Quote from @Lisa Broderick: Crazy that anyone would think that's a good investment.I learned what I needed to know by reading a few books and asking questions online.

I'd attack the credit report :) 1) lower (pay down) whatever accounts have a high utilization percentage 2) contact each of 3 major consumer credit agencies and get a free report, then dispute every hard inquiry that is *NOT* associated with an open account 3) call the credit cards you already have established and ask for a credit line increase -- often can be done online and they do not verify income, hint hint. 

There are a TON of online communities as well, and perhaps those groups online have some individuals not too far away from you.Hope this helps!

In another year as interest rates come down, and the boom of cabins that came online over the last two years starts to get sucked in, I think there's going to be a return to solid and steady growth in demand for new cabins.I love my numbers eithe way though.

Go to Etsy and search for "rental property tracker," and you will find hundreds of nice spreadsheets to track 10-20 rentals, usually for under $10.Software has extremely helpful features like online payments, marketing syndication (click a button, and your property is advertised on multiple sites), electronic document review/signing, maintenance tracking, and owner reports.

The free apps usually provide less functionality than the paid ones.Reviews: Be sure to read online reviews before making a decision.
