like the one for properties located within a home owners association or the extra ones you have to use for short sales. On top of that you have all of the loan paperwork, and so on and so forth.
I am proud to say that our office has taken a stand in this respect. We have gone to what they are calling a paperless office. Everything is done as PDF files now which can even be signed using electronic signatures. If somebody wants a physical copy of the paperwork, they have the option of printing it. But as for me, I am saving tons of money on paper and as an extra bonus on ink jet cartridges as well!
