Always looking to improve it.Thanks John  I have a lot more detail in my spreadsheet.I have:a tab for every property (about 35)who owns it as in which LLC or which SDIRAtenants name and contact infoAC filter size, trash day, utility provider and contact info, deposits, last months rent if applicable, move in date, rent amount, late fee per lease etc.Major repairs and dates (Roof, HVAC, water heater etc)I have a automatic running tally of how much they might be behind, if anyI have a summary tab that shows all payments so I can see in one place monthly gross income per entity (IRA vs non IRA owned properties.My tabs are color coded by ownership (Non IRA, SDIRA, Sol401k etca tab that shows ownership by LLC, tac Map ID and page/book where recorded with the Register of DeedsMy Asset protection structure of what LLC owns lower level LLC'c and who is top level ownership (a Trust)I have my STR income broken out on a tab by direct booking, Vrbo and Airbnb a tab for amortization of any loans I have out and payments (one for non IRA loans one for IRA loans)I have a Cap rate tab that shows my ROI by property (some are over 100% within first 3 years) because I bought cheap for cash. 

Here is more context on one of our business models and why sellers go with us:When we run our Concierge Program, which is our novation option, we operate a little differently than a traditional agent.Outside of utilizing a flat fee service to list the property, we also bring capital and structure to the table.First, we provide seller advances when needed.

Make sure your listing highlights the perks: furnished rooms, flexible lease terms, and utilities included.

The sneaky one is timeline because it makes the other two worse fast, a 30 to 60 day delay stacks interest, utilities, insurance, and extensions until the spread is gone.If you want to sanity check any deal, run rent or ARV based profit minus PITI or carry, minus utilities, minus 8 to 10 percent contingency, then see what two extra months does to the number.

Some key expense categories to track are maintenance and repairs, property management, insurance, utilities, landscaping, reserves, and capital expenditures.Also keep in mind your financing structure.

We are trying to figure out the best way to utilize our capital to build the rental income.Does it make more sense to rent our current home ($2,800-3,000/month) and use our savings to put a down payment on a second home?

Gold has a utility, Silver has a utility, BTC has no utility what so ever. 

Second, confirm what utilities are separately metered vs shared because that affects your bottom line.

The uglier the property, the less competition for it and hence, the lower the price.We've got an interactive map on our website that has color-coded the Classes of the 132 Metro Detroit Cities and 183 Detroit Neighborhoods to help investors understand where to invest.DM me if interested in chatting further...

It's not that a resident just becomes a number, rather that you can only retain so many interactions had in a day.Fair Housing is the main point that comes to mind, but I also think that a separate point that Brandon is making is to get in the habit of documenting everything.
