# Best Practices

> Tips for organizing and getting the most out of your Library

Get the most out of your Library with these tips.

## Name Files Clearly

Use descriptive names so you and your team can find files easily.

| Instead of...    | Use...                               |
| ---------------- | ------------------------------------ |
| Model\_v2.xlsx   | Multifamily Proforma Template.xlsx   |
| Assumptions.xlsx | 2024 Market Assumptions - Texas.xlsx |
| Template.docx    | LOI Template - Acquisition.docx      |

## Save Often

Every time you build something useful, save it to the Library.

**Good candidates to save:**

* A model you'll use again
* Market assumptions you researched
* Templates your firm uses regularly
* Files you improved or cleaned up

## Keep Files Updated

When you improve a model or template, save the new version to the Library. This keeps your firm working with the best versions.

<Info>
  Consider adding version numbers or dates to file names when you update them.

## Organize by Type

Group similar files together:

* **Models**: Proformas, underwriting templates, portfolio trackers
* **Templates**: LOIs, memos, reports
* **Assumptions**: Market data, cap rates, rent comps

## Share with Your Team

The Library is firm-wide. When you save something useful, your whole team benefits.

**Encourage your team to:**

* Save their best work
* Use existing templates instead of starting from scratch
* Update files when they find improvements
