So I asked a "how to" question about 20 days ago. I got a few replies that pointed me toward a starting point. Nancy Neville was one reply, and was extremely gracious in accepting my apology after I insulted her. No, I wasn't drunk posting, I have no real excuse other than I am uninformed and frustrated. 

My situation is as follows:

• I have one property just acquired that I will be self-managing.
• I intend to purchase more properties, not quickly, that will likely be managed by a property manager. (Nancy's product page states property management is not supported.)
• On a scale of 1-5, I'm about a 2 on Quickbooks expertise. I own a copy of 2015 QB Premier.
• I learn best via a reference book, not video courses or learning modules. (Nor do I have the time for that.)
• I want to get everything set up correctly now.
• My budget is in the $100+ range, not $1000+.
• Templates would be ideal - QB company file, chart of accounts, forms, etc.

So....... suggestions?

Thanks!
