 FEATURED TECHNOLOGY TOOL

 Easy Mile Log GPS Unit 

Track Personal and Professional Mileage   

Easy Mile Log Logo  

This tech tool is particularly useful to independent contractors, to help track every work-related mile traveled for tax deductions. Easy Mile Log GPS units plug into the cigarette lighter in a car and have a button that can be pressed to tell the device whether a trip is being made for personal or work reasons. The device can be plugged into a computer to obtain total mileage. It generates a report that can be printed or sent to an accountant. The data is saved on the device until deleted, providing back-up in case of an audit. For more info, visit www.easymilelog.com/  

If you have questions regarding this notice, please contact us at rarcommunications@rarealtors.com.
