Property Budget Tracking

Brian Smith

I was wondering if anyone has used something like YNAB for tracking their rental budgets while they are still small.  I know it wouldn't really be feasible once your portfolio has grown.  I currently use YNAB for all my personal stuff.  

My initial thought is to have a budget for each rental property that I own.  I would have categories setup for Vacancy, Repairs, CapEX, etc.  This way I can budget my percentage of each of those each month and see exactly where I am at dollar wise in each category.  Then when an expense comes up I can see exactly how much money I have available to use for that particular expense.  

Maybe I am overthinking this a bit as well but trying to iron out all the details for when I jump on my first property.
