@Kathleen Rothenberg Unfortunately your statement is too broad to respond to.

No tax returns or pay stubs required.  2 months bank statements, purchase contract, credit, appraisal and a few other documents and you're done.  

Check out Google sheets, they have a  template called "Financial Statements" by Xero that I am currently trying out.

We are currently teaching the 10 and 12 year old to create and use income statements and balance sheets.Best of luck with your endeavors and let me know if I can add value to your investing goals in anyway.R/Dan
