We are closing on our first property either Friday or next Monday. I made a spreadsheet with our budget on XCEL but I have like 12 tabs - Bathroom has a tab, flooring has a tab, and so on, then I have a recap that shows Budget, Actual, Balance.

Do you guys think that's ok or do you recommend something else? I have it saved and here at work, if you want I can email it to you and you can give me suggestions or if you have a spreadsheet that has been successful for your business and you don't mind sharing it, my email address is [EMAIL REMOVED]

Any suggestions on a great software program for this?

I use excel for all my budgeting/proformas.

It's nice to be able to gear a financial model to do exactly what you want it to do rather than plugging info into another.
