The XIRR and IRR functions in Excel are nearly identical besides one critical difference: ✔️ Timing Assumptions - - The IRR formula assumes there are equal time periods of a year between the cash flows of a project.

Personally I don't find the one side bar ad all that intrusive for a free app with the functionality this has... the biggest complaint is that you can't make sub accounts (i.e. 1 expense account for a property with sub-accounts for each particular expense type) but you can export directly to MS Excel and re-arrange and graph however you want there if you needed to a higher level view to show someone.Hopefully this helps others interested in the program... not bad for free :)

But you will be 8k ahead if you don't buy a bootcamp.Keep in mind the biggest profits come from path of progress so its important to use deductive reasoning and research to understand what areas are declining and what areas are set for growth then buy in the path of said growth and dump anything in areas that are declining and functionally or economically obsolete.. 

In other words, you will fix things if they are broken but not replace things that are functioning correctly. 

The functionality needed is syncing calendar, managing requests, canned messages and review management. 

You can also check permits at the city building department.Not mentioned so far, is functional obsolescence: rooms with low ceilings, pass-thru bedrooms, too steep stairs, no place for appliances, etc.The challenge will be finding balance between an agent telling you any inspection issues are no big deal and freaking out about little things.
